The DJI Lito 1 will be the entry-level model in the lineup, while the X1 will be higher-end variant.
DJI’s upcoming Lito 1 and Lito X1 drones have leaked with French pricing starting at €339 (~$339). The sub-249 g series launches on April 23, with 5G-ready O5 transmission and LiDAR obstacle avoidance expected.

As per past reports, DJI is gearing up to launch a new drone category dubbed the Lito series on April 23 at 12:00 GMT. While official teasers have only confirmed the "Just Fly" tagline and product names, a fresh leak from Dealabs has revealed the full pricing structure for the French market. The release date for said drones is scheduled for April 23 - shortly after the April 16 launch of the Osmo Pocket 4 and the April 20 launch of company's new portable power station.

The Lito 1 will hit the market as an entry-level model, likely replacing the aging Mini 4K (curr. $269 on Amazon) and Mini 3. Pricing starts at €339 (~$399) for the standalone unit paired with the RC-N3 controller. Reportedly, this model will carry 22 GB of internal storage and a 30-minute flight time. For those who need more accessories, the Fly More Combo is expected to retail for €479 (~$564).

The Lito X1 is expected to be the more advanced variant in this lineup - it will likely compete with the Mini Pro series. While early rumors suggested a price near $700, the latest info hints towards a more aggressive €419 (~$493) starting point. This model reportedly includes 42 GB of internal storage and a LiDAR-based obstacle avoidance system. A top-tier "Fly More Combo Plus" featuring the RC 2 controller is listed at €759 (~$894).

Both drones are designed to stay under the 249 g weight limit to avoid heavy regulatory restrictions in most regions. A major highlight is the rumored O5 transmission system, which may use 5G cellular connectivity for better range in urban environments. Both units utilize a foldable design with orange-tipped propellers and a three-axis gimbal.

The Lito series was already confirmed through FCC filings in late 2025, so these models should go on sale in the US as well, despite ongoing import scenarios. Apart from the internal storage and weight, we don't have specific info regarding specific camera sensor sizes or maximum video resolutions. Final availability is set for late April following the global reveal next week.
