the Osmo Pocket? a nice toy with many limitations including the battery. A consideration on the limitation of the OP battery, an hour or so. if I go out for a whole day to shoot, how can I recharge the OP when it is attached to the iPhone? in my opinion it is very limited in autonomy. how do you do? what is your experience?

You can use a power bank while using the Pocket.

Power pack connected to USB C, Although you say it’s limited and won’t work all day this is true, but if you need something to work all day this was not the best choice, I think the fact it works continually for 1 hour 40 is a great plus for this Camera, so many other cameras battery lasts 30 minutes before you need to change them and this can also be a pain , also the fact you can hook up to a battery pack is a plus and can give you up to two extra hours footage.

Hi, we do appreciate your feedback with our Osmo Pocket. Our Osmo Pocket can be charged while it's being used, however, it is recommended to use Osmo Pocket when it is fully charged. If you use Osmo Pocket during charging, the battery will generate heat, which shortens the battery life. Thank you for understanding.

So what you're saying in other words is that the use of a battery pack for all day recording will shorten the battery of the Osmo Pocket?  In order to use the camera only when the camera is fully charged, is somewhat limiting me or preventing me from capturing a great moment.  This is why DJI, you must add removable batteries or have a battery exchange program for all osmo pocket users regardless where we purchased our camera.  You see, I have a valid reason to say this.  This weekend I used the camera at an event and the battery didn't last for more than an hour filming some short 15-20 second clips in 4k and 1080 60 .  So I must set it down and wait for it to charge?  No, I used a battery pack to get through the night.  Please DJI, make sure you include a removable battery next time.  Don't get me wrong, the osmo pocket is a great little camera but is totally useless when the battery dies and I don't have a way to swap for another one.
