Your subtle humor is excellent. I loved the enie menie miney moe at the end.

I thank you a lot for this video. It was a huge help getting a good overview and comparison of those 2 goggles. This video was really a huge help

Thanks for this video Mark! Just bought the ev100!!

Good to know, Thanks! Decided to go with the 800d

Sold me on both. I'm going for the EV 800 thanks so much!!!

You got me at practical, and this second viewer long run story its a +++ Thanks!

I'll be getting the ev800d for my first goggles thanks for the info I'm now a subscriber

Personnaly, I already have the EV800D, and no regret ! Very good review, video, +1 sub :D

Thanks Mark for another great video.

Been trying to make a decision on my first purchase for FPV goggles/box! This helps greatly!! Thanks, man!!

awesome vid! 👍👍 i have a friend who really needs to see this review because he's still deciding on which to buy

Great review, man. And I've been searching about the EV800d and VRD2 Pro and looks like people have more difficult to see with the VRD2 Pro than with the EV800d although the adjustable lens! Specially for nearsighted people. So, I'm convinced! Thanks a lot! :D

Great comparison video! I 'just' bought the EV800D on banggood. Ordered on November 25, shipped December 8, had been in limbo since. Tracking isn't working, so I hope they'll arrive at some point :S Glad to see that all the points that I care about went towards the EV800D, always nice to learn that you made the right choice :P

Great Video... Thanks for the clarification and intersting point... This really helps 👍

My VR D2 Pros work incredible! The diversity and range is amazing, although I heard many ppl like you had problems. The form factor is great. Can't wait to see the new Eachine EV200D

Thanks for the review/comparison video. I purchased the EV800Ds recently and this gave me confidence I made the right choice, still waiting for them to arrive. Things are moving so fast in the hobby, within the last year there are so many more options for BNF quads and googles! I think the next gen of the Eachine compact googles will really stand out.

Excellent review! I was still a little skeptical about which goggle to purchase (either the EV100's or EV800D's), but your video was extremely sincere and pragmatic; now I know for certain that the EV800D is my go-to goggle until I can upgrade to a better set.

Great review. I have both the EV100 and the EV800 googles, I fly with the EV100 because they're more comfortable, more portable and I need reading glasses to see well in the EV800 googles but I've yet to find any that fit. If I had to do it again...I'd probably get both. The EV800's have a fantastic screen and are much better for trouble shooting since you can tripod mount them and set them on the desk while you work as well as allow spectators to watch you fly.

Glad I got the 800D. IF front batt was a prob, I'd just remove it and power externally with batt velcroed behind my head or on belt, in pocket. 800D wins bigger on my shoe sheet. Great helpful review. Thanks, good job!

I have the EV800 and the VRD2. The EV800 just feels good and comfortable on the eyes, and the VRD2 needs some mods but works. Asides from just to look cool, I don't see myself changing to a compact goggles soon.

Very good review. Thanks a lot.

I agree on the diversity. I'm an electrical engineer and had my Amateur license since 1976. People who hate antenna diversity don't understand the receiver front ends are identical, and the advantage is in using 2 different style antennas. How the goggles select them isn't important at all as long at they select the strongest and don't do anything weird like hunting. We have a lot of "instruction manual experts" in this hobby. Good through review!

I was just about to make a post about this, it's good to hear from someone with more industry experience. It's the receiver sensitivity that makes the difference, receiver diversity isn't going to make a bad receiver good. Especially at this price point it's easy to imagine a manufacturer cutting corners on the receiver sensitivity in order to have that marketing checkbox "[ X ] True Receiver Diversity!!!"

@ricktucker7560

Great posts. There was a an engineer with Fatshark talking about the antenna diversity of the Transformers and he was pretty convincing that antenna diversity can be every bit as good as true diversity if properly implemented. IMO, if the receivers are identical, receiver diversity will always be as good or better while antenna diversity can only be as good or worse. So true diversity is a worthy feature to desire but it is only one part of a much more complicated system.

I trust what you guys are saying by then how come the video shows that the true d did better?

