Meanwhile the Air 4 took its biggest step yet toward a launch that will skip America, and Insta360 started writing the 360 category's price list in DJI's silence. Five stories, in priority order, with our take on each.

Last week we said the US door keeps opening for everyone but DJI; this week DJI showed what it's building instead. The teased 'new drone' landed as a safety parachute, a brand-new eVTOL class debuted on top of Everest, the Insta360 X6 leaked wearing the Osmo 360's body — and a mystery model code cleared Chinese certification. Five stories, in priority order, with our take on each.
Last week DJI answered everywhere but America; this week the asymmetry turned concrete — Insta360's X6 sailed through the exact US FCC certification the Covered List denies DJI's new gear. DJI did what it still can: it widened the Pocket 4 Pro's non-US rollout and teased a third straight enterprise drone, while the World Cup crackdown blew past 500 seizures and reached CNN. Five stories, in priority order, with our take on each.
