I've been looking to purchase an Inspire sometime this year. Was just curious to know if there will be a Inspire 2 with a better camera for the same price of the current Inspire 1 v2.0.

Question is: when is tomorrow for the Inspire 2? I'm little scared to spend 5k euros and after one month or 2 there will be a new super cool version of the Inspire.

To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die, to sleep….......

To Die, To Sleep, and to wait for that which is "coming soon".
Verily 'tis folly to pass the days in futile pursuit of golden prize nor a camera that can shoot RAW..
Neither a purse full to bursting nor supplication to the lords of shenzen can make it so.

Bingo! It's just like buying a computer...There is a faster one just around the corner. And always hits the market right after you buy the current model. If you keep waiting you won't fly.

No right thinking company will tell you there's a new model just about to hit the market as they first want to get rid of the current stock piling up in warehouses...business.

You are kidding, right? NO offense to DJI but they are a business and the primary goal of every business is to maximize profits, not to worry about your or my happiness. All US companies do it, not just DJI.
Any company would be nuts to announce a new product when the current version is still selling like hot cakes. Marketing 101.

For short I'm sure they are working on Inspire 2 with obstacle avoidance and same stuff as the Phantom 4 but seeing as Inspire Pro and Inspire 2.0 has been released only few months ago it might take them a while.

There will always be new aircraft coming out with better and better features. It's just part of the game.

There will NOT be an Inspire  physical update for at least a year if it's even in development.  How do I know this?  Because I used to work for IBM ad Intel and know the manufacturing process from cradle to grave.  DJI just released the Inspire 2.0.  That means they're done with the Inspire's physical updates as their big "push" just happened with the 2.0 and the Inspire is still their "badass" model...so I do not see a substational update happening for probably a couple of years with a new model/version.
However, do not buy the 2.0, unless you can't find any of the old ones.  All they did was update the Gimbal mount and larger motors.  Almost EVERY video I've seen so far has said it's not worth the 1000 dollar jump to the Inspire 2.0 when you can get the Inspire 1.0 for 2599...and spend the extra money on more batteries or a quick charger.

Inspire is an incredibly stable UAV - I am flying mine for a year and it still feels like new, windproof, foolproof. Compare that to an accident every 3rd flight Ive had with Phantom 1+ zenmuse Ive had before.

Therefore an Inspire 2 wont be able to reach existing Inspire owners. Others will be so excited about Phantom 4 that launching new Inspire at the same time wouldnt be wise spend of marketing and engineering money.

Heres what'll happen in my view.
ActiveTrack looks purely software function which will be there with an update to DJI GO and firmware
TapFly - same. Kudos to DJI developers.
Obstacle avoidance will be available as standalone module, just because every Inspire 1 owner would buy it to protect a 3-4k investment depending on camera. It is already available as Matrice 100 module and I see no reason why it shouldnt be for Inspire.

The only thing which would make me change gears is 8-rotor coaxial costing same as old Inspire frame, which is not that hard to achieve. Not now, in 8-12 months, fully compatible with all Inspire parts - batteries, remotes, cameras. And - able to carry 2 batteries as Matrice to give it 30 minutes of flight time. That would be cool enough to be called Inspire 2.

I think you need to think about what you actually need instead of just buying "the latest and coolest" drone.
For me, the Inspire 1 Pro just isn't a complete all-in-one package as they are advertising it as. I think the Inspire 1 Pro still lack a few very important features, such as a dedicated pilot camera.
I think DJI easily could have incorporated this in the "Pro" If they wanted but in the end keeping it on hold for the next Inspire. This feature alone I think will give the Inspire series a new sale-boost since a lot of people are asking about it.
Personally I would not buy an Inspire 1 Pro until it's truly "all-in-one".

If your are not thinking about having the Inspire 1 Pro as a dual setup I think it's a pretty good system.
