The Fujifilm X-E4 is thinner than the X-E3 by a centimeter. Unlike its predecessor, the grip of the new camera has been removed.[4] The camera consists of the same 26.1-megapixel, back-side illuminated but with a newer processor, the X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor which is also found in FujiFilm's flagship cameras.[5]

The camera has a 180° forward-tilting LCD touchscreen. The camera is able to record at 4K/30p and Full-HD/240 fps videos.

In September 2022, major Japanese retailers started listing the Fujifilm X-E4 as discontinued.[6]

The camera system was plagued by availability issues, perhaps due to Covid-19 supply chain issues. [7]
