The Mavic 4 Pro is coming to Canada and Mexico, but not the USA (for now).
DJI’s highly anticipated Mavic 4 Pro drone might not see an official release in the United States, according to industry sources. While the company has not confirmed this officially, the potential absence of a US launch could be a major setback for drone enthusiasts and professionals awaiting the next-generation model.
Why the Mavic 4 Pro Could Be Skipping the US Market
The decision may stem from increasing regulatory pressures and ongoing geopolitical tensions between the US and China. DJI has faced scrutiny from US authorities over data security concerns, leading to restrictions on its drones for government and enterprise use. If the Mavic 4 Pro does not launch in the US, it would mark a significant shift in DJI’s strategy for one of its most important markets.
Leaked Specs & Upgrades: What to Expect
Despite the uncertain US availability, leaked specifications suggest the Mavic 4 Pro will be a major upgrade over its predecessor. Key expected features include:
Advanced camera system (potentially with a 1-inch or larger sensor)
360-degree obstacle avoidance for safer flight navigation
Extended battery life (possibly exceeding 40 minutes per charge)
Enhanced AI-powered tracking for improved subject recognition
Alternative Options for US Buyers
If the Mavic 4 Pro doesn’t arrive in the US, consumers might consider:
DJI’s existing models, such as the Mavic 3 Pro or Air 3
Competing drones from Autel, Skydio, or Insta360
Purchasing through international retailers (with potential drawbacks like higher costs and limited service coverage)
Final Verdict: Will DJI Change Course?
As of now, DJI has not officially commented on the US launch status of the Mavic 4 Pro. The situation remains fluid, and there’s still a possibility of a last-minute reversal. For now, US-based drone pilots should stay updated on official announcements or prepare to look for alternatives.
