Not entirely, their Google Glass is now sold only for enterprise. Google is simply now letting smaller companies to take a risk and once one of them matures and nailed the product, they can buy them. Many big companies do this to reduce the amount of risk and expenses. What I'm excited is once this become a true consumer product, we just have to wait until HoloLens and Magic Leap technology to miniaturized and cram some of the their technologies into these glasses. That's where things gets more interesting. For the meantime in the near future, these glasses are basically companion devices like smartwatches.

Theses things weren't even fucking CLOSE to actual AR glasses. Even half a decade later and we still are probably another half decade away from such a product being a reality.

[@SSteelification]

"2019 everyone, I have to charge my glasses" Well I like the idea, but as a glasses wearer I'd wait till a clip on version is available for us four-eyes.

[@Afeeq1011]

Clip on version, good idea Why didn't I think of that?

[@GabrielIgnacio]

A clip-on version might not be suitable with the current iteration as they're custom-made to fit, which is required since the field of view for the "display" has to be exact for it to be visible to your eyeballs. It could be adjustable though to fit. That being said, you'd need to already own a pair of eyeglasses for it to be a worthy purchase. For now, I'll stick with my "dumb" eyeglasses with transition lenses.

[@Alternatoast]

Just because the screen is off doesn't mean that the lenses don't work anymore

[@TheDaxter11]

Paul Donaghy unfortunately for us i dont see something like that coming around any time soon, hell by the time it does well probably be long gone

[@C0DERedEdits]

North focals can be made with prescription lenses if I'm not mistaken, so they should just replace your normal glasses...

[@wovazilvovalai7864]

Not a bad concept...but the price is a little too much considering that the eyeglasses is not really a super eyeglasses.

[@jamalpeoples3736]

That's the way tech works. Until you're able to scale for the masses, tech is not going to be cheap. The first cell phone cost consumers 4 grand or 10 grand in todays money. Hopefully enough people will buy it so that the tech and get better and cheaper.

[@GabrielIgnacio]

First gen tech is almost always like this, since the R&D isn't streamlined just yet as well as manufacturing. Give it time and it'll eventually be to the level where people will start investing into it and it'll be prolific enough for us mortals with money sense to buy a pair. Either way, I'm excited as tech like this could inspire more development when it comes to wearables, which is still limited to fitness bands, smartwatches, and wearable speakers via your neck or sunglasses.

[@lehopoiss]

[@dman2520]

More or less, it seems like a good product "of the future" that simply has flaws in it's initial iteration. I'd say that if you: A. Want to be on the cutting edge of tech. B. Want something that's truly nifty that has practical utility both as a smart device AND as, well, your regular prescription glasses. C. You're in the market for a new pair of prescriptive glasses and you've got money to burn. D. Just want to see this get better in the future, because you know it can improve off it's initial attempt. That you should probably buy it. Something like this has a lot of practical day to day usage, and if they could put it on a diet and maybe lower the price by $100, a lot of people could buy into this. Unfortunately, I feel like people are going to need to buy into it now, hardware flaws aside, to ever see it get a second gen. i.e, the early adopters need to come out in force for this. And it's not like the hardware flaws made it unusable, and the software sounds largely fine. People should go for this if they can.

[@kornkernel2232]

True, I think we should not really tell other people to really avoid it if they already have some extra cash to experiment with these devices. We need early adopters for this to become successful. Without them, these kind of innovation will not be even exist. I think the price are actually not that bad. They cost 1000 USD at most, far cheaper than Google Glasses and even more from Microsoft HoloLens (this is a different beast though but I just put here since they are leading us into these AR/MR future). For the most part they just look like normal glasses except for inability to fold like typical eye glasses. So even not in use, you still have functional sun glasses to use. Software-side, this can be easily improve upon as long as the hardware allows it. I hope for 2nd-gen, they should improve the battery and ability to fold. The resolution, maybe but I think this can wait for 3rd gen. It has to improve the common usability of a normal eye glasses and able to use it longer. Resolution is more like a creature comfort as long as it does not affect the core usability. We lived through times with lower resolution screens, at least for us who are older.

[@thsieh8936]

I think if they prove to be good enough. Like the feedback is really positive they could find investor to back them up and continue to improve even if they are making a loss a first.

[@DrRDW]

Personally, I feel the echo glasses from amazon appear a bit more polished, although, they don't have the lens projection. Not to mention, hundreds cheaper. Alexa essentially does everything a person can possibly think of at the current stage. It seems that the projection, even though it is really cool, can have significant implications on interpersonal relationships. Being consumed by the glasses display, instead of focusing in on the person in front of you. Thos is especially true as the technology becomes more refined.

[@romank8603]

This looks super cool and I definitely want this in my life! But I'll wait for the next version when the tech is a bit smaller. The walking navigation looks like a game changer, if they could sync it with your cars navigation so you don't have to take your eyes of the road, now that would be awesome!

