There are so many positives to these goggles that it's hard to know where to start. I can only say that if you really want to feel like your in the cockpit of your Drone, especially a Mavic Pro, you need a pair of these goggles. The only downsides that I have found is that like all goggles you are pretty much blind to your surroundings when using them. It is very important that you have somebody next to you to make sure that your environment is safe and also to keep a visual line of sight on the drone. Do you have the ability to reach out to people to come and fly with you when you want to? That is probably the make or break issue with all FPV goggles
(COPIED)
They are large, They are well balanced and feel really good on your head. The front protrudes a lot but it's actually fairly light. The headband is heavier because it contains the batteries and the combo makes for a perfect balance on your head.
The Goggles use two x five inch 1920x1080 screens inside. That gives an effective resolution of 3840x1080 or its like looking at a 216" HDTV screen at 10ft away. Yes your own mini theater that almost covers everywhere your eyes look at. This gives you a completely immersive experience. You feel like you are flying, so much so that you will find yourself moving with the aircraft and swaying like a bird and then on landing and removing the goggles you will feel a bit disorientated that your back on the ground. It's all very hard to put into words because frankly there is nothing for drones on the consumers market that I can use as a comparison.
I wont bore you with Specs because if you have reached this point you have no doubt read up on all the details of the touch pad on the side and the head tracking etc. So let me focus instead on the information that is not on DJI's website.
If your using the with a Mavic Pro you almost do not need to have a tablet or phone hooked up, although I highly recommend that you do keep one hooked up.. The goggles provide all the really necessary flight information but do lack a few things like the map. They have implemented the Radar system for knowing where the craft is in relationship to you but it is not complete but it is supposed to be by the next update probably around the end of June.
The built in head tracking system works perfectly, almost too perfectly because it moves just as quickly as your head moves which is great for just looking around while flying but is terrible for trying to record video unless you want it jumping around all over the place. For now I leave it on when I want to just fly for fun or to let a friend feel what it's like to be Superman, but for videography I leave it locked and use the controls on the remote to move the camera. The 110ms latency is really great. It gives you a feeling like there is almost no latency. If you have flown the drones with a Tablet or phone you were getting over 200ms of latency, so this is a big improvement.
The unit has a built in silent fan and I dont know if this is designed to help prevent any kind of fogging in the goggles but whatever the case is, the goggles do not fog up when your using them. There is a bit of heat build up if you go out with them on a hot day and there is also a small amount of light leakage around the nose section. This pretty much goes away once the screen is lit up. If you were glasses its not a problem as the goggles fit right over even the biggest of glasses. There is no built in Diopter with these goggles, so if you wear glasses you will need them.
"Watch TV"
When your not flying this thing is a blast for watching TV! You can hook up an HDMI cable and watch anything coming from your 1080P cable box or computer. It even worked great using my iphone and an HDMI adapter. You get that massive beautiful TV screen and the picture is super clear.
One let down is that you would think that 3D would look great on this since it has separate screens for each eye but for right now DJI does not support 3D decoding. All the hardware is there, so I hope its just waiting on software updates.
The goggles have output for headphones but they also have two built in speakers which are great for listening to movies. They are not tinny or cheap sounding, I was actually surprised at how good they sound.
One of the main features is that you can transfer your recorded video from the aircraft to the goggles and play them back. You can either do this wirelessly or you can pop out the SD card in the drone and push it into the SD card slot on the goggles. This works very well for letting friends watch video recorded by the drone. I wanted to see if I could get movies of my own onto the SD card and see if I could play that. So far I can get video but no sound. I don't know if its a feature that is not implemented yet or if they do not have plans on doing it because video from the drone does not have sound so maybe they think it is not a needed option.

Seemless FPVThe DJI Goggles are comfortable goggles designed for seamless FPV flying with DJI products.* They combine a pair of large ultra-high quality screens, long-range, low lag wireless connectivity, and direct control of photo and video capture. With Intelligent Flight Modes like ActiveTrack, TapFly, Terrain Follow, Cinematic Mode and Tripod mode, a totally new flying dimension is created. *DJI Goggles supports Mavic Pro, Phantom 4 series and Inspire series. Some functions will be adapted for different DJI Products |
Low Lag TransmissionDJI Goggles are able to offer both 720p/60fps and close range 1080p/30fps viewing with an extremely low latency of just 110ms.Through DJI’s OcuSync wireless transmission system, up to four devices can be connected to the Mavic Pro simultaneously. Antennas built into the headband ensure 360° of coverage, offering a reliable connection even if the aircraft is flying behind you. Share the fun of immersive flying with friends by giving them a bird’s eye view of the world as you pilot their experience. |
Intelligent FlightDJI Goggles are a perfect pair with DJI's new Intelligent Flight Mode: Fixed-Wing Mode. In this mode, the aircraft doesn’t turn left or right but instead flies forward with enough rotational movement for realistic flight simulation. Combined with Head Tracking Mode, you can use your head to control the Mavic Pro for a fully realized flight experience. An AR trajectory prediction feature in Fixed-Wing Mode makes using this mode in complex environments safer. Other Intelligent Flight Modes include Terrain Follow, ActiveTrack, TapFly, Cinematic Mode and Tripod Mode. |

High ResolutionTypical '2K' screens inside the goggles are split into two 1280x1440 sections, one for each eye. When viewing a 16:9 image, some sections are further cut off, leaving only a quarter of the available pixels. DJI Goggles have two 1920x1080 screens providing more than twice the amount of pixels of a typical 2K single screen. |
Optical DesignDJI Goggles use a beam splitter to display an image in front of each eye, as well as polarization to prevent any image overlap. This allows it to create genuine Full HD 1920x1080 resolution per eye. When used with the large aperture aspheric lens, an 85° field of view per eye is created for maximum immersion. |
Head TrackingYour head movements control both aircraft yaw and camera tilt in Head Tracking Flight mode as with remote controller sticks. All you need to do is turn left or right to yaw left or right, and straighten your head to stop turning. In Head Tracking Gimbal mode only the gimbal will move without affecting yaw. |

I find these work great with my Mavic Pro and my Parrot Bebop
Update: Goggles still working great, did find out today that by using the DJI Goggles HDMI in put I can fly my Parrot Bebop with Skycontroller1 as it has HDMI output, just make sure the goggles is the last device you turn on to bind up or it will not connect, yeah its nowhere the quality as the Mavic, but its nice I have a Film Drone that I can Fly FPV using these Goggles. Well only had a short time, but love them with my Mavic Pro, super easy to setup, menu was no problem. Was so easy for me the quick guide 2 page manual was all I needed to get started. Yeah the touch pad can be easy touched but I already figured out a way to grab the face side so I don't touch the pad. Sliding your fingers up and down back and forth, so easy to go through the menu pretty quick. I really like that I can still have my controller and phone to fly FPV and still have video on the goggles also. Binding was really easy doing it with a paper clip. Yeah there a bit big and heavy but not that much more than a large box FPV Goggle for racers. yeah for $200 more you could get the racer edition so you can fly other 5.8ghz racers, but I have light weight goggles for those flyers. Just wanted these for my Mavic. Most prescription glasses would work, but I had my eye doctor make me a small pair that works perfect with these goggles and my vision with my glasses and goggles is crystal clear. I never was asked by my DJI app to activate the goggles and they worked perfect out of the box. FYI to get heading tracking to work, use 2 fingers ans swipe down, it will open the correct menu for head tracking, head tracking is the bomb.
