DJI Goggles 2 - What Nobody Tells You! - Day 14

DJI Goggles 2 review and why I'm returning my DJI Goggles 2 with the whole DJI Avata kit. The new goggles 2 are worse than the old DJI FPV Goggles V2!

DJI Goggles 2 has flawed design and very bad optics. Basically, you can't even get the whole screen in focus. Screen edges are very distorted and causes big eye strain. You can't even see the whole screen. Goggles 2 is just bad design.

Yes, the new goggles 2 are smaller, lighter and does not take much space in the backpack.. DJI has fixed the strap, antennas and added correction lens to the model. OLED screens are a bit more crisp and vivid.. but all this is for nothing if you can't even see those screen properly because of crappy optics.

If you looking to get DJI avata. I would recommend going ONLY FOR the cheaper Goggles V2. And you can buy the strap and smaller antennas separately, as clip on correction lenses if needed. I'm keeping my DJI Goggles V2.

Good video. I feel like DJI has paid off several notable FPV YouTubers to rave about the Avata etc and it's nice to see some people being honest about the drawbacks.

[FilipRadelic]

A few more reasons FPV Goggles V2 are better for "us":

- can wear most glasses with them
- being able to record 4k60 on Avata/O3AU while in low latency mode (Goggles 2 can only do it in hq mode)
- 2.7k120 recording (vs 100fps on Goggles 2)
- bigger fov
- lower latency (by 2-3ms due to higher refresh rate)
- higher output power at 5.8GHz (which is all you care about for fpv since Avata and O3AU only do video on 5.8) (1.4W on V2 vs 1W on 2)
- 3 fpv systems in one goggle (analog, dji fpv system, O3+)
- being able to plug in almost any xt60 battery
- being able to upgrade all 4 antennas
- even the dji battery pack lasts much longer than on new ones
- video out
- working defogging fan (lots of reports with fogging issues on new ones already)
- better face fit with sponge foams (which will be hard to do on Goggles 2 due to optics)
- no screen burn-in or smearing of OLEDs
- intuitive physical control over menus (the amount of youtubers who still don’t know how to go back on Goggles 2’s touchpad is hilarious)
- rootable

I would have to 100% agree. This is definitely an issue. How are others on you tube not talking about this in their reviews?

I love the Avata. It’s absolutely an amazing drone, handles incredibly well, fast, agile, great range, but I don’t love the googles.

I’ve adjusted the diopters and width of the lenses endlessly, but the right side is not clear at all. Very similar to what several others have described on here. The right side of the screen: important messages, range and signal data, etc are barely legible. I’m able to get to a better point, if I play around and manually adjust the position of the googles on my face with my hand, but as soon as I let go, back to blurry.

This absolutely has to be addressed by DJI.

[markos]

I am having similar blurry edges problem. Have anyone tried adding extra optics in front to give a bit wider angle?

[quattroesp]

How should i adjust the diopter? It feels so difficult and uncomfortable!!! I get headaches

[JohnCuppi]

Yeah, I had a bad experience with mine too. Nose pain and vignetting/blur around the edges. Not confident there is an easy solution for someone experiencing both issues. It's more complicated than just slapping an aftermarket thicker foam on the goggle.

[jmillerfpv]

I have the goggles 2 and they are micro oleds so of course they are different. Do you wear glasses/contacts? I have 20/20 vision and can see for myself that the goggles 2 is the better optic for me. They have fixed most of the problems you have spoke about atm.

[Xdeff]

I have the same problems with ghosting on v2 googles. I can only adjust to have the center of the screen without the ghosting, or edges, but with ghosting in the center. I feel like I need to move lenses more than googles allow. So basically I can normally adjust for one eye only.

[fpvtrendz]

I understand your concerns and see that others have similar issues, however, for me, I love the new goggles 2. Yes, it's a bit blurred on the text but not too bad and I have not had fogging issues yet. So for me, I love them and would buy them again.

[shizzdit]

This well represents what I see in these goggles. I gave myself a terrible headache last night trying once again to get these things usable. I haven't been able to maiden this VERY expensive bird yet and am very disappointed. Do I really need to see about returning these goggles and TRYING V2's? I am 45 and starting to become nearsighted. I have to push my phone away to focus on it. Why then on the DJI goggles 2 do I dial -1.75 farsighted to bring things into focus?

[UntungSim]

😀 have been waiting for this review. I keep my v2 as well. thanks...

[freekentrop]

Does the old dji goggles v1 support the avata

[boofez]

Bought a set of prescription lenses for my V2 and am loving the new goggles. Only issue i'm having is very slight light leakage at the bridge of my nose, small piece of foam fixed that problem.

[robloxprincess]

I really like the fit of these new goggles especially since it's lighter too! Glad that it works well for me

[chrisprelot]

I Totaly agree with your review, I just got my Avata with the new google 2, I was so excited at first, but I'm so disappointed me too.
The picture is so blurred on the edge and the vignette it's horrible... I cant read the OSD on both side ...I spend hours to fund the sweetspot but I cant get a clear image like it's on my V2...I think it's take away the immersion ..I'm selling this google

[fearportal]

Thanks for the honest review. I feel exactly the same after trying them out.

Aftermarket foams could make these fit better, but they can't fix the focus/IPD issues. Actually it would probably make the focus issue worse. DJI really fucked up big time with these. Only way to fix this would be to completely redesign the goggles with new shape, optics etc.

They should do a recall and cancel the release.

[gerard]

Every issue you mention I am having on the Goggles2. I thought it was just me! Thank you for this. I guess I have a return decision to make.

[johnnydehart]

Can anybody help me. Ive got al the parameters on the googles but no video feed.

[tehio]

At the end seems like there is hello appearing on your tracking shots. Is it normal?
