Nowadays, everyone wants to record their daily lives and smartphones have become the main video recording tool due to their convenience and continuously improving image quality. However, the strong development of content creation, especially YouTubers and TikTokers, has created a new demand for specialized cameras.
In this context, DJI Osmo Pocket 3 was born as a solution to this new demand. As the latest version in the DJI Osmo Pocket series, this device combines high-quality video recording capabilities with a compact and flexible design. This makes the Osmo Pocket 3 extremely convenient for capturing daily moments, during travel, or even for professional content production.

The DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is not cheap, with the standard version (including the device) priced at 12.99 million VND and the Creator Combo version (including the device and some accessories) priced at 15.89 million VND.
However, it is currently difficult to own the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 in Vietnam. Due to high demand combined with limited supply, the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is currently relatively scarce in Vietnam, and users often have to wait or buy at a higher price if they want to own one soon.
So, what makes DJI Osmo Pocket 3 so special that it receives such great attention?
Compact and easy to handle
The most obvious difference when using the Osmo Pocket 3 compared to other cameras is the size and weight. With dimensions of only 139.7×42.2×33.5 mm and a weight of 179g, the Osmo Pocket 3 is significantly smaller than most traditional cameras and even large smartphones.

Integrated gimbal camera
In addition to its compact design, the stabilization capability of the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is also a highlight. With a 3-axis mechanical gimbal, the Osmo Pocket 3 provides smooth and stable video recording even in fast-moving or strong shaking situations. This is especially important for vloggers who often need to record videos while on the move, helping them create high-quality footage without worrying about shaky footage affecting video quality.

Easy to rotate horizontally/vertically, front/back
One of the factors that makes the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 ideal for vloggers is its flexible design, suitable for both horizontal and vertical video recording. This ensures that content creators can easily adapt to different platforms such as YouTube for horizontal videos and TikTok for vertical videos without having to change recording devices.
