Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses | This is the FUTURE

[@chopsueykungfu]

Got mine yesterday. The update added video for 3 minutes, but 60 sec is good enough for my taste. Hoping the video format will change later!

[@danvirchow]

I am yet to even shoot for more than 60 seconds, so the 3 minute limit is more than suitable for me. Hope you like your glasses!

[@LeesterFlores]

Great review! No fliffity fluff! Straight up info! Thanks! Just ordered my transitions! 🤙

[@danvirchow]

Awesome! Hope you dig them!

[@iAmAsar]

My favorite tech. Best tech I bought in a very long time. ❤

[@danvirchow]

It's surprisingly cool! Very happy I picked some up.

[@dougscott188]

I have them in prescription and they work great. I like the camera as an eye for the AI. I like how it can read a sign or page of information and translate it for me. Audio quality is great.

[@danvirchow]

Agree! I find the AI quite useful and handy to have on the daily.

[@thuyanhngo7256]

Thank you so much for offering rhetorical way to avoid searchable.👍👍👍

Was on the fence, and u just pushed me over it mate

[@danvirchow]

They're on a huge sale right now as well! amzn.to/4eRAtT4

[@anothername2730]

Thanks for providing a helpful review.

[@danvirchow]

Thank you! I really appreciate your support! 🙏

[@Matias-op3nv]

Great review - you’ve convinced me to buy a pair!

[@danvirchow]

Awesome, I hope you enjoy them! Still fascinated by this tech.

[@BestLittleBarsAroundtheWorld]

These are very cool and you did a great job presenting them.

[@danvirchow]

Thank you, appreciate that!

[@robertknull456]

They need an option to take pictures with a landscape orientation. I purchased 2, transition and non transition. I'm going to use this as a language learning aid and also taking pictures while fishing, ( can't stand fumbling with my iphone).

[@danvirchow]

Landscape would definitely be a great option, but as my first pair of these, I'm happy with the options that are available! I'm sure the next generation will have all the things we're all looking for in these.

[@bryangopan]

Same here , rocking 2 one transition and one charcoal grey dark.

[@danvirchow]

Are you happy having both? Still deciding if I should get another pair!

[@anthonycapirichio3957]

U should have more subs….excellent job

[@danvirchow]

Thank you, I really appreciate that!

[@EM-fn2sg]

The best thing of of this glasses in to come back to live the moment!!!! Not more telephones to record!!!! just see!!!! THAN CONCEP IS AMAZING

[@danvirchow]

Agree!

[@TubeatzProduction]

Just imagine if they were to chuck in augmented reality technology in the glasses. I believe this will eventuate. That’s when I’ll say we’ve reached the Jetson stage. That’s my thunk anyways. Good day 😊

[@danvirchow]

That is definitely the next huge step! Might be a few years though considering things like the Apple Vision Pro allow for those things but are WAY bigger.

[@gabrielreyes4560]

Do the transitions bother you while shooting during the day? I can’t stand having sunglasses on while shooting. Considering the clears. But since they don’t get that dark…

[@danvirchow]

Haven't bothered me yet while shooting. Keep in mind, I haven't used the EVF of the camera while shooting with these on. I've only shot with the back screen of the camera so that I can see properly.

[@BKMTechReviews]

Hi good review on the Meta Glasses i love mine best bit of Tech i have bought.

[@danvirchow]

They're rad!

[@A1SmileyWiley]

Hey, I'm non-verbal, so can't talk. If I am wearing these glasses, can my partner speak for me and ask meta to do an action like "Hey meta, take a photo"?

[@danvirchow]

Yep! I have been in situations where someone around me has said "hey Meta" and it activated my glasses. I believe there is the ability to have the glasses learn someones voice to so that only your partner's voice would be recognized by the glasses.

[@sweetplaces]

If you put it on your shirt verticaly, will it work? I would like to use it for 16:9 landscape video. I was looking for this idea on KZbin but nobody ever covered it, im really surprised.

[@danvirchow]

Interesting idea! I should test this out.

[@sweetplaces]

@@danvirchow There is literely no video on KZbin using this camera glasses like that. Maybe it does not work for some reason, but at least infromation would be useful. Video name: Filming with meta camera glasses on Landscape format, does it work? Thumbnail: Glasses hung on the collar of a T-shirt

[@Bigups5ify]

Finally got a pair. Love the music aspect of these since i dont want to use ear buds or headphones, and be able to take hands free calls with them. Wish the speakers were slightly better with better drivers. I'm sure the next iteration the speakers could be improved, along with phone call volume. In loud environments, i can hear the music pretty decently but calls just seem muffled and distant from my ear given the speaker placement. If youre in a quiet room, sure, you can hear fine, but with sunglasses and being out and about, i would have like the speakers to have more oomph for music and phone call boosting. I only got the sunglasses, but would love to take a scrip version for a spin w/transitions. May see what my insurance can cover.

