Goggles N3: DJI releases new FPV headset with 1,350 nit display for just $229
DJI has now officially introduced its first-person view (FPV) headset, which it claims it has designed for the Neo and Avata 2 (curr. $999 on Amazon). Arriving after a slew of recent leaks, the Goggles N3 is considerably cheaper than the existing Goggles 3, which retails for $499 in the US.
By contrast, the Goggles N3 retails for €269 in the Eurozone and $229 in the US. Unsurprisingly, DJI's latest FPV headset misses out on some of the hardware present in the Goggles 3. For instance, the Goggles N3 utilise 3.5-inch and 60 Hz LCD panels rather than the 100 Hz Micro-OLED equivalents inside the Goggles 3. Still, the former outputs natively at 1,920 x 1,080 pixels with up to 1,350 nits peak brightness and a 54° field of view (FoV).
Additionally, DJI has integrated its OcuSync 4 (O4) video transmission technology, which delivers a maximum video transmission bitrate of 60 Mbps. Moreover, DJI O4 works with a 2T4R antenna design to provide 1080p/60 FPS footage from up to 13 km away at 31 ms latency. Moreover, the Goggles N3 supports SyncSmooth technology to deliver smooth footage while maintaining up to 2.7 hours of battery life between charges.
For reference, the Goggles N3 weighs 536 g with a battery and headband included and measures 193 × 163 × 103 mm, excluding its antennas. Currently, DJI anticipates selling the Goggles N3 later this month in multiple markets, although its Goggles N3 product listing is now live. Incidentally, the Goggles N3 will be orderable as Motion Fly More Combo for €529 (~$565) in the Eurozone too, with an RC Motion 3 controller, three batteries, and a Two-Way Charging Hub. DJI has not confirmed US pricing yet, though.