I had the EV800S and was constantly pulling the screen away from my face as the image was several inches to close. Great picture quality but unless you have a way to pull them way further away from your eyes they're not gonna be off much use. Went for the skyzones with IPD adjustments. Must have on goggles made for smaller faces and nose sizes it seems.

i absolutely love my ev800d goggles. they are comfy and the ability to make it a ground station for anyone to watch is really cool. so its a good back up goggle to have. i am saving up for some skyzone sky02 now that they are going on sale.

I had to add reading glasses to my 800Ds but my Ev100 work without mods! Idk about you guys but I get at least twice as much DVR with fan flight time out of my EV100s as I do the 800D... but I do agree both are good goggles... much better than the quanum v2 goggles imo... another great review!

Hi Mark , i fly using my Eachine EV800 , no diversity but i did add a Eachine Pro DVR and i also have a pair of Eachine VRD2 Pro that i keep as passenger goggles. If i had to buy a new pair it would probably be the Eachine EV800D over the EV100. I am also cheap and always seems to look for the best deals but best deals don't always mean best product of course. Great comparison , thanks for sharing.

Best review channel hands down

Excelent review.. Very usefull for me..

Hey man you got a new sub One thing btw gow can I carry EV800D in the field (in a backpack)?

Love my EV800D. I wear glasses and had to break the arms off a pair and hot glue them inside. Works perfectly for me. Much better than my Tactic goggles.

I'm upgrading from a cheap set of Spectrum box goggles to the EV800D, waiting for arrival, as for the reading glasses, i remove the ear supports, and insert the bare glasses in the Spectrums, and will do the same for the 800's

Mark, excellent vid. Great info. I have the ev100 and vrd2 . The other day I was flying my et100 and my ev100 batt was dead so I just picked up my vrd2 goggles and used them. It was the first time I've used them in a while. I was shocked how much better I flew inside with the vrd2. They just gave me so much more spacial awareness. For some reason I was able to control my altitude so much better. Now I still love ev100 because they do focus perfect for my eyes where as the vrd2 not as good. But in my opinion , the 5 inch box goggles are way better for nubes because of the FOV you get. I also have the vr006 I bought for my kids and they love them and I often let others use them for ride-alongs. I believe I might just stick with my vrd2's for indoors and ev100's for outdoors. Hope this helps.

DroneRacer101 ...interesting story. Short answer..the original vrd2. The long version ...the screen went out so I ordered a replacement 5 in backup monitor for a car that was an exact fit except the 2 inputs worked slightly different. I have a toggle switch to go between real time and DVR mode. But then the receiver board took a crap and I wired in an RS832 RX but I still retained the original DVR ( that is the same DVR as the eachine dvrpro , just without the case) the receiver and DVR are now mounted on outside of goggle case and I added a cooling fan for an old PC processor that I can plug into balance lead of lipo when needed. The whole thing runs off a 3 cell lipo with a regulator for DVR. So end the end , they started off as vrd2's but turned into VR-franken-goggle. It's ugly as sin but actually works fantastic. Also , I moved the fresnel lens as close to face as I could with some cutting and hot glue to best suit my vision. The factory adj's on the side were not quite enuf. If we're home at the moment, Id send a pic. They look like a science experiment.

Thanks for this review. My most concern is the AV input compatibility with external receiver. I have tried quite a few brands, and they often are not compatible between brands. Rcgroup has a thread about this problem. I need to hide inside my card and let the receiver on the car roof to do the deeds. :)

Sweet! Thank you very much.

I started with the VR007 and I still use them, the range is as good as the EV100’s, possibly even better!!

I have both I was drawn to the EV100 because the EV800D's are so bulky and they fall on my eyes why I try to rest them on the top of my head while changing batteries or looking for my drone. But now that I have them both it's honestly really hard to choose which one I like more. The EV100's are nice and compact but they seem to have technical issues periodically and I don't feel like I can fully trust them. As far as range and reception while using the same antennas I can't even hardly tell the difference both seem to perform fine.

you got a new sub!

Thanks I just want to know which have the best range and quality of video

i recommend keeping an extra 3s battery on hand if you intend to fly for an hour or more. it comes with a balance connector to charge and it will bypass the battery circuit while its charging so you arent draining both batteries at once.

