The reason why the transitional lenses don't work well in the car is because they work with a chemical reaction to UV light. The windscreen/windshield is laminated glass which blocks UV

Transition lenses not getting dark enough in the car isn't an issue specific to the Rayban meta's, it's any transition lenses in any frames due to the way the glass is made in your vehicle. The latest transitions help but certainly aren't anything close to regular sunglasses. BTW, it should be emphasized that the battery in these is terrible. You will certainly be surprised by how quick the battery runs out when using them for things such as video or audio.

I love that you brought up the point of feeling like you need two different glasses, which can be a pain. That's an excellent point that I think a ton of people will not realize. I'm trying to figure out which ones I can wear to work, but I can't wear sunglasses at work so I might have to deal with swapping them for sunnies. I also would like to take some POV videos of myself driving. There's tons of moments every day worth capturing, so the more you can wear them the more moments you can record without pullout out a phone. I love that. One video I watched made that point that when you're wearing these, and having interactions, it's more genuine than when you have a phone/camera pointed at someone. I think they will help me listen to more music or that's what I'm hoping for as well as capture myself making drinks as a barista mostly, as well as a few other ideas.

I got transition prescription lenses in mine. I had to play around with app settings to get the best battery life and I am pretty pleased. The AI and Audio features are fantastic. I can have the camera look at something in Spanish and read it to me. I rarely use my AirPods Pro now. I will record training videos and zoom calls with as the audio. It is great.

I hate swiching between glasses. Very good point. However, I will always prefer separate sunglassses over something like the Meta/Ray-Ban glasses any day. I like the idea of being able to capture video (content) with one pair, but light conditions for my eyes take prescedent, as in your case as well. Lens tech has improved vastly since the 1990s, but we still don’t have a good full indoor and outdoor lens-yet. Thanks for your perspective.

I tried to make the list in order of importance. Already horizontal would be big improvement. The 4K would let you use video also vertically in reels. I think that 120 fps is for those who like to and can make cinematic videos.

Thank you for this review. Most reviews are from 6 months ago. And from tech reviewers that dont have the same interests i have. But you sold me in saying these are for anyone that just wants a pair of glasses in their head and saying how much you use them for audio. My main interest is getting my first set of Raybans... im extremely interested in being able to listen to music with them. And the video or photo aspect as well the ai just seems like fun add ons to me. And the price doesnt seem that wild as i only paid maybe 50 bucks less for my dolce & gabbana prescriptions.

Once they update to landscape ability and higher resolution this will be a great option. Also helps my eye insurance covers half the cost lol.

Dude thats a very bad review.. You skip the most important stuff at very beginning.. I pause only to give you thumb down and to write this comment. Most important is THE BATTERY LIFE. It always is the main thing, and then we can talk about stuff it can do or not do. Its simple, how long will it run on a single charge, and how many times can you charge it from the charging box. It is so simple. Impossible to screw up. You say its a long term review and you didnt even test battery life. Thats the first thing I did when I got my Ulefone with 18000mAh battery. If you wanna be using these you wanna be sure they work. No battery issues or that. Thats why most sports cameras fail. Cant use 30 min sports camera on a mountain climb that takes whole day. Same thing goes to these glasses. Content creators will want to use these if the battery holds up lets say entire town trip or something..
