Video
Resolution and frame rate split cleanly. The DJI Osmo 360 records 8K and hits 120 fps at 4K, which is what you want if you plan to reframe a shot after the fact or deliver in a wide format. The Osmo Pocket 4P tops out at 4K and 60 fps for normal recording, enough for standard delivery but with no room to crop in post.
The Pocket 4P answers with 240 fps in Slow Motion mode at 4K or 1080p, and a 12x digital zoom against the Osmo 360's 1x. That makes it the better tool for grabbing distant subjects or stretching a moment out. Note that zoom and slow motion are separate modes: the Osmo 360's fixed 1x view means you move closer instead of zooming, and the Pocket 4P's zoom is unavailable in Slow Motion and Timelapse.
Photo and colors
The Osmo 360 shoots 120 MP stills against 37 MP on the Pocket 4P, but that number reflects a 360 sphere stitched from both lenses rather than a sharper single frame. If you plan to print or crop deeply, the Pocket 4P is the safer bet because it writes RAW files and the Osmo 360 does not.
The Osmo 360 does record 10-bit color with a log profile, so it tolerates more grading before banding than the Pocket 4P, whose bit depth and log support are not published. Neither camera offers HDR video, and the Pocket 4P's HDR status is likewise unlisted.
Stabilization and screens
This is the biggest practical difference. The Osmo Pocket 4P uses a three-axis mechanical gimbal that steadies footage while recording, which is why it holds up in handheld walking shots. The Osmo 360 relies on in-camera stabilization, which is strong for a 360 camera but not the same class. The Osmo 360 does add horizon lock, a feature the Pocket 4P does not list.
Both use a single 2-inch flip touchscreen with no front display, so framing yourself means flipping the same panel. The Pocket 4P's screen is brighter at 1,000 nits versus 800, a real advantage in direct sun.
Battery, storage and size
The Osmo 360 is the smaller and lighter body at 183 g against 230 g, and its battery is removable, so you can carry spares instead of stopping to charge. Its cell is also larger at 1,950 mAh. The Pocket 4P counters with a 210-minute claimed runtime at 1080p/24 against 190 minutes, but real-world numbers run lower and that is a lab figure. Its battery removal status is unlisted.
Built-in storage is a near tie, 105 GB versus 103 GB, and both take cards up to 1,024 GB. In practice the Osmo 360's removable battery matters more than the capacity gap, because a long day of 8K shooting will outlast any single charge.
Durability and conditions
The Osmo 360 is the tougher tool. It is rated waterproof to 10 m without a case, and it operates from -20 °C to 45 °C. The Pocket 4P publishes no waterproof depth at all, and its stated range is 0 °C to 40 °C, so cold mornings and wet environments are a genuine risk.
If your shooting happens near water, snow or freezing air, that gap alone settles the decision. The Pocket 4P is best treated as fair-weather gear.
The Verdict
Buy the DJI Osmo 360 if you want to capture everything around you in one pass, shoot in 8K, or work near water and in the cold. Buy the DJI Osmo Pocket 4P if you need a gimbal-smooth handheld shot, RAW stills, long zoom reach or 240 fps slow motion. Choose the Osmo 360 when the conditions are hard and the framing is decided later. Choose the Pocket 4P when the subject is fixed, distant and you want it steady and sharp.

FAQ
Can the DJI Osmo Pocket 4P be used underwater?
Not on the published specs. No waterproof depth is listed for the Pocket 4P, while the Osmo 360 is rated to 10 m without a case. Treat the Pocket 4P as dry-land gear.
Does the DJI Osmo 360 have a zoom?
Effectively no. Its max digital zoom is 1x, so you move closer to your subject. The Pocket 4P reaches 12x, though zoom is disabled in Slow Motion and Timelapse.
Which camera is better for cold weather?
The DJI Osmo 360. Its operating range reaches down to -20 °C, while the Pocket 4P is listed only to 0 °C, and its built-in battery means the range covers the whole camera.
Can I remove the battery on either camera?
The Osmo 360 has a removable battery, so you can swap spares mid-shoot. Removability is not published for the Pocket 4P, so plan on charging in place.
Do either of these shoot HDR video?
The Osmo 360 does not, and HDR support is not published for the Pocket 4P. Neither is a safe pick if HDR delivery is a hard requirement.
