Great review man, was really easy to watch and listen to! Also props to the cat just sitting still while filming it, mine would never tolerate that lol
Great video, I watched the whole thing and am really impressed by the quality. It was shocking for me to see that you were not already a large channel. You have me a complete idea of just what these glasses can do and whether I should get them or not (I think I will) as well as having great shots of cats. Only other thing I would have liked was possibly a link to Lensabl in the description. Thank you for this video.
thank you for your kind words! I really appreciate it and i'm glad you enjoyed the video!
I loved the review! Very informative. These are on sale through Amazon right now (5/27/2022) for $50.87. I love the part at the end where you pop off and start rambling about surpassing the physical boundaries of humanity or whatever! Hahahahahaha :)
Thank you! that's awesome they're on sale for that much definitely worth it at that point!
Got my small ones for 40$ everyone it’s amaze
I bought today for $60 with both set of lenses from Best Buy. Great review and start of tech channel! 👍
Oh wow that's a nice deal! And Thank you!
Fantastic review! Can't wait to see more from you.
Thanks cammador!
Use a microfiber cloth when you change lenses. Seen enough videos saying the button control panel does not work well.
Just got them for 25$. Let’s see how it goes. Great video!
Right off the rip, let me just say, job well done with this review! Not only is it informative, but it is well shot and produced! 👍
I just bought my wife a pair of these in the small-medium size and bought myself a pair in large round! They are coming this weekend, so I am looking forward to my own experiences with them and the help of your review! 🤞
Thank you so much! I hope you both enjoy them!
How do you like them?
Actually, I like them pretty well! The interchangeable lenses were the Plus for me, cuz I can slip my polarized lenses in when I'm out on the go and my blue blocking lenses when I'm at home working! This post indicates though, temper your expectations with the sound, because they will not sound like earbuds, rather a background that is playing in your head when your podcast and musics on! All in all, at this price, it is a thumbs up! 👍
@dale hemphill I'm excited to get a pair and right now they are on sale for 59.99 on best buy!
Actually, 59 bucks is a tremendous price on these, but really, this is about where they should have been priced initially! I would definitely get them, I've spent more on bad earbuds than that in the past! Good luck 🤞👍
There are selling for USD47 in Turkey right now. I'm thinking to buy these because I need a sunglass for this summer. It seems for that price range, it would be useful, right?
Got mine for a couple days. I like them. I hope the blue light is good for the lab. Screens for days lol.
Nice review !
I'm excited for mine to arrive. The dimensions for the lenses are the same as my prescription glasses so I'm hoping I can just lop them in.
Oh yeah that would be sick! I hope it works out, you'll love them especially if you're gonna be wearing them frequently
What is the keyboard you are using on the 8:06th minute ? Very cool keyboard and nice review. I am planning to get one since they are on sale for 59.99
Its my work keyboard all I know is its made for avid if that helps
💯 agree with almost everything you said. You were totally in my head. 😆
That's how it feels like to listen to audio through the Razer Anzu Smart Glasses
I'm getting these because my work doesn't allow earbuds anymore and I only listen to podcasts to get me through the day so hell...I'm getting these and I just might get two pairs to last me through my full shift. Management can't say shit when you have prescribed glasses but just happen to have speakers lol. Great video.
Thank you! Luckily they aren't as expensive now I believe, hopefully it works well for you! I couldn't imagine not being able to listen to music or something during work haha
they also come with a cleaning cloth that you can use to swap out the lenses instead of your grubby fingers.
That would make a lot more sense to do, I guess I'm just dumb haha
No, you do not have to send the frames in. Lensabl gave me the option to have the lenses sent to me to install them myself. All you have to do is mention the Razer Anzu frames plus the size and shape in the notes textarea when you setup your lenses order.
Did you try to place any lenses you already had on to the frames?
Was there a way to increase volume during a call since it's hard to hear folk in a normal environment
I got these for $50 on Amazon and they are so great
Love the cat awesome
I loved them until one day, 7 month in, the branch just broke. No shock, no fall, nothing. I opened the glasses branch to put them on and one of them stayed in my hand.
At first Razer refused to honor the guarantee because I had bought them from Amazon and not from an authorized dealer but in the end they were kind and let me send them back. (I'm actually doing the package right now).
