DJI Launches Osmo Mobile 8 With Apple DockKit and 360° Pan, But No U.S. Sales

The new smartphone gimbal rolls out globally as U.S. availability remains halted due to ongoing regulatory and customs hurdles affecting DJI products.

Overview

  • The Osmo Mobile 8 introduces native Apple DockKit support, enabling subject tracking in the iPhone Camera app and more than 200 compatible iOS apps.
  • A detachable Multifunctional Module delivers app-free tracking, a bright adjustable fill light, and a receiver for DJI Mic transmitters, and it now tracks dogs and cats.
  • The gimbal adds unlimited 360-degree horizontal rotation and seventh‑generation three‑axis stabilization, while the Mimo app offers ActiveTrack 7.0/7.0.1 with Dual Lens Boost and Smart Capture.
  • DJI says the device is available internationally at roughly $149/€159, but it is not being sold through official channels in the United States.
  • Key specs include a 370 g weight, up to 10 hours of operation, USB‑C phone charging, and an integrated extension rod and tripod, with Osmo Mobile 7/7P still on sale in the U.S.
