So I received a pair of DJI FPV goggles from my wife for my birthday so I powered up my brand new set and did an update through the DJI Assistant 2. I then noticed a single black vertical line - of what appears to be dead pixels - in the right eye display running down the middle from top to bottom (pic attached).

Has this happened to anyone before? Is it normal to gamble like this with DJI products? You buy something brand new and have to send it to China for repair or probably replacement with a used set?

I had the same and returned it  - bought new ones

Who did you return it to and who refunded you? Was it DJI or the store?

I bought mine on email brand new from a reseller - in germany you can return it withing 14 days so I did. At the same time I bought new ones.

Also I did contact DJI and they told me NO REPAIR as I has just one Dead pixel.

When powering on the goggles only? This is exactly what I did. These goggles are absolutely brand new and not even bound to an air unit yet. I plugged them in, did a firmware update and the line appeared.

My wife spent a ridiculous amount of money on these goggles and I haven't even had a chance to fly anything with them. The dealer says I have to deal with DJI Support and I have already raised a case (CAS-5460253-W8K2J8)

Bought these BRAND NEW in Dubai for $$$, now I have to pay $ to send them back to Hong Kong. What a joke.

Items sent to Hong Kong for repair. It cost me $180 in shipping fees. Completely unacceptable for a supposedly brand DJI product

I am deeply sorry for the delay, could you please provide the name of the dealer to me? Besides, may I know if you have shipped the unit back? If so, please provide the tracking number to me, I will keep an eye on it.

The goggles were sent back already and were received on 16th November. Your support tracking site has never been updated

The supplier was gadgetby.com in Dubai - similar complaints on UAE FPV groups about the same supplier

Thank you for providing the info, I had asked the proper team to help and try to escalate the process.
Regarding the dealer's issue, I will also report to the corresponding team for their attention.
Sorry again for the difficulties.

My dji v2 goggles literally got 2 spots of dead pixels as I was powering it up. First it was fine. Then I put on my head and boom 2 spots slowly appear. This is my first and last dji product since they won't stand behind it for more then 15 days. For the 650$ it costs.

Also have issues with brand new goggles being sent with dead Pixels returned 2 sets waiting for the third... unmanned tech uk are having problems as they offered to check the new set and are finding there stock is all suffering the same right hand screen with dead pixel... I DO NOT ACCEPT ANY not on a brand new product !!!!! the 3 pixel minimum fault that DJI require is TOTALLY UNACCEPABLE as the screen is so small they stand out so much and distract the user severely.. when using a drone this could result in DEATH.. WILL DJI take the MANSLAUGHTER charge for you??? not likely... SO NO I DO NOT ACCEPT ANYTHING LESS THAN 100% working order for a brand new product especially one that can compromise safety

Hey, i have same problem. Serveral goggles with dead pixels on one screen and the other screen is perfect. Its definitely the goggle screen because i testet it with three cams and every time one screen is fine and one had dead pixels.
