I have this thing and has been using it for the past 2 months. And from me, who has both this and an iPhone 15 pro max, and with zero photography/videography experience, those who said that this thing does not take much better video then their phone is insane.

I will say that the video taken by this device is miles better than your typical phone video in the following aspects:
1/ Way smoother video
2/ Wayyyy better nighttime/low light video, especially when you record when walking
3/ Much more beautiful natural background blur (not computational blur), making your video look so professional.

I do agree that photowise, this thing does not take better photo than your phone.

Technically full Costco price, but a decent deal given its most of Creator Combo. Likely will see this closer to 450 or 400 for November/December.

People downvoting me have no idea what they are talking about. They are comparing to just the camera, which is $519 (so this is a great deal compared to that). But the Creator combo is $669 with everything here plus a mic. This is everything except the $90 mic. If you NEED the mic, this combo is around 10% off at best lol. Y'all gotta math harder.

"Includes: 64GB SD card, Battery Handle and Mini Tripod"

I guess the extra battery comes in the form of a Battery Handle.
And no, this is NOT the creator combo which comes with mic.

Sam's club has a similar combo with 128GB sd card but no mini tripod for $498.

It's missing the case and the wide angle lens too. Dollar-for-dollar the Creator Combo is better value, but those accessories aren't as essential.

If they did a $549 Costco Creator Combo with the mic and case that would be a helluva deal.

I'll wait to see what iPhone 16 is like Monday too before buying. This technically competes with smartphone cameras.

This is a great deal. Just the pocket 3 itself is MSRP $519. This is similar to the creator's bundle but missing the mic, granted it's always OOS elsewhere and the low supply this is a good or great deal, not slick.
I saw people using these cameras at some events but personally never used them.
Why is the Mic AKA creator's bundle cost over $70 and want to know without this Mic, the recorded videos doesn't have sound?

Is not waterproof means it can't handle any rain at all? Or just heavy rain ?

It does have a built-in microphone, you don't have to buy an external mic

Would this be better than a GoPro for recording a roadtrip from inside the car (maybe attaching it to the passenger seat headrest)? I'm assuming the stabilization would smooth out the occassional bumps and vibrations.

Honestly DJI or Insta are far better than GoPro, GoPro for reliability and straight out of the box recording stinks.

Decent, not great price. The creator combo is where the best value is because the Mic2 with this is a great pair. Mic2 connects directly to this, and you can start/stop recording directly with the mic2. Sound with Mic2 is also solid and can be done from long distance. The only downside to OP3 is it will heat up in hot summer conditions and then stop to cool down. I'd buy it again as it's completely replaced my iPhone as a video recorder. Useless for photos though.

*** Update! ***

This deal just got better! My order just arrived and on the front cover of the retail shrink-wrapped DJI bundle box it shows a Pocket 3 along with 'includes micro SD card, a mini tripod and a battery handle." But on the back of the box it lists what is inside the box which includes all of the above plus a protective cover, a handle with 1/4" thread, a wrist strap, a USB-C cable and manuals. Inside are the advertized three items including a shrink wrapped DJI box with the Pocket 3. That smaller box has the additional accessories not mentioned on Costco's web site! (Still no transmitter but if you need it that can be purchased new seperately for $100.)

Update: it does come with a protective case and a second handle with the 1/4" thread. See my previous comment for details.

Good to know. I'm considering this and likely will wait for price drop during holidays. Iphone is too expensive and i would think holding a stick like device is easier to film in and less conspicuous than a smartphone. I do have a Pixel 7 Pro which i think is great for photos, but considering shooting more videos when i go on vacation. So this package is like the creator combo except without the mic?
