I use a DJI Osmo Pocket 3 every single week to help film Today I’m Toying With, and I love it to pieces. The baby steadicam’s one of the most popular gadgets the company’s ever sold, because it’s so good at automatically capturing stabilized video of whatever I want, far better than a phone. What I don’t love is how DJI jacked up the price of this gadget twice this year — but a new sale brings it almost all the way back to pre-Trump tariff levels, and the clone version is now even cheaper.

But I’d probably recommend the Creator Combo, which is now $240 off today (see links below). I find myself using some of its extra parts almost every single week. For instance, I use the battery handle when I’m filming timelapse video — and I’m speaking into the DJI Mic 2 wireless lapel mic for my narration in the video below, even though I mostly filmed this one with an iPhone.

The DJI Pocket 3 Creator Combo is $739 today at B&H, Adorama, Best Buy, Walmart, and Micro Center, and it also comes with: a mini tripod, a tripod handle with USB-C passthrough so it can charge while on the tripod, a wide-angle lens that doesn’t give quite enough width for my needs, a carrying bag that holds everything, and a hardshell carrying sleeve I sometimes throw into my backpack just to protect the camera and lenses. Here’s the whole set:

None of these prices are quite as low as DJI’s pre-tariff prices of $519 for the camera and $669 for the Creator Combo, but they’re the best we’ve seen since April and the first major sale on the camera.

Alternatively, if you want almost exactly the same camera without support for DJI’s wireless microphones, Amazon has the Xtra Muse for $500 today thanks to an on-page coupon. As I discuss in my full report, it appears to be the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 by a different name, not your run-of-the-mill clone. It produces the same high-quality footage with the same steadiness, just with no DJI Mic support.
