In my opinion AR is much more useful than VR and I can't wait for this tech to properly take off 🚀 The fact that both is possible with these is even better because who wouldn't want versatility. The most obvious other use case that comes to my mind is navigation and a more immersive experience for voice assistants who could display pictures and answers in written text. Nice for mushroom hunting as well if people are into that.

My concern with use cases like this is the ability (or lack thereof) to scroll through plans, zoom in to parts, or being able to clearly see the part of plans you need to see.

One great use case is for working out in the field. For instance, I could see these glasses being very beneficial to me when I am trying to work on my laptop from my truck. I’m used to having a large 32” ultra wide display at my office that I use for CAD work. However, when I’m in the field and working from my truck, the smaller laptop screen isn’t as conducive for CAD work or multitasking between several different programs at once. Being able to display an extra monitor or two with these glasses would be a game changer.

This review was a lot more informative than the last one I watched on this product. Thanks for that.

As a fisherman I would love to see Augmented Reality glasses mixed with a fish finder, side scan, and a topographical map to give the angler a basically literal transparent view of where the fish are hiding so you can know where to cast. You can know when and how they chase your lure so you can change your lure action to entice a bite. And you can even know exactly when to set the hook. Aaaaghhh the possibilities 🤩💫

Probably useful for translating languages in real time too! Or converting languages to text you can read! I think the future is going to be big when it comes to VR especially when the technology improves and everybody can afford it! Soon it will be like just buying a cell phone! Matter of fact VR might become the new cell phone in the future!

One of the problems with the idea of AR Glasses, is that there's a good number of the population that already has to wear glasses. It's nice that they thought of that and offer a way of ordering lenses based on your prescription, but I can imagine it would be pricey to have to change that out every year or two if you keep the glasses long term If they make a version made to comfortably fit over existing glasses, I could easily see myself using something like this for casual things like TV or Steam Link

FYI, glasses don't cost $400 a pop, not really. It's only the stores that are part of the Luxxotica monopoly (which is most major brands and pretty much any store connected to your optometrist's office) that charge that much. Go to other stores (Warby Parker, Zenni, etc) and they're more like $15-60. I'm not sure what the process is for getting lenses in the frames for these AR glasses but I bet you can get it for under $20.

My brother lives in the US while I live in Italy. I can clearly see a spot for these devices in the future. Just imagine... we could both wear this pair of glasses, maybe they will have face-tracking, and we can both speak and see each other. Avenger-hologram-like experience. Even more, It would be super impressive if, when needed, we can share our point of view with the other. Like, again, I am outside for a walk, doing window shopping, I see something interesting and I can say "hey look at that, what do you think". How incredibly useful this could be in the industry. I am an architect, I already use VR headset and I know it is already impressive. But these glasses are the first step to the game-changer experience of having multiple people discussing design around a table, watching real objects, real sketches, and real documents while looking, also, at a dynamic 3d model in the center of the table. Keep up the good work, I can't wait.

That's what VR Headsets are for. I understand the point you're making, however the real use of this would really be the convenience of sitting in an uber to entertain yourself, cooking, learning hands-on tasks with youtube videos, maybe even learning new exercise/yoga techniques. But the,"Hey look at that" is really provided on the smart phone. With facetime, videos, photos. I mean if you're gonna spend almost 400 dollars for immersion and, "face-tracking, and we can both speak and see each other." you might as well buy the oculus which provides said service in a much better light. Especially the newer models coming out as if recently. But yes AR does have some cool potential! Although I wish you could just provide the battery with a portable charger and the glasses could maybe be added to a service plan to provide it's own stable interface. I don't like that it would drain your battery on the device it's connected too, rather inconvienent if you're taking the glasses out while using the battery on your phone to even be able to use, which we very much need.

Personally, I have an apple phone and I’m not sure that I’d want my glasses to be wired so for now I’ll pass on them until the tech improves. Would they be useful for working, though?

It looks great, but I'll hold off until the app support for something like this takes off more. My other gripe is control, using the phone as a makeshift controller looked okay, but is just too clunky. If hand tracking sensors (or maybe gloves that work in a similar way to the phone) were added in a future iteration they would be perfect imo. I'm sure that would be horrible for phone battery life, but when AR glasses finally start to take off, maybe we rethink smartphone designs to better accommodate them, or allow for passthrough charging and carry a high capacity portable battery (my quest 2 solution lol).

