DJI Osmo Mobile 2 Now Available

We first told you about the new DJI Osmo Mobile 2 smarthphone gimbal back in November.  Originally released in partnership with Apple, and officially launched at CES2018, the new Osmo Mobile 2 is less than half the price of the original Osmo Mobile and has 3x the battery life.

We own the original Osmo Mobile and there are so many improvements in the new model:

  • huge 15 hour battery life
  • slightly smaller form factor
  • gimbal arms nest for more compact storage
  • Osmo Mobile 2 charges your smartphone while in use
  • new & improved Osmo Base accessory
  • standard tripod screw mount in base of handle

Our order says shipping in 3-5 days, which is much better than we had been told by DJI staff last month.

Unlike the original Osmo Mobile, the OM2 doesn’t have swappable batteries…so once you’re charge is done, it’s done.  But with 15 hours, you should have more than enough power to get your shots.  And if you don’t you can always use a portable power bank to keep the Osmo Mobile 2 going.

$129 at store.dji.com, Shipping in 3-5 days
