DJI is planning to release a new addition to its lineup of compact drones sometime in the near future, if the rumour mill is to be believed. The Neo 3 has made a few unofficial appearances here and there, revealing some details on its design and features. Now, a recent leak has shed more light on the upcoming device, highlighting a notable upgrade from the Neo 2.
Unsurprisingly, this leak came from seasoned tipster Igor Bogdanov, who had previously shared images of the drone’s retail packaging. In his most recent X post dated 2 October 2026, the leakster shared an image listing the Neo 3’s key specifications. Based on this picture, the device will feature a large 1/1.1-inch square sensor with “true vertical shooting”. To recap, the current model launched with a 1/2-inch sensor, so this would be a pretty major upgrade.
