The Osmo 360 II cleared the FCC one day before the Covered List action. DJI still has no U.S. price for it.

FCC ID 2ANDR-OQ0022512 was granted December 21, 2025. That makes the camera eligible for U.S. sale in a way the Pocket 4 and Mic Mini 2S are not, and DJI's September 3 announcement has named no U.S. market.

Decision brief

This is the clearest live example of how the Covered List actually works. The rule turns on the equipment authorization date, not the product category. If DJI does not offer the Osmo 360 II in the U.S. after Thursday's 7 a.m. EDT announcement, the reason is not the FCC. Watch the announcement, and check the FCC ID on any listing before you buy a grey import.

The authorization

Granted December 21. Covered List December 22. Eligible on the record.

The FCC equipment authorization for the Osmo 360 II, grantee code 2ANDR, product code OQ0022512, carries a grant date of December 21, 2025. The FCC added DJI to the Covered List on December 22. A Covered List entry blocks new equipment authorizations; it leaves authorizations already granted in force, and the FCC's firmware waiver extends software support for already-authorized equipment through at least January 1, 2029. On the record, the camera is eligible to be imported and sold in the United States.

The silence

Launched in China, teased for Thursday, no American price.

DJI launched the Osmo 360 II in China on August 13 with 8K/60 recording and replaceable lenses, quoted no price outside China, and has since posted a teaser dating its next announcement to September 3, 2026 at 7 a.m. EDT. Retail pre-orders have appeared at U.S. dealers without an official U.S. price. DJI's U.S. site does not list the camera. The company has not said why a product it is free to sell here has gone three weeks without an American number.

The contrast is the Pocket 4, the Pocket 4P, and the Mic Mini 2S, whose authorizations landed after the December 22 cutoff and which cannot be imported or sold as new in the U.S. under the current rule. Same manufacturer, same season, opposite outcomes, decided by a date in an FCC database. That is the mechanism buyers keep asking about when they search whether DJI is banned, and it is why the FCC's July rule requiring FCC IDs on marketplace listings matters at the checkout page.

What to watch

Thursday's price, if there is one, is the first post-tariff DJI number for the U.S.

A tariff complicates any U.S. price DJI does announce. The proclamation signed August 13 applies from September 3 to unmanned aircraft systems and listed components; a handheld camera is not an aircraft, but accessories that ship with drones can fall under the component annexes. If Thursday brings a U.S. price, it will be the first DJI consumer product priced for this market after both the Covered List action and the tariff, and it will say a great deal about what DJI expects from the U.S. for the rest of 2026.