[@danvirchow]

There are definitely limitations with phone calls compared to earbuds since they provide a more immersive experience. However, I'm still blown away by the ability to take phone calls with glasses at all!

[@HamzaandLove]

I have 2 technical questions, how do I know it fits my face? is there any measurement test I should take? I don't want it to be too tight or too loose. Also, can i buy the regular ones and then have the lens for prescription replaced in regular glasses store? because I'm having tough time translating my prescription in the site

[@danvirchow]

I think the best bet for you would be to goto a store and try on both sizes to see which one fits you best. Also, I believe many glasses stores sell these now and would be able to give you a proper answer about the prescription. But yeah, go try them on somewhere!

[@HamzaandLove]

@@danvirchow Hey thanks for the answer, but I can't that's why I asked :( I live in Iraq and my best bet is to order them online from Amazon, so I don't have the privilege of trying them on or having flexibility if I got wrong prescription

[@GreenWormAdventures]

Thanks pal, now I want a pair…

[@danvirchow]

Worth trying on a pair at a store and seeing for yourself!

[@Moony12338]

is it worth it if I don't normally wear glasses. like are they heavy or uncomfortable?

[@danvirchow]

@@Moony12338 I don’t normally wear glasses and I don’t find them uncomfortable. I have worn them throughout a day without any pain, but everyone is different!

[@Moony12338]

@@danvirchow ok thanks

[@LEWiSG]

Can you listen to music while recording a video on them ?

[@danvirchow]

You can take a photo while listening to music but if you start a video recording, the music will pause until the recording has finished.

[@Gamingwithslinky]

Really cool concept, but I’m concerned by the privacy implications of Meta (of all people) to be capturing and recording EVERYTHING. Training there AI models, which is legal for the user as they accepted the Terms of service, but begs to question, if everything it’s capturing and collecting on other people (who haven’t accepted the terms of conditions) may want those videos of themselves not to be trained. Not to mention that little light, can be easily covered by someone who may have more malicious intentions.

[@danvirchow]

Totally understand where you're coming from. However, I feel like we as a society gave up our collective privacy as soon as we all accepted smart phones into our lives.

[@rubywilson04]

What size are these glasses???

[@danvirchow]

I got the larger version of them but ended up adding some nose grips so they fit my face better.

[@jordanriver377]

How long is recording for videos ?

[@danvirchow]

@@jordanriver377 you can record for 3 minutes at a time. Once that time elapses, you can start another video 👍🏼

[@leenyok85]

[@JoshGRacing]

What size are those raybans? Lrage or regular?

[@danvirchow]

I got the large version. I had to add some nose grips to them (link in description) because my nose wasn't big enough to hold them up properly. After some time with these, I think I should have gotten the regular size.

[@JoshGRacing]

@@danvirchow Thank you very much!

[@SFJayAnt]

Be Excellent!🤘

[@dangerkadung]

Battery life?

[@danvirchow]

@@dangerkadung around 4 hours I believe. I’ve never worn them for that long continuously. I frequently put them back in the charging case so I always a have a solid charge. There is also an on/off switch on the inside of the glasses that can be used to preserve battery.

[@longlivetheclash]

Great review! I have the RB Metas. I pronounce Meta ‘Meta’, by the way, not ‘Meda.’

[@sleepup7931]

The only problem with this device is what Meta said "It's not possible to replace the battery inside your glasses or charging case. Learn more about charging your Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses and case."

[@danvirchow]

Not having removable batteries in devices is always a bummer, but I would suspect most would upgrade to a newer version long before the battery permanently dies.

[@sleepup7931]

@@danvirchow but it not a cheap device either, but they want you to throw it away and buy a new one I guess

[@Freethecommons]

​@@sleepup7931same goes for phones. I don't think a removeable battery exists in any recently released phone for years now.

@@En1gmatic1 you clearly are taking intellectual shortcuts here. Not every piece of thechnology was created to throw ourselves shackled into a totalitarian dystopian world.

[@En1gmatic1]

@stephangauthier911 you dont even have an argument for why this particular product is detrimental to society. Now instead of pulling out my phone for anything, I just talk and my glasses do it for me. Would it make you feel better if a brand new no-name company pirates the tech so it's not lining the pockets of "scary big brother Meta?"

[@TubeatzProduction]

Who woulda thunk 🤔

[@laloelsalamanca]

Indeed it looks amazing but all these modern tech wonders of conviniency are sucking the joy and the intellectual effort of real life.

[@danvirchow]

I think the AI integration on these is more helpful than damaging. Very useful for simple inquiries, and as a curious traveler, I appreciate that!

[@squierplayer]

Let me know when the RayBan contacts come out. Then we can all have red blinking eyes like the Terminator while we are recording video. 🤓

I disagree we will not live in the moment because if you record one hour of video during the day are you going to review that hour thus wasting an hour in the evening I think not we are living in the moment and we are living an Oxymoron by living vicariously through our selves