So overall a positive experience.
I loved the sound and the look of those glasses (I wore them as my daily prescription glasses)
My branch broke within first two days. Id reordered, cause its neat overall for the price
lol same , my first ones and nothing to comparing ... those are the best 50$ i ever paid. im upgrading to Amazon echo frames and see if it has the same experience... 1 thing i dont like : clear lenses makes my eyes get tired .. im mot used to wear any. 1thing i love: music all day long mixed with phone calls and siri experience 🤷♀️
My man is casually showing off a deathcore band in the review is peak
I too can't wait for AR glasses to be more accessible.
You have my like because you listen to Slaughter to Prevail 🤘🏽
Woudl these be able to be worn over existing glasses? I have a pair of glasses but would like to use these as just sunglasses. Or would I need to get the prescription lenses?
I feel like it'd probably be best to just get your prescription lenses put in these but then you'd also have to get prescription sunglasses, I don't think they'd fit comfortably over your other glasses but I also know my mom has a few different clip on sunglasses for hers so you could try those if that helps!
Hmm arent they just a pair of glasses with built in audio? There is no AR in the lenses etc
I am having audio stutter when connected to my main pc. Works great on my work laptop but I cannot understand why it would cause stuttering on my main PC. I tried a USB adapter, no luck. Updated all drivers, nothing. I really wanted to use this for my PC instead of my over the head headphones for ease of use but I feel like I exhausted all options. Any ideas you could throw my way?
I feel like the main issue would be the Bluetooth card in your pc if anything, I personally don't have one in my pc and haven't tried connecting them to my razer laptop to see how they work, but that would be my guess if you have a custom built shouldn't be too hard to replace, if not u could always try out one that's not internal that could work. But I never actually even thought of connecting these to my pc so I wouldn't know anything other than the audio card or the bt card for hardware sorry if this doesn't help :( best of luck getting it figured out!
Limiting to a phone IMO is a bad move.
There are so many AR products that can connect as a screen to you mobile phone.
Having it as a private PC screen however, makes for far more uses. You have no room for that massive screen in your room, no problem, link up the glasses and game away on your PC, playing COD or any other online game with your team with that 120 inch screen you always wished for.
I know I’m late but did you have a connection issue with the glasses disconnecting with simple things like in your pocket. This is the issue I’m facing.
Not really, when u close the glasses they will turn off so they will automatically disconnect then once u open them they reconnect again, if you're talking about your phone being in your pocket then no I'm sorry :(
@@zathros9427 Okay thank you, because that's why I really wanted them but it keeps disconnecting or cutting out with my phone is just in my pocket I am not sure if there is a warranty system for this. it does seem like it is not a common issue which is good that a replacement might just fix it, again thank you for reaching back.
As someone who has to wear glasses all the time, would these be possible to wear without any issue? Like the audio, I heard they automatically turn on Bluetooth when opened can this be turned off by disabling bluetooth
I would say they would be very comfortable if you wear glasses a lot, I don't wear glasses normally and can wear these for a long time and only really had an issue while I was wearing masks with them. For the Bluetooth thing I'm not sure I know being on standby it can last a long time because I had used them as normal sunglasses for about a week about 4 to 6 hours a day without charging. But idk how to get them to not turn on when u open them but if they don't connect to your device they'll probably be on a searching mode until they find something
@@zathros9427 yeah that would make sense. I guess it's best for them to connect to my phone first incase they connect to other people's devices. I'm thinking of getting these next month due to the reasons we already know and your video helped me as you have had this product for a while so thanks
@@obnu ofcourse I'm glad I could help! I figured it'd be a really good idea for these because I wasn't sure if they would hold up as much or as long as they have but they've been doing great and so that's good to see! thanks for watching my video on them I really appreciate it!
watching these with the razor anzu smart glasses
awesome! hope you're enjoying them!
@@zathros9427 actually they just stopped working for whatever reason lol. gonna have them ship me a new replacement for free. have you ever had any problems with the battery not charging or the glasses not turning on?
Wearing nitrile gloves might help when replacing lenses.
Can confirm. Powder free!
