Insta360 May Challenge DJI Neo 2 with Rumored 360-Degree Drone

Leaked patents and prototype images suggest Insta360 may be developing a compact, foldable drone with enclosed propellers and a built-in 360-degree camera.

The rumored device appears designed for creators, with a focus on portability, safety, and creator-friendly capture tools.

If accurate, the drone could launch in late 2026 or early 2027 and compete directly with DJI’s Neo 2.

The move could intensify pressure in the compact consumer drone market by pairing 360 video with a safer, more portable design.
