This topic may be more polarizing than The Last Jedi. It’s a question I get several times per week. Which googles are better? The EV100 or the EV800D? I have my opinion, but instead of typing the reasons over and over I figured it was easier to make a video. The Eachine EV100 and EV800D goggles are both great options for getting started. They both have what I consider the essentials, diversity and DVR. But each of them do certain things better than the other. Let’s go through each of them. Then you can decide if the EV100 or EV800D goggles are right for you.

OMFG Finally, a comparative and comprehensive review of products by Eachine that makes sense and is unbiased. Alleluia!!!!

[@SimRacer101]

Thanks. I really appreciate that.

[@pirate1197]

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

[@scottmarshall6766]

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!

[@circleofowls]

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.

[@gautamkrishna7421]

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

[@Jasonoid]

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.

[@travispratt6327]

Spellcheck wins again =p

[@ZEAL_FPV]

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. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! PS. you just earned yourself another watcher, keep it up!

[@travispratt6327]

Did you end up getting the ev800d and have you upgraded yet?

[@GiffysChannel]

Dude, I love the look of the EV800D. It totally reminds me of the VR headsets they had in the 90's

[@RCinginSC]

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.

[@SimRacer101]

That is some great info. Thanks! Do you have the original VR-D2 or he Pro?

[@RCinginSC]

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.

[@MrLootshoot]

Agreed👍👍 I'm in the same camp as you

[@SimRacer101]

#ItsComplicated :-) every set of VR-D2 goggles I have seen have the lens pulled all the way back. That is one of the reasons I dismiss that feature. Everyone sets them where the EV800D have them set.

[@tiberiocellini3641]

DroneRacer101 Hey Mark! Would you recommend Eachine ev800d, ev200d, goggles 2, or vrd2 pro? Thank you PS: Yeah, the ev200d exist, they just came out but are wierd because they have Quad diversity.

[@skylers1144]

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.

[@sillydronevalley539]

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

Great review I also Have the ev 100 goggles and they work perfectly well for me I love the focal length adjustment on them i can see crystal clear without my glasses or diopters I agree the screen could be larger but at that price they work perfectly well

[@NIGHTBLAZER11]

excuse me, how many diopter have your glasses?

[@SimRacer101]

I am a -3 in both eyes and the ev100 adjusts perfectly for them.

[@NIGHTBLAZER11]

DroneRacer101 I am - 7 and - 6 on my eyes both are shortsighted and one of them is Astigmatic. So help me to find the way because I don't understand why on the ev800 I can see without prescription glasses.

[@apolkxi]

EV800D.!! thanks. Now i am able to make my decision if i need to replace my goggle.

[@AmpHibious]

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.

[@jeremymarano4866]

Without your videos and review I'd be lost ,thanks

[@SimRacer101]

You are very welcome. Thank you for watching!

[@AmpHibious]

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.

[@bondebos3478]

[@floriank6507]

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

[@the_real_foamidable]

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.

[@deadmoo83]

AFAIK the EV800D also has real receiver diversity. The knockoff ones from brands like Redpawz and LS don't, but the Eachine EV800D does. The EV100 only has antenna diversity.

[@SimRacer101]

That is a great point on the “other” ev800d.

[@AmpHibious]

it does? i was not aware of that, awesome! also noticed that it can receive video without any antennas at all but only a short distance, I have not had the best luck with their supplied stingpad patch antenna. but just using my tbs unify antennas on a high mw setting gave me crystal clear signal from over 500 meters. i suspect it could go much farther but i dont have that much confidence in my DX6i :p

[@zviki68]

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).

[@Pjoter2009]

DroneAbis Sativa gghhhh

[@circleofowls]

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.

[@HaveFaithInGod]

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!

[@pauleverettguitar1568]

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.

[@MCsCreations]

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

[@trickertinman]

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

[@JoranGroothengel]

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

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.

[@shatterpointgames]

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.

[@washingtonstatepicker3460]

Thank you for your honest review

[@buddyadkins2432]

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.

[@ljhobbylife]

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

[@Andre_M_3D]

I also considered the cheaper Shinehalo ls800d Chinese knock offs that look the same and have same features but they all are not as good as per reviews. Do you agree?

[@SimRacer101]

Totally agree. There are several others that use the same shell as the EV800D. But the internal components are not nearly as good.

[@leifericson2061]

Good rewived i have the 800D verry good goggles.

[@flyinphynixfpv5980]

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.

[@SimRacer101]

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

[@captainkook9371]

Very good review. Thanks a lot.

[@marekhalmo2813]

Did some research here. Don't forget that 100D's don't have drone audio and have only antenna diversity - not true diversity. That is a big deal breaker for me

[@unknownflyer90]

No talk about FOV differences?