So basically you want a Scouter? Makes sense. Tbh I was hoping that one day those Google Lenses were more like that.
Also congrats on 100 Subs
just got these for $75 to wear at work. No headphones music etc are allowed and after 2 years I need something like this..
Awesome! I hope you enjoy them and they work well there! It's super nice for that haha
Do you need a prescription and are they good for protecting the naked eye
No, you don't need prescription but you can get it and yes the blue light filtering lenses are good at blocking the light from computer screen or tvs, same with the sunglass lenses, they help block uv rays and stuff!
I just picked these up on black friday for $50 CAD
The lens can be change with the custom lens?
Yep! U can get them custom made for the glasses from the website on the razer link when u scroll down
i just got them for $70 so i hope i like them 🥰
that's a pretty good deal!
maybe the 3D printers community can come up with a dock you can put the glasses on for charging with the cable we got
That would be so sick would definitely make them a lot more convenient to use imo but that might make me sound lazy lol
Wheres the app i looked it up on the app store and i cant find it
It's called "razer audio" play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.razer.audiocompanion
@@zathros9427 thanks
Hey that multicolored keyboard what is that?
If you're talking about the work one I'm not too sure what it is I know it's meant for avid which is the editing software I use at work, I use premiere at home though not that it matters, but yeah its one meant for avid I believe and my home keyboard is the gmmk pro
@@zathros9427 ya the one @ 8:06. ive never seen a membrane keyboard with keycaps like that
@@casanova1012 it says logickeyboard on the front of it, if that helps at all also the space bar says designed for newscutter and has the avid logo on it so I'm pretty sure you can find it using that but I'm also sure there'd be better boards for like premiere or something as I'm not quite sure who tf still uses avid and Idk why I have to at work LOL
your mic slightly quiet this is more of a headset to headset problem some soundstage are heard better with lower or same volume
but thats a mid game problem for a micro channel
and audio balance i heard youtube lowers db by 5 or something but idk about that
the other optional thing is branding lets say people watch several youtubers and your thumbnail can be lost between all of them and probably ignore it and forget about it cause lets be honest we all channels we instantly recognize and go for it on sight
thumbnails can be easily changed in the future and even big creators chance them even in an hour
video production is way beyond what a small channel is capable so keep grinding and try to tickle the algorithm usually being at the right time at the right place can make a big difference
as for viewers interest its entirely random and hard to guess so i heard a creator recommends just having a video that a person might search it up and the more people search same product or topic the better but i dont focus on strategy part at all and probably do what you want cause chasing the algorithm might be bad idea and try and make it chase you instead
Oh interesting I tried to make sure my audio was hitting - 15db and it was fine I s2g I'm thinking of just getting a new mic and selling this series pro v2 cuz I'm having problems with synapse thank you for your comment though I'm also thinking of changing a few thumbnails around I've never been good at those, thanks for commenting about the quality I'm super proud of a few shits I get and I try to make sure they look good, saving up for a nice camera right now to be able to record with also use as a camera for freelance work for companies and stuff instead of using my phone for them haha I appreciate your words they really help!
