Even Realities G1 AR Glasses Hands-On Review

[@SpencerScottPugh]

How do we feel about the Even Realities G1? Any questions I didn't answer in the video? Let me know down below! *Get yours here!* geni.us/SSP-EvenRealities-NC *Check out my BTS Newsletter* spencerscottpugh.com/subscribe

[@mintakan003]

I found one of the most useful "hands free" option with my smartwatch, is the 2FA OTP code notification. Don't have to pull out my smartphone. Do the notifications on the G1 show this?

[@pan6593]

Well…..the question to me mainly is what do I need like almost always „displayable“ ? It comes down to software and I haven’t seen much about that (except messaging, translation and navigation I guess). To me it‘s all about ‚information workflow‘. I would be interested in notetaking, tasklist, calendar, so I don‘t miss dates, reminders and tasks. I don‘t care as much about messages, for others it is mainly about exactly that. It comes down to what can be tuck into the glasses software ecosystem and the vendor would be clever to invest in cooperations and offer an API to tie into existing information sources of what the customer love.

I'm looking for ar glasses I can match with something like a wrist worn keyboard and write reports or ideas down with discreetly. Keep my work from getting stolen or keep highly competitive coworkers from sabotaging my efforts. Could you look and see 1. If there is even a possibility of connecting any kind of bluetooth keyboard and 2. If there is any way to write things down in a note or document. And 3. If there is a way to scroll through longer text?

Ray-Ban Meta glasses are great. This Even Realities G1 seems great. Both in their different way, but I think there needs to be glasses with both combined. I like the way Even Realities has made AR, instead of goofy big ecosystem goggles. Both the G1 and the Meta glasses at least look like normal glasses and let you use them as normal glasses too, even with prescription lenses. I think this is an excellent opportunity for Samsung to blow away both Apple and Meta, if only someone could tell them.

I do security surveillance for a living and I get a lot of updates via text. I don't know how many times I, or another team member, will lose track of a subject because of looking down at a phone, or fiddling with a smart watch, even briefly. This results in lost time, money, and frustration. A slight tip of the head while still being able to maintain your surroundings would be a godsend.

[@PhilTParker]

This is certainly in form, a groundbreaking demonstration of next level tech. But again, this is also the perfect opportunity to just wait for a year or two. The reason is that “they” whoever thy are, will certainly improve on these tiny displays. Color is on the way. Full screen movies and completely immersive vision tech is on the way. I already have so much in my Xreal AR Ultra developers edition glasses. For the first time in my life I was able to open a demo app on them, reach out in front of my face, and see my virtual hands in front of me. ready to manipulate virtual objects. The future is here now, but at the same time, it’s only “just” around the corner as things become lighter and more powerful. What’s amazing is that those little frames also appear to have cameras mounted on them. That part makes the “AR” or “Augmented Reality” part possible. Soon he will be able to place his hand in front of his glasses and manipulate menus with his fingers. We are getting to Minority Report and Tony Stark. This is coming people. Look forward and enjoy what is coming.

I wish you have covered the AI of these glasses, and the ease of use. Also the notes function.

Can I display multiple notes? etc. Do I have to tap in order to record?

Up to 4 summarized notes are kept on the main dashboard you can cycle through with right side taps. Default is the last 4 notes. You can use the app to move specific notes to the top 4 pinned area

Great review - am excited about these, but one question that hopefully you could answer? The larger section of the legs (right at the end, which tucks behind your ear). How much space is there between that large section and the back/top of your ear? I wear hearing aids, and I’m worried that it will be impossible/uncomfortable to wear them (receiver-in-canal style, which means there is a small device that perches behind by ear at the top) with glasses such as this…

[@SpencerScottPugh]

This is a hard one to answer as everyone’s head shapes and sizes are different… with my head personally there would be enough space for the hearing aid. Might be something you’d have to order and try and send back if it doesn’t fit, sadly. Or see if anyone near you has some you could try!

Great review! 👍 I'm really interested in the transcription feature of the Even Realities G1 AR glasses, particularly how it works for live captioning in English. We're considering these glasses for someone who is hard of hearing, and the ability to see live captions would be incredibly helpful. Could you explain how the glasses handle this? I think you might need to use the translation feature and select English so that spoken English is directly transcribed into captions. I'd love to hear more details about how well this works in practice. Thanks!