Big step for AR. Conact lenses are next within the next 10-15 years based on technological exponential growth.

This would allow me to freely roam the venue and not have anyone bumping into my iPad while I’m trying to mix. Only issue I haven’t figured out yet is control of the app. I assume there is a mouse type device that I can have in my pocket.

these are so close to the product ive been searching for for years now, that i think i might have to get a pair... as a fairly die hard by the average persons standards vr tech geek i love this idea. i already have a full body tracking VR rig (yay dancies) but have wanted to find something i can use while watching twitch streams, or in a virtual call. i would love to use this kind of product for similar usages you mentioned, aswell as maybe attempting to mount a keyboard to my forearm or something for around the house... i guess i could attempt to use some kind of speech to text software for basic text input. i guess the phone would have that already so maybe just mount the phone to arm instead with a runners band idk. i personally would also probably attempt to pair with a folding portable bluetooth keyboard so i can maybe handle basic writing on the go. i used to use my phone, but it got awkward having such a tiny screen to work with. being able to maybe handle emails and stuff, or watch a movie when laying down would be nice. especially if unwell. i remember using virtual reality to project multiple monitors in my virtual space, like 10 or so all stacked up.. i get this tech is basic comparatively , but i hope one day to get there, so i can maybe handle that kind of usage too...

oh and really hoping software support takes off, i think a product like this really needs some good quality dev support either from the company themselves, or some kind of encouragement to get indie devs working with this kind of platform. i think a lack of decent software is what will make or break these kind of products from surviving. maybe in the future we could see some kind of add on tech 3rd party or otherwise to add existing functionality. again software more important, but if enough hype came off these, and the physical product was maybe open enough to 3rd party manufacturers.. maybe someone might make a oculus quest inspired hand tracking sensor (maybe a external head strap device or similar that interfaces with the product, or the devices connected to it...) and in that same vein.. maybe an external clip on camera... leave the tech open enough and consumers themselves will come up with their own home brew solutions too. go pro could be mounted inward perhaps for that one person out there... ive seen alot of creativity in the VR space over the last couple years from people trying all sorts of home made and collaborative group based projects. from making non standard headsets work with things it shouldn't (psvr with a pc for example) or phones/xbox cameras for full body tracking instead of the over expensive individual things we currently use. people had to make strain reliefs and mundane products to mount tech to our bodies while in vr... mods and overlay apps to make the tech work better, (instead of waiting for manufacturers to hopefully bake it in) honestly, the power of creativity is incredible if allowed! dont be closed like zucc, or you will kill products like this, be more open to the community. which, looks more like how this device is. i am very excited for the future of this AR based tech, as i think it has a great many uses in the professional world, corporate world, and entertainment worlds alike... even for usage scenarios like the bed bound or disabled people in general. i think this kind of tech has an extremely useful potential as well as being highly entertaining. lets hope this is like the new android or takes off at least alongside vr! sorry for the rant im oddly passionate about this stuff

This is a stunning reminder to me about “google glass”. How hyped it was, and how much it miserably failed in the end. This seems much more advanced and better, guess we’ll just have to see the outcome.

Could you run any android app you want on these glasses? Basically can i basically screen mirror my phone screen?

If I would connect some bluetooth foldable keyboard with the track pad, and some cable that will allow me to add charging while using. Will that work?

Well, they look funky, a little too funky for my personal taste. But I like the idea for sure. I'm still waiting for a more "normal" set that wouldn't make me look like the geek I am 🤣 Great video Mike, you explained it's functions very well, it's pretty involved. The price is easily it's best aspect to be honest. If they looked better, I'd definitely not mind paying that price for sure.

We have been hearing rumors if Apple smart glasses for years. I imagine in ~5 years, we may finally see a pair and at that time, mass adoption will begin. Who knows if they will take off before then. I really hope they keep finding new use cases though!

These are easily the least funky glasses I've seen in the AR space and don't draw any sort of looks for looking funky either

@@gman102formyspace Hahaha, just because they're the least funky doesn't make them not funky....they're still fugly. I haven't seen a single set yet that can pass off as non geeky, but admittedly they are at least trying to do better as of late. Still not even remotely there yet though....

