DJI Avata 360: New drone revealed in hands-on footage before global release

The DJI Avata 360 has reappeared before its anticipated release. For context, the Avata 360 has been rumoured for about as long as the Osmo Pocket 4. This time, the unreleased drone has appeared in hands-on photos across two leaks.

On the one hand, Xdrones Studio has shared a photo of the Avata 360 itself with its retail box behind it. Embedded at the bottom of the article, provides one of the clearest looks yet at DJI's first 360-degree drone. Also, the photo reiterates that the Avata 360 can rotate its camera housing to capture first-person view (FPV) footage like the Avata 2 before it (curr. $719 on Amazon). Incidentally, the Antigravity A1 is incapable of shooting FPV footage.

On the other hand, a Redditor has spotted someone selling the Avata 360 on Facebook Marketplace. Although the Facebook Marketplace does not show the drone itself, the pictures provided corroborate the retail box design visible in Xdrones Studio's image. Currently, leakers like Jasper Ellens believe that the Avata 360 will debut next month in China. Pricing is rumoured to be starting at CNY 2,988 (~$435); a global launch could occur in early April.
