I have had these goggle for more than 3 years. They work as well as the day I received them. The only issue was the cable connector, which had a broken solder joint.
The goggles are far less bulky than the others but there is no facility to add an on-board receiver. The image is very good and the colours are realistic, even a little to honest. A good camera demonstrates just how good the image is.
The rubber eye covers can cause fogging in hot weather.
All over these are good serviceable and long lasting FPV tools. Well worth the money but remember, you will still need to buy a receiver.

First and foremost, all FPV goggles are grossly overpriced and these are no different. The hardware quality feels extremely cheap and even a low cost pair of ski goggles has a better quality head strap on it.

Next, the eye piece lenses are too small for the relatively large screen and cause significant distortion around the edges of the picture no matter how you look through them. It's almost bad enough to make voltage/RSSI/time/GPS readouts at the corners unreadable, but you can read them if you focus on them for a second.

Additionally, the wire that came with mine had a short in the futaba connector end. When I plugged in a battery, the whole thing just melted. HK was nice enough to send me out a replacement. Just a testament to the low quality of these and all FPV goggles.

All that being said, these are one of the best pairs in existence right now. Good screen quality and sharp, large picture compared to anything else in this price range.

I love these goggles! So light. Great picture and FOV. Do fog up just pull them away from your eyes then they clear up. Very good for first time FPV'ers. I recommend.

For my first FPV goggles they are great very light! well finished picture is good with my GoPro960.
I have a big head and they fit well no light get's in and the head strap works well.

These got me officially addicted to FPV. I was flying on 7" LCD diversity receiver. I now connect these to my 5.8 GHz diversity ground station's video out. Two drawbacks: 1) the image is smaller than expected. 2) On a warm day they fog up - so needs some kind of ventilation on the rubber.

Best view out there. Make sure to use a 520tv line camera or better to get the best quality picture. Very happy with these, slight blueing on the edges but you can tell when flying. See pics from iPhone...