Damn in the future people will have AR in their eyes and will be enjoying all sorts of new stuff like virtual feeling, taste etc.

I'm thinking of one of these for the following use case. I'd be interested in your opinions. Outdoor macro photography. Outdoor macro photography isn't great for using a camera's viewfinder because you are usually shooting low to the ground. I can mirror my camera to my smartphone, and even click the shutter via a smartphone app using the cameras built in wifi. The problem is that it's awkward handling the camera and the smartphone at the same time. These glasses seem like a solution to that problem. So two questions: Would mirroring my camera to my smartphone via wifi, and then mirroring my smartphone to the glasses work. The other question is how do these glasses work in broad daylight outside? Do bright lights interfere with the experience?

Would you use these while driving? Placing a pc window on one of the screen corners?

I'll buy a pair of AR glasses when they get 4k screens. 1080p is way too low to enjoy and causes eye fatigue if VR is anything to go by. These companies shouldn't even be pushing out these products at anything lower than 4k.

I wish people would stop calling these smart glasses. Its a display.

There's undeniable smart tech in them. Head tracking and eye tracking, for instance, requires processing.

AKA "smart glasses"

These glasses are crazy! Really nice Video I have so much Ideas about what to use them for. I just have the question: do they have a function where they are completely like Vr and you feel like you are somewhere else or is it “just” like watching on as big displays as you want? Because i wanted to get VR for gaming on Pc in VR but if these AR glasses have the function to nearly be like Vr glasses they are just way better for nearly everyone.

Thanks Mike! Great review! I was wondering, if I plugged this into my laptop, would the resolution be good enough to actually look at documents and work on them? This may be way better than using a portable monitor for work. Thanks!

I had my first work day using these paired my with my laptop. Awesome experience. No issues with Outlook, Word, Excel, etc.. Only issue I had was when content was screenshared from other people with a resolution greater than 1080p.

@@ronaldomurataj2519 I'm not sure if laptops work with AR. I've only tried this with the mobile app

Can't wait to try these! I love watching movies with my Quest 2 so I'm curious how these are

I need to know. Does each lens display something different or the same thing. I'm blind out of my right eye and my fear is not being able to use it to its full functionality. Is it possible to only use with my left eye and properly? Will there be any issues or things I won't be capable of doing with them?

how do these work? I mean, do you have to connect a phone to it for it to work or not?

What's your opinion to use them for work. I've been traveling a lot and for me it's hard to carry two monitors with me all the time, so Im really considering buying those glasses

Gonna have to get a pair🔥

Are there any good mini travel hubs with PD and USB-C DisplayPort pass-through so you can charge a phone while using the glasses with it? Or at the very least a splitter of some kind that allows charging a phone while having a USB-C display such as the glasses connected to it.

So do you need a prescription for them? Or can I use them with perfect vision

can you increase the size of the displays? or the virtual screens? like zoom in/out ?

Does it handle stereoscopic video? Like are you able to watch VR180 videos on youtube with full 3d stereoscopy and look around like you would in a VR headset? If so, that's fire. More useful than the vive flow lol

Is the resolution good enough for professional musicians to read music from a standard paper size (7.5" x 11" / A4). Could a musician easily read a pdf of music projected in this device? For that matter, could this device replace an e-reader?

Can i use them for reading? (pdfs, kindle) or will it be blurry

It would be awesome for them to make a battery to connect that could be like a neck wrap like the original Power Beats, add an extra connection so you can connect your phone/ laptop while th battery is connected it’ll be SOLID, or even if it could be wireless, like a screen share app for iOS/Mac OS, Android OS, Windows, etc…

got a question, if you in the car with no wifi for the glasses, but the phone has cellular data on and it is loading stuff, will the glasses load stuff?

Thanks! Would be helpful to know how the interface works...I am seeing a long thin white cursor line moving and opening apps...how does that move around and how do you open an app when highlighting? Does the secondary device act as a remote clicker? Also: did not notice any mention of battery life...and can you plug it in, or purchase a second battery? And finally: is there that nausea effect that many AR googles create? Thanks!

Can I use it for video editing? please let me know. Like color accuracy and image sharpness.

Do they work with videos and other visible features without anything? If they do can it work with apple phones?