you can either get a entry level budget non gaming mic nothing too fancy
the other thing you gonna eventually learn is audio post processing you know removing static background noise Equalize the tones a little bit normalize to smooth it out
it will be trial and error for sure and some effects might work better for one mic that might not work on other as good people usually recommended audacity but recent year controversy that it collects some data that didnt before on "OPEN SOURCE" software so lets be honest then we make no income low budget is our level
razer synapse is kinda limit the synapse 2 is entirely discontinued in favor of synapse 3 if you use razer gear that heavily depend on software
as for using third party software there can be issues that are unpredictable like audio stacking with EQ or surround that impact gameplay recorded audio footage it might be not noticeable with using gameplay audio as lower background sound then your own voice is in the frontground
as for camera yours is fine there very minor noise and most of the time just having a lot of balanced light and clean equipment should be more then enough for a beginner but im not photographer nor cinema producer
freelance as a starving nobody this is very unlikely income source the more attention you get the higher chance some clients gonna come to you but if you get sponsors beware of fake sponsors that gonna try and trick you into getting a malware usually micro channels is not their priority but thats more a concern for the deeper future
and comment bots you eventually gonna want to filter that out easy to spot they impersonate creator and spread whatsapp number to try and bypass default filtering the other thing they can do is oblivion NPC scripted nonsense talk
i might repeat myself about comment bots and fake sponsors cause they are that common problem
so yeah your priority is just making content with full creative freedom experiment has no limit nor consequence cause then a big creator branch out people might leave cause they subbed for content they no longer provide or it might be better to branch out and might be luckly enough to benefit more
so good luck
also theres no need to rush videos so making several tests before going all in might work better and it might be hard to even find feedback so you kinda want to take all feedback with a grain of salt and decide for yourself which is right or wrong
@@Nogardtist it's weird cuz my 2 razer mics are good quality but it's just the newer one requires a lot of post processing also synapse has been glitching out a lot the past few days and it makes those virtual audio things in synapse not work, I have done a few freelance projects out of college but idk if that's where I wanna go necessarily,the industry I'm in right now makes it easier for me to get a group of people or work in projects like that as we all share that interest I do have a bunch of fun ideas to branch out of just reviews but it'll take a bit longer to get some of those done I'm struggling atm with thumbnails because idk if I should include text or just have a nice image of the product
@@zathros9427 for thumbnails there this fancy thing called rule of thirds basically the text should be not too big not too small and colors that dont blend with the background something that can be noticed in split seconds
my plan for thumbnail gonna be just remaking the games cover art with different text that matches the style to be as close as possible to the original probably thats where self taught artist skill can be of some use and probably branding on the corner some
if its a product review people gonna click for the product more specifically and not really for the personality
so i bet the product gonna take most of the thumbnail by minimum half and text usually is placed somewhere in the corner as for background this gonna be tricky it depends mostly on contrast or something to not be distracting
other gaming channels they usually either take the best screenshot add text and number and leave branding for the last and some reviewers jus take game cover with thumbnail aspect ratio and just slap minimal branding at the bottom or corner
They are $25 right now on Woot
My husband bought 2 pairs of their 'smart glasses' and within 2 weeks, the right arm came off. Razer told me that this was due to abuse. The connection of the arm to the frame is plastic and poorly designed. I have put script lens in both pair and now Razer refuses to repair the arm assembly. I have full documentation and pictures of their 'wonderful' support. Buyer Beware!
that sucks they should have at least taken them in and repaired them, I would've expected a whole new pair, I have dropped them once and the arm came off but I was easily able to snap it back into place but was still a bit worried with the quality, thinking I wouldn't be able to fix them so easily if I dropped them again.
Having Bluetooth speakers doesn’t make them smart glasses. I have a pair and do like mine but my rayban Facebook stories are way more smart and even my 2012 google glass is way more considered smart. Having a mic and speakers really is no more than ear buds. Try nreal glasses. They are my newest glasses and the augmented reality in the glass is what smart glasses,,all smart glasses should have
What are the best smart glasses that you would recommend regardless of price?
That's what I kept thinking during the video, is that all these do? Bluetooth speakers built into plastic glasses?
Lmao I got these for $25 on Cyber Monday.
Just got them today for 13$
We’re?
They’re on sale for $50 now. 😅
Wow that's crazy, must not have done that well LOL
$25 now on woot!
I got these for 5$ on prime day with an extra discount lol
Wow that's insane omg, how have u found them? I'm assuming for $5 it doesn't matter too much if they're perfect quality lol
@@zathros9427 just ordered them today today is Amazon prime day and 50$ had 40 something gift card applied to it
@@battleaxe6108 ahhh okay either way pretty good!
Why are your glasses moaning?
where are they moaning?
40 bucks rn
wearing a mask while sitting alone. lol
it was at work and there was like 20 people around, go easy on me man 🤣
No, they don’t.
Glasses are pure trash! Ive bought better glasses from a dollar store
The dapper caution microbiologically stare because vietnam unpredictably guide below a frantic sack. voiceless, unsuitable behavior
I can save you almost 10 mins of your life... These glasses are junk.. and no where even close to being worth the 199.00 price tag... there are far better out there and even ones with cameras .. SAVE YOUR MONEY!!
I used mine to hack NASA, and now I know their secrets.
Do u kno where they're keeping h-
