The DJI Osmo Pocket 3 has been with me on my travels since this year, including accessories of course. The K&F Concept charging adapter is a new accessory that makes certain things easier.
The adapter is small, light, hardly noticeable on the Osmo and still offers the option of charging the Osmo via USB-C if necessary. The Osmo can still be mounted using a normal tripod thread or combined with the action mount from various other manufacturers. For me, however, the ARCA compatibility of the K & F mount was important, as I often travel with the camera and a tripod.
All 3 connections work smoothly. I tested the ARCA compatibility with a Gitzo and a Sirui tripod, both work perfectly. The pictures show the Osmo with the adapter on the Gitzo, while charging it using a power bank. It works great and from now on this is my ideal setup for time-lapse recordings.
The workmanship is, as we have come to expect from K & F, top-notch. Cleanly processed metal and everything runs very precisely. The attachment to the Osmo is also solved with the two side claws, just like I know from the original accessories. It holds perfectly and charges reliably when connected to a power source.
The bottom line is that the charging and tripod adapter from K&F Concept for the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is worth every penny. This little thing has become indispensable if I want to mount my Osmo somewhere. I therefore recommend buying it and give it a well-deserved 5 stars. Really well done K & F, a useful accessory!

Compact packaging like the adapter but in addition we find the classic Action Cam support and related screw.
The adapter is very simple but functional, perfectly built in aluminum and is really well finished.
It attaches to the sides of the Osmo Pocket 3, as well as fitting into the Type-C port which is then replaced by an additional female USB-C on the back.
On the bottom there are the GoPro-style "tabs" to attach it to many adapters and they close magnetically, as well as having the 1/4"" hole.
With this adapter it is possible to use the Osmo in Action mode, with a stability that only it can offer. In addition to holding it upright if placed on a surface, useful for making Motion Lapses for example.

The K&F Concept charging adapter for the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is truly a (small) masterpiece of engineering! The combination of Type-C charging station and Arca-Swiss standard is perfectly thought out and offers excellent flexibility for any type of photography setup. The quality of the adapter's workmanship is first-class - the aluminum alloy feels extremely robust and durable.
A highlight is definitely the click lock, which sits rock-solid and thus guarantees safety and stability. The small magnets that hold the folding finger in position when not in use are also a brilliant idea. They prevent parts from flying around loose and ensure clean and tidy storage.
In addition, the 1/4 screw holes are super practical for effortlessly attaching the adapter to various tripod or mounting systems. Overall, the K&F Concept charging adapter is an extremely high-quality and well-thought-out solution for every DJI Osmo Pocket 3 owner. Highly recommended!

Excellent charging base/adapter
What's in the box
1 x K&F Concept Charging Adapter Base
1 x Gopro mount adapter
1 x Thumb screw
Build quality
The build quality that you are presented with regarding the K&F Concept Charging Adapter Base can only be described as Premium-grade
Material quality
The materials used are an all aluminium unit, and again in my opinion can only be classed as Premium grade materials
Charging speed
The charging speed that you will get from the K&F Concept Charging Adapter Base is identical to the charging speed that you'd have when you just had the DJI USB extension handle on, so you will not lose any of the charging speed benefits that the original DJI handle presents.
You have the option of using either the ¼inch thread or the traditional GoPro style mounting method, which I personally think is very beneficial, especially if you want to add a duel cold shoe mount for a light and also shotgun mic along with adding the tripod or selfie stick to use as well.
This would most definitely be one to add to your Osmo Pocket 3 collection, and I would highly recommend the K&F Concept Charging Adapter Base to anyone who has this amazing device.
An easy 5 out of 5 stars from me

Let me start by saying this is a great quality product. All-metal, ergonomic, refined. But it's a lot of money for such a small thing. Is it worth it?
- It helps the Pocket 3 stand up a touch more stablely than it does alone
- It provides a 1/4 20 mounting screw on the base.... which ter pocket 3 has anyway
- It provides a USB-C charging point.... which the Pocket 3 has anyway.
- It provides a conversion option to an action-cam mounting system.
So really, the value here is the last bit - an action cam mount. They do give you the mount too. Disappointly it's the standard brittle cheapish-ish plastic mount that seems to be generic, rather than something if a higher quality like the base plate. Frankly it feels like a generic one they purchased elsewhere and bundled in the box.
The action cam mount is sping loaded to snap back to flat. It can be a little difficult to pull both out because as you let go of one side to open the other, the first one snaps close again. A button to flip them out would be nice.

DJI Osmo pocket 3 quick release charger. It is USBc and has a desk or accessories mount connection.
Plop into charger, charge, click the side releases. USBc charger so charges quickly.
The unit continues the very well crafted K&F design.

Whilst my Pocket did come with a add on base to allow for charging when mounted on a tripod, it is something of a clunky affair, a very lightweight plastic cube which, whilst matching the gimbal and being useful as an extension handle, isn't particularly stable if stood.
This K&F base is a much more solid affair being of all metal construction plus in addition to the quarter 20 mount on the bottom there are also a pair of fold out fingers allowing it to mount on pretty much any go-pro compatible mount.
This will be a much used item in my kit bag.

Much more compact and robust than the genuine Osmo Pocket 3 extension handle, this slick looking aluminium adaptor moves the USB-C port around to the front for easy charging while freestanding or on a tripod. It also adds the same 1/4 tripod socket, Arca-Swiss mounting functionality and a GoPro style claw adaptor. Two "fingers" fold down from below and are a little fiddle to insert into the adaptor until you've done it a few times as they want to lie flat as soon as you let them go.
It mounts the base of the Pocket 3 with a satisfying click and feels precision made. A silicone pad between the adaptor and Pocket three reduces the risk of marking it as do the rounded orange locking clips on either side. Much shorter than the genuine extension but geared more toward charging and mounting than ease of holding where the original handle has the edge. Slightly wider than the original handle thanks to the Arca-Swiss compatibility it still fits in my carry case which is a big deal for me. Another nice K&F Concept accessory has found a place in my photo-video gear.

It just so happens that I've needed a little stand exactly like this one after putting up a display unit for my drones and camera stuff. This is perfectly sized and Arca compatible, so it'll clamp right onto your Arca swiss tipod head with ease.
Featuring what seems to be an all metal construction, the quality of this little base is absolutely sublime. It clips right to the Osmo without any fuss and the USB-C port now accessible from the rear means you're not lying the camera down on a table to charge it - a big gripe I've always had as you were often resting it on the gimbal.
I wasn't expecting the additional GoPro clamp bits, it seems K&F might want you to consider using some of their other accessories like the shoulder or wrist straps. I already have a load of these so whilst I'm thankful for yet more GoPro compatible mounts for my Osmo case, I didn't need these ones.

This attachment is a game-changer for my pocket 3. It significantly improves the stability of using the camera on a table. I was already impressed with the camera, but this definitely takes it to the next level.
