The DJI Goggles were first released in 2017 as a way to enhance the experience of flying DJI drones. They were designed to give pilots a first-person view of their drone’s camera feed, allowing them to fly with greater precision and control. DJI also released the DJI Goggles RE (Racing Edition) in 2017 and were designed for drone racing enthusiasts. They had a number of features specifically tailored to the needs of drone racers, including support for the 5.8 GHz frequency band, which is commonly used in racing drones. The Goggles RE also had a low latency of just 50 ms, making them ideal for racing at high speeds. In addition, they had a built-in receiver that can connect to other racing drones. These goggles are now out of production having been superseded by the DJI FPV Goggles V2, which were released in 2021, and most recently the DJI Goggles 2, which were released in 2022.
These goggles were specifically designed to work with DJI’s FPV drones, the DJI FPV and DJI Avata. DJI FPV Goggles V2 are compatible with both of them, while the DJI Goggles 2 only work with DJI Avata. Compared to the DJI FPV Goggles V2, the DJI Goggles 2 are lighter, support head tracking, have better video transmission quality with a lower latency, and are suitable for glasses wearers.

The only drawback to the DJI Goggles 2 is they are significantly more expensive when compared with the DJI FPV Goggles V2. While this might not be an issue for some users, it will be a purchasing factor for others. So, which of these goggles you choose will be dependent on your budget, the drone you have and your use case.
