Да, я задумываюсь о покупке таких очков ) Это просто безумно круто!
I purchased one years ago and sent back because i could not see the edges of the screen clearly and the fixed displaywas a bad experience but now I am considering byuing it again for one reason: being able to use my computer outdoors in the sun
How comfortable is it to look at the keyboard while working? They have OLED screens, what about burn-in with a static picture?
Thanks for the review Patrick. I too get nauseous wearing glasses like these but my issue is caused by an inner ear problem. It's a shame because these look like they might be fun to use.

@@PatrickRambles It has its limitations. It's why I won't buy high end ear buds, the money would be wasted on my old ears. In the grand scheme of things however it's a very minor complaint.
you did a great job with the screen recordings and translucent perspective overlays! I was wondering how you did it when others couldn't. Now i know and it's a a wonderful job! Did you try out the Viture? Seems like Xreal needs the Beam to do more functions and seemed bigger. Curious if you had try Viture (recently rated Editor's choice in XDA)? Your high quality recordings if you actually have a chance to review them would be great.
I need these for the Steam Deck and ROG Ally
I wish I had these on my recent plane ride. the OG switch screen is too small the big screen would've made gaming on the go more comfortable.
My pair is coming in later today. Thanks for your review. Excellent and very helpful for Mac users like me! Now want to see how it works with iOS for my iPhone and iPad mini 6 (USB C). Just wish someone would explain how these things work for those few of us who wear corrective lenses. I understand the prescription frame but can I use then with the glasses I have; at least for awhile? If I connect these glasses to my ipad mini, can I take a walk/exercise while wearing? Is there some substitute for the trackpad or mouse? Vision Pro uses eye positioning and fingers... Yeah, something like that.