[@SpencerScottPugh]

I think it’s a great use case. Yes, you have to select English translated to English. You only get a certain number of minutes of pro translation each month, and you have to start the “engagement” in app

[@ullasnn]

@@SpencerScottPugh Thank you for your reply! I just wanted to clarify a couple of things. When you mention that we only get a certain number of minutes of pro translation, what exactly does that mean? And what is the engagement option? I'm not familiar with these terms, so I’d appreciate any further explanation.If someone wants to use the live captioning feature throughout the day every day, will it not work after a certain point? Do we need to pay extra for the transcription feature to keep working? It would be really helpful if you could explain how this works.

@SpencerScottPugh Since there's not microphone in them, do you have to have your phone out between you and the person you're speaking to in order of it to hear the other person to have their words translated?

[@trianglesankaku]

Thanks for the review, really appreciated your honesty ! 😇 I've pre-ordered mine last week but I was just wondering about 2 things : 1) About the translation feature, I've seen on the Even Realities app-store that you can pay for "translation time" ("translator_1_hours = $4.99", for example) but what is the monthly free "pro translation time" usage given ? (before having to use the in-app purchases) I understand they probably use an API that cost them money, making this feature limited in usage, but I hope they give us at least 5-10 hours free usage time per month :x 2) About the AI feature, I've read that they use an API from ChatGPT, but I was wondering which API they use : ChatGPT 3.5 Turbo API, or ChatGPT 4o Mini API ? Since the 4o Mini API cost 60% less (according to OpenAI), I'm hoping they are using this one. But if by chance you have some time to spare before your next video about the G1, could you test running the same prompt on your G1 and on the ChatGPT website to see if they give a similar answer ?

Been searching for smart glasses for visually impaired children and students. It is very hard for them to always carry around iPads etc. They need books and reading material projected as head up displays. If this had a camera and AI like the Rayban Metafarer they would be great.

[@SpencerScottPugh]

Agreed!!

[@ishyandmikkischannel8811]

@@SpencerScottPugh Even without the camera and AI this is very interesting. Even my eyes get tired from reading from phonesz tablets, monitors. If they can the ability to project books like Kindle and Pdf's that would be massive bonus points. The other question is about prescription. Many of the visually impaired have very poor long distance vision (in addition to other idiosyncratic visual imapairmentals). I known that projecting say Kindle or PDF on to 45 or 65 inch smart TVs or projector helps them a lot. But this means that the HUD equivalent in the G1 must not display too small. So it seems that at least prescription correction for myopia is essential.. Finally, there is a commercial opportunity for G1. As someone who has spent nearly 20k of own money trying to find visual aids and devices for children, the market is cornered by very expensive but not very functional we devices costing from 2k to 6k etc. But at the right price point, when funding in the US for individuals might come from State or Federal budgets, this is a commercial opportunity. You might sell to only 0.1% of the normally sighted community.. Only 8% of the US population have visual impairments.But the percentage uptake is likely to be higher than for the normally sighted community. At the right price point, I expect a significant percentage to consider something like the G1. And that's without the camera. Long as more of the phone fuctioality can be projected on to the glasses.. Even just screen mirroring. Is that possible?

The secret sauce is simplicity, seamlessly integrating tech into our every day life without becoming too big a distraction. This is why I like the idea of head movements triggering the HUD. Maybe a camera feature could be added later if it doesn’t add too much bulk. This could be useful when combined with AI.

[@SpencerScottPugh]

@anastasiawhite7482 good points! 🤘

[@Proverbman]

I'd like to know more about 2 aspects that are on the current model. 1) One of the reasons I hesitate to purchase/pre-order these was because of the translation feature remains unclear. How well does it translate? Accuracy? Speed of translation? Does it still require to look slightly up to see the translated text? And, most of all, on their site they note on their translation section, that "charges may apply based on usage". I'd prefer not to have to pay a subscription fee to translate Japanese to English. But they don't really clarify it on their site. 2) Do they plan to solve the water/dust weakness? Because I work with flour and oil daily, I often clean my glasses by running it under a spout and using weak/mild soap to get them pristine. Doing so prevents the micro scratches that using only a fiber cloth without water would cause....and, obviously, soap makes the oil come off a lot easier.