[@pfabulous0920]

You forgot transportability

[@SimRacer101]

True. He EV100 would win that one. Not only because of the size but because rpsma is better for removing often.

[@orlov_fpv]

My EV100 reception suck balls, it literally blackouts after 30-50 meters, at the same time my friends EV800d has a perfect picture from my VTX. Tried all sorts of antennas, but it does not make any difference. So no doubt go for EV800d it is as good as RapidFire on FS, but many times cheaper, and a bit bulky.

[@johncgibson4720]

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. :)

Ev800D! Don't throw shipping padding it can be used to DIY cover nose gap if you have one. Old eachine goggles didn't have padding at all so they made big gap for nose. But now with padding they forgot to return smaller hole anyway best fpv box goggles you'll ever get!

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.

[@ArtMechanicsLosAngeles]

I was actually deciding between these two and wish this video was out when I was buying. It is a great comparison. I ended up going with the 800d. Mainly because it can work as a cheap ground station and didn't seem like money wasted when I upgraded to something else. There are threads on the bottom for tripod mounting. 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.

[@bradkrawchuk9730]

I was just looking at the specs (and pricing) for the EV200...I’m not sure why they wouldn’t have just addressed the screen size issue and kept the price low (-ish). There’s a demand in the marketplace for affordable Fatshark-style goggles and this seems like a missed opportunity (new goggles will be my big 2018 purchase, so I’m hoping competition drops prices a little...but not holding my breath).

[@SimRacer101]

The EV200 are really just a whole different design. I think we will get an EV110 or such in 2018 too.

Some of my friends tell me that banggood product are not a good quality.would you please help me out with this.do I buy it from banggood or not . Or buy a used goggles from eBay

[@atlin4140]

[@ThucNguyen-em2us]

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

[@johncarold]

Let me explain you can't go without buying both. EV-100's are GOGGLE'S w/o recording, EV-800 are box goggle's with recording

[@adriananakpeterchee2623]

but now ev100 have external DVR, dont but the black ordinary one, buy PRO DVR by eachine, it can record HD dude!!

[@juliussalovaara9787]

I have the ev800d!

[@tedwhite1715]

Hi, great post. I have a couple of questions if you would be so kind.1. Are the diopters on the EV100 individually adjustable?2. Is the battery on the EV800 removable? Replaceable?Thanks

[@circleofowls]

Yes, the lens' on the EV100's are individually adjustable for focus. No, the battery on the EV800 isn't what you'd call removable. It's not terribly difficult to disassemble the case and remove it however.

[@SimRacer101]

As owl said. I would call the battery replaceable, but not field removable.

[@hellorc4354]

but why couldn't you add a plug and move the battery to the outside , this is something i am going to do with my own pair.

[@circleofowls]

Ted Espin You could certainly mod it like that with little trouble.

[@RCFlyer85]

Ted Espin Yeah a seen a couple people do just that....

[@wdavie27]

Droneracer101 hiya mate do you think it's possible to modify the v100 with a video out to connect to a hdmi for using on a simulator by any chance

[@SimRacer101]

As a matter of fact I do think it’s possible 😉 How to hookup the Eachine EV100 Goggles to a simulator. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4Wnq2x-gJ5sj6c

[@wdavie27]

+DroneRacer101 thanks very much I'll check it out iv got the orange EACHINE dvr recorder aswel I was going to hardware it in plus iv think iv got a good idea to get better fov I found cheap reading glasses on eBay £1 a pair and they go from +1 to +2 to +3 +4 +5 & +6 iv got the +2 and +4 and I was going to cut them down to the size of the fatshark hd3 optic lens :-) and I'm hoping that will make a big difference lol but yes it would be great to connect with the simulator aswel and if your interested in looking at the cheap reading glasses I got let me know and I'll share the link from ebay.co.uk my friend and thanks for your help and advice happydays

[@travispratt6327]

Why does everyone always say you’ll end up buying a way more expensive version? What’s so much better about them and should I just go more expensive to begin with? At first I was planning on spending $50-$80 on a budget set, then after research and everyone saying that I’m eyeing $100-$150 pairs, but that’s as much as my f27 evo costs so to spend that on goggles seems excessive for just recreational use.

[@travispratt6327]

I went with the ev800d, seems like it checks most of the things I want and it’s priced right at just under $100, the only thing I wish it had was an anti fog fan as I tend to be a sweaty mess but we’ll see, maybe I’ll add some vents or even a small fan myself powered from the same battery.

[@madladdan]

I wouldn't suggest the ev100s to new flyers. The tiny screen and small fov will put them off. Get the ev800ds they've very immersive. Yes they're bulky but you soon forget about that when you put them on and start flying. Also the range capabilities of the ev800ds are mind boggling for the price.
