    I have these glasses. I work outside and wear them to listen to music while I work and so I can still hear ambient sounds/customers/people on the street who may talk to me. Like you say...it's never gonna be as good or bass heavy as something in your ears, but what I need them for they're great.

    tbh they're just a pair of speakers built into your glasses, which is kinda silly. The only benefit is having your audio playing off the bat near your year right away which is not worth 200 bucks since they're headphones out not for half that do much more.

    • @filoniz
      @filoniz 2 роки тому

      It's kinda neat not having your ear plug all the time, possibly losing the ear buds, taking them in and out every so often. I don't have problem with my vision but I can see myself wearing these all-day for calls, music, audible, voice assistant. Voice assistant by the way heard you better while these are on rather than through your phone mic. Other people can't listen to what you are listening to but it's open ear. That's the whole point. I have echo frame 2nd edition and just purchased Razer Anzu because it's on sale.

    Battery life may be good on these glasses but what if the battery on one side of the temples lasts less (wears off faster) than the other side? It is a very common issue with some bluetooth earbuds that need to be charged separately like these pair of glasses (eg: my left side airdots battery lasts longer than the right one)

    Well, pretty disappointed that they are not actually 'smart', they are just speakers. Which is totally fine, don't get me wrong, but when I hear "smart glasses" I instantly think of something like Google Glass and so I'm pretty disappointed when it's just this. I think we should maybe call them "audio glasses", as you said once in the video.

    For something I wear daily, I don’t even want to think about charging my "glasses”, for maybe a month or at the very least 2 to 3 weeks.
    Until that happens, this tech will be an extremely fun, niche, and expensive toy for rich people to play around with until they get bored.
