$849 Thermal Vs $8000 Thermal - Goyojo Thermal Scope Review & Test

True with Guns America here, and today we’re diving into something we don’t usually cover — the cheapest thermal rifle scope we could find. As part of our Decoding Darkness series on lights, lasers, thermals, and night vision, we wanted to step away from the $4,000–$8,000 gear and show what an entry-level option looks like. That’s where the Goyojo GRL 335, an $849 thermal, comes in. We’ll walk you through its specs, features, and build quality, then hand it off to Tanner, who spent real time hunting with it.

In this video, you’ll see what this budget-friendly scope can (and can’t) do, including a side-by-side comparison against an $8,000 thermal scope. From detection range to image clarity and durability, we put the GRL 335 to the test in the field. If you’ve ever wondered whether budget thermals are worth it, this video will give you the straight answer.