[@astronomypunk]

Just got mine. The translation mode has a free and paid tier. Trying both the paid tier is actually very fast, 2-3 seconds to translate pretty accurately ( tried Spanish with a friend) the free tier is slower by like 5 seconds and not as precise. Both will display in real time right in front of you but if your talking back with the person it will get confused and try and translate you too😂 I don’t have any experience for the water or dust proof yet, I have been babying them for now

[@RyneLanders]

I just bought the glasses and my charger does not work any longer, it is not charging at all so my glasses are not working. What do you suggest me?

[@SpencerScottPugh]

Are you putting them in the case right? Folding the left arm first then the right?

@@SpencerScottPugh yes, of course, I even bought another new cable thinking was the cable that went wrong

I'd like to go back to talking about transcription. There are many of us who are hard of hearing who would love to have at least some real-time transcription in English and other languages. From reading comments here, it appears that transcription is treated as an English-to-English translation which presumably would becomes pretty expensive at $4.99 / hour. Also, it appears the G1 glasses have their own microphones (which is way better than using mics on the phone), but it's unclear where transcription itself is occurring -- on the phone and through a subscribed service or through on-glasses software. I would think having to go from glasses microphone to phone app to a transcription service would introduce a lot of delay. Lastly, it doesn't appear the user can turn off transcribing for his/her own voice and only transcribe the other person talking. (This is a very convenient feature in many phone based transcription services) Is that correct? Could anyone comment on my various questions and speculations? Thanks so very much.

This is probably a stupid question but...the clock on the dashboard can display a 12 hour clock, right? In the preview videos I've seen, it's only been a 24 hour format

[@SpencerScottPugh]

I think so… I just have all my devices on 24hr!

[@DaBigCheese75]

You can change it in the app

[@TheEtbetween]

How big are the letters! Can you adjust size?

[@SpencerScottPugh]

hard to really give an idea.. 12-14 point font maybe? haha You can't adjust, currently

[@norbertschubert9419]

Thank you for the info

[@davidsouthwell4572]

How’s the translate function in really considering buying a pair for traveling

[@robhamilton5057]

i would buy these right now but they are too small. they only have one size available and it says they are adjustable but they are around 15mm narrower than my regular glasses. i had the same issue with they Ray Ban meta glasses.....even the largest size felt tight but then they had thick arms which diddnt help, they did look ok though but these look too small on my head.

[@SpencerScottPugh]

Hoping for more sizes and styles!

[@salijahplayz4192]

Does the text stuff work when you whisper for example, or how loud do you need to be?

[@SpencerScottPugh]

Good question. Probably in a quieter setting mics are at temple and point down

Sure is! I show it very briefly. Works decently well!

is there blue light filter already build in? I ware the glasses only when working on computer

[@hiltonjon7454]

in telepromter mode can you tap the glasses to go to the next page, Im thinking of giging and some songs would be great to have some of the lyrics on telepromter mode but i wouldnt want to get my phone out to go to the next song say. Very niche use case i know but wondering if this is possible

Is the screen fixed to the world or the lenses? Like if I turn my head a little does it move or stay still?

Fixed to lenses

[@DANIELFernandez-cj4ce]

Can it take pictures and record video like the metas

[@SpencerScottPugh]

No cameras

[@ParTravels]

i kind of regret not pre ordering them. But at the same time i do need more functionality that currently is not there. i need to be able to customize what i see in the screen. Live Tasker values or whole live feed app data.

[@SpencerScottPugh]

Safe bet to wait for a bit if you need more functionality

[@akeluify]

You can pipe tasker stuff to it through notification

[@ParTravels]

@@akeluify thought to do this but getting a notification every second beats the purpose. I need to look at live data

How was the translation feature. Sometimes I wanna just set it to English and use it as subtitles when I can’t hear people. 😂 Thoughts or comments? It’s the whole reason why I would consider buying them. Since my GF’s family speaks another language and I can sometimes not hear or understand what my friends are telling me in person 😅

[@SpencerScottPugh]

That's a great use case. I found it to be a lot quicker than I thought it would be actually. Lags here and there but nothing crazy. Would be interested to see someone use it in a different country or something to get around without knowing the native language!

[@joseph_vtaco]

@@SpencerScottPugh still worth investing into it then? 👀👀

[@SpencerScottPugh]

definitely would get a pair to try and see how it works for you, if you have that cash to spend.

Correct only when you raise your head. However you can adjust how high you need to raise your head

hows the comfortability with over ear headphones? im wondering if it would be uncomfortable because of how large the touchpads are