I went to get fitted in Brooklyn NY back on August the 2nd. By August 20th they we're finished and I was asked to come back to Brooklyn. (I live in Cincinnati area) so went back up there to receive my glasses. Just to find out they messed up my sizing, so I had to be refitted. They assured me they would make it a priority to get them shipped out to me as soon as possible. They gave me another 4 week waiting period as of the 17th of September to receive my new glasses.... I like how they call it "priority" but its taking them longer to make my second pair than the first. All I gotta say is I hope they get the size right this time! I've been anxiously waiting to use my focals!!

[@TheBHAitken]

The problem with these smart glasses is that they try to put too much "smart" in the glasses when I already have a cell phone. For example, I may already have a $500 phone which has amazing graphics capabilities and processors, memory, CPU & ect. but the only function it will serve is to share access to it's sim card to the point that it may as well be a $50 flip phone for all of the tech it actually uses while the designers are trying to put a cell phone in my glasses with no room for a sim card. I wish they would cut down the hardware in the phone so that it simply works as a monitor with the phone providing the functionality & control.

These seem really convenient, but I'm against smart glasses. I want it to be my conscious choice when I interact with technology. I want to feel like I still have control over my smart stuff, and notifications just coming into my field of view whenever takes away that control.

A Nord VPN sponsorship would be perfect for this video with the brand name of the glasses

[@donovanfausette8521]

Ehh, the Alexa part is a no from me

[@Petra4551]

Thing is... what if you normally wear glasses? Do they make the lenses to match your prescription, too?

[@torchatlas8128]

Yeah, they have a prescription version. Not sure if that version has released yet, though.

I want to Upgrade My Face to become Smartphone 😀😁😂

Funny, the notification for this video came up at work when I was discussing the idea of having a smartphone in your eyes or near with a heads up display instead of a proper screen like a phone. Kinda cool actually. I slightly hope this serves as a segway to potentially implement the features and hardware of a smartphone into ourselves, with the necessary safeguards and such in place for security and safety reasons. Glasses that do this seem to be the much more convenient option though than something like an implant.

Me: *driving* Glasses: YOU HAVE AN EMAIL! I'M GOING TO DESTRACT YOU! Me: AH! *almost gets into an accident*

Bluetooth distortion is always present when you are outside with different signal interference. I noticed that when walking outside in public street with cars passing by.

Those are gimmick as hell! I want Tony stark glasses EDITH

[@aggron77877]

Interesting, though will wait for it to get more cheep and have version without internet, just show time ,date , and use MicroSD for music.

[@lilmario0]

Are you comfortable giving a company a 3D model of your face?....

[@james68279]

Seriously thats your problem?

[@monsters8730]

Appreciate the clips of how it looks from the wearer's point of view. I am curious if you filmed this with a camera and overlaid the notifications, or if this is actual footage from the glasses?

[@danielwood797]

It would be so cool if Spotify worked with them to have the song lyrics of whatever you're listening to show up on the lense in real time

[@JamesABloomfield]

2:26 - receipt for allbirds order. That's the real good stuff.

[@Emma-LeBonCafe]

the guy in an office meeting, why is he staring at me. boss in meeting: he is not staring at you he is watching a vid of you tripping at work, peter parker you're fired. peter parker: ok just let me finish the vid

[@Theauramasternul]

Dang it, I would absolutely love these things! Holy heck I've never wanted a pair of glasses more. Unfortunately I live in Utah, which is the complete wrong half of the country. Hopefully they'll not only be better, but also more widely available in the next couple years. Maybe some competition will arise.

[@supernightslash]

"Make sure to charge your glasses soon." It's cool, but I genuinely don't see anything going for it. I can get a smartwatch for way less and well, do all of these features. My gear S3 from like 4 years ago does all of this and it's MUCH cheaper.

You review, quite easily, the coolest tech in the world! This is why I love your channel. So many products other channels don’t review, but that are awesome nonetheless. The focals look awesome, I’d love to pick one up if I’d had the money to.

Michael Fisher wearing those glasses: Tony Stark 😎

[@evindrews]

None of these will succeed, honestly, the last thing I want is more information blaring into my eyes, and more things to think about. None of them do anything better than what a smartphone does. Nothing has ever been successful as the phone / computer paradigm and trying to get people to buy tablets, smart shoes, smart watches, wireless earbuds, and now smart glasses, doesn't work.

[@AtticTapes14]

Tablets are alright

[@kinocchio]

I think there’s potential here. The UI is really nice. If they can find a way to make the glasses slimmer and lighter and maybe bump up the display resolution, this might be it chief!

[@Chemy.]

I like the idea, Maude the can move past of the hardware to a neckband, so taking aways the weight and also adding more features
