Looks promising. If there are no negative or bad things about them, I will certainly buy these goggles. AndyRC sounded pretty enthusiastic about everything, no obvious fails or signs of poor manufacturing.
Hope this beta testing phase doesn't take a half year or so, don't want to be waiting too long now.

Yes finally, these could be the ones I actually buy too, a very positive review... Lets hope they iron out the odd issue here and there, like the 2 min minimum on the DVR, and possibly a higher bit-rate wouldn't hurt either, not to mention recording in 720p. Not a deal breaker for me it's how they work live that's important as far as I'm concerned.
I've not been flying this year as I've been saving some dollars and I want to fly FPV ASAFP... Plus the Topsky ones I was hoping would be good late last year were a massive letdown, the Aomway Commanders are expensive and I';ve still got my eyes on those. I'll be flying next year for sure and hopefully by then there will be a decent not too expensive google I can get my hands on.
Top stuff.

Another satisfied reviewer/customer.
The only bad thing till now is that foam at the nose, which I would probably cut away anyway, cause I don't like nose clamps. I even cut away the nose-foam on my brand new OculusVR headset, the nose foam squeezing my nose made me dizzy and gave me a headache. And after a while breathing trough my nose while getting only 75% or less intake, I was litterally gasping for breath.
Actually I don't even use the foam padding and faceplate on the Fatshark I have now. Took it off so the screens are closer to my eyes. It's only half a centimeter closer, but that's a lot at such close distance to the eyes, can still focus properly and gives a bit wider FOV. Kinda hoping the faceplate on the EV200 can be detached also, makes the goggles a lot more compact, but no problem if it can't.

Let's hope he got some shitty beta version and Eachine improved the eyepieces already. Will have to wait for more reviews to find out.

Ah,that`s the Kebab FPV video,i was looking for this only hours after he uploaded it as it was mentioned by Drone Mesh. Think he deleted it coz it`s just an early beta version of the goggle and not for review.

I do hope they fix this 1 little issue with the screen blockage, though it might not be as bad as in the review vids. Reviewers tend to be over the top picky, so maybe in reality it's not that much of a problem. They all mentioned it's noticeable when looking with 1 eye, but that it's not a big problem when using both. You can't even use the goggles for 1 eye, unless your blind in 1 eye that is.
Otherwise looks great so far.

From what i could tell looking at Stu`s video they seem to have fixed that zoomed in screen that Bardwell was moaning about,where he couldn`t see all the text on his OSD. As you say nobody is gonna fly with one eye closed anyway,so that is not really a big problem.

Solution from Eachine to fix the frontlens being to narrow:

User instructions for foreigners outside China:
#1: Put on goggles. #2: Squint eyes.
-End of instructions.

Finally got round to watching the other videos. I'm pretty much convinced of these now, but these are still development review copies.
They've done an excellent job for the money without a doubt and I hope they fix some issues, none of which are deals breakers for me though. The main one being the small lenses not allowing you to see all the screen with both eyes. Hopefully they'll address this and a few others, but, yeh, I want em...
Good job Eachine.

Think those reviewers are just super critical about those eyepieces, they must be spoiled with their top of the line Fatsharks.
I don't understand why they hold on to those eyepiece lcd box modules. Would be better to use the same system vr headsets use. That way the frontglass would be bigger and fixed, with only the lcd screens moving and adjustable for setting ipd.
Hope they hurry up, but the way things are going I expect these for christmas. Which is good, cause maybe can get some discount then.