I like my bgning ones there great and only cost 40pound I use a patch and Omni made by makerfire best cheap ones I ever used in fact

Hey Friends! i have a question can those be plugged with micro hdmi to computer (macbook to be specific) and play SIMs? Thanks! :)

Awesome Review!! I like the look of the Ev100, but the Bigger Screen Makes the Ev800 a Winner i my Book! Even though,I Really Don't like Box Goggles! You helped me Make up my Mind on the 800's!! I want Both pair,but with help from this Video.....Ev800 will make it here First!!

i have the EV800D already but, want a slimmer option would you suggest picking up the Ev100 I mainly fly micro drones mainly 75mm and the tiny whoops.

If i get this for the stock tiny hawk freestyle do i need to change the antennas on the evd800 to the straight ones?

How do we fix the blacking out of the screen in the ev100 goggles ?

Is there a link to a specific battery that can be plugged for external charging without modding/soldering? Does any 3s work? (sorry, noob question)

witch wone has the best quality and reception?

EV800D’s all the way baby 👍 the screen size is awesome there slightly heavy but the image quality makes up for it 🤪

I had the ev800 last week the sd card slid in wrong and the battery heated up and the power would not come on and i ran them outside and chopped them open gently but too late to save them .

I received EV800d yesterday. There isn't on menù the "rotation" function, and dvr stop recording when lost the signal. Why this?

Great video! Gave me a fresh perspective on the ev100s. I just got my brother into the hobby and steered him to the 800d's and he's incredibly happy with them. The ev100 screen fov and true diversity and better dvr in the 800s make them the overall winner in my humble bumble opinion.

That is great why it is great to have options now. Before the EV100 there really was no ski goggle below $300. Personally, flying at home I pick the EV800D still. But in public I might go for the EV100 :-D

How about the range with the same vtx and antena Sir?

Loved the comparison of the 2. I plan on buying the EV800. Will they work with the Bugs B2W I plan on getting? Instead of using either my iPhone 6 or my ASUS Tablet. My current drone I've been using is the Syma X5HW. How is GPS affected around trees? Most of my street is full of trees. The area I want to send the Bugs to has trees out around 200 - 300 yards away.

A m p-H i b i o u s FPV Your flying distance is not determined by your DX6i TX but with the RX (receiver) which you installed on the quad (is it full range or park flyer rx).

I saw UAVfutures upgraded the antennae on the EV100 and the video seemed good but watched joshuua bardwells review with the default antennae's...and it was terrible...I really like how the EV100s look but idk the case....rn (Getting into FPV and this is a good budget goggles..)

You don't need linear antennas to receive from linear antennas. A Cloverleaf on the RX side is almost always better. The only case when a linear antenna on the RX is better is if you want only fly directly over your head.

Torn-just about to make my first purchase fatsharks are well out my price range so it will be one of these two..🤷🏼‍♂️

EV800D are good for neck muscle exercises ;-)

Thanx! :)

A shame the ev100 didn’t work for me. I sure do love the EV goggles series though. Im the same with you I’m maybe one of the biggest cheapskates in the hobby. I always look for the cheap stuff.

Just found the video. You mention that you think most people will move up to better, or at least more expensive goggles, but maybe not nearly all or as many as one might expect. I like my EV800D goggles, have had them for 6 years now (this is 2024) and have no intention of changing. For one thing, I simply can not use any type of 2-screen, binocular type, device even real binoculars as the images never line up for me. In my case, it is either box goggles or a ground station monitor. Yes, I also wear eyeglasses. Thing is, how many pilots are in my situation. The EV800Ds are actually used by long range pilots and have been used for flights as far out as 8 miles. Coolness doesn't matter since I only fly in rural areas and the only person who ever sees me is my spotter. I couldn't care less. The EV800D goggles are, hands down, my pick, the ones I use, and the ones that I recommend. Furthermore, I don't think there is sufficient value in high end analog goggles to make them worth the money. Of course, if you need box goggles, high end is nothing.

Good rewived i have the 800D verry good goggles.

Overall, I'm happy with them. Cons for me are they are heavy, and they smelled terrible haha. After a few months the smell is finally wearing off.
