Even Realities G1 Smart Glasses: Unboxing & First Impressions

[@thetastefultoastie6077]

A display in my prescription glasses is a dream come true But for me to drop £1000 on these I need to be able to display info of my choice that is important to me, so it becomes an extension/augmentation of myself So far, to me, it seems like a really expensive clock, I'm not interested in the other features If there were an API, with which I could permanently pin custom info, the utility would be endless (as opposed to abusing notifications) I could track how much money I've spent today, and how much that compares to my average daily spend I could check my current speed and trip distance when cycling/riding my electric unicycle For the latter, I would also rather look down, than look at the sky, to check it If the utility is restricted and I can't make it work for me, then it's just another cool gimmick The hardware looks amazing, now it's all up to the software and what you can do with it

[@TheEldritchVoid]

Exactly this I want a driving HUD paired to my phone with currently playing track and ability to skip it from the frames like a smartwatch level of features paired to my phone as an extension

I'm a pilot, and use heads-up displays. This is natural to me, and I am excited about seeing a pair.

[@thespectaclefactory]

Cool! I wonder if it would be useful as a pilot to have certain information available directly in front of your eyes

[@mostguitarswins]

I have a PPL, and although I haven't actually used a HUD it's the first thing I thought of when I saw this video. The value of a HUD when flying is obvious, but in eyeglasses I'm not so sure. Info on a HUD is directly related to flying, but info in these glasses does not have anything to do with walking or driving. Now, if there was a way to link these glasses to car data, e.g. speed, turn-signals, etc, to create a HUD in the car, THAT could be useful.

[@robertschneider2189]

@@thespectaclefactory That is the point of a heads up display. We have most of the flight information in front of our eyes. It might work for small aircraft, but what we need is real time information. My charts are now all electronic. Putting in checklists might be helpful

[@COsterTag]

I think a lot of you are missing the point. These are supposed to be a different kind of glasses, not complete augmented reality. The creator said he wanted to make them as light weight and normal as possible. Adding a speaker and camera is not lightweight and often NOT stylish at all. Ive also come to realize the numerous complaints on battery life and the fact that when humans see a camera pointed at them, they constantly wonder if they are being recorded and sometimes do not appreciate it. Completely different kind of tech.

[@thespectaclefactory]

Exactly! Glasses first and foremost, and the tech is an awesome feature

[@positiveslip]

As a meta owner - 99 % people I met don't know that metas have a camera in them. They just not on the edge of tech to have that idea

Yep this is what I’ve wanted when I heard Apple was making glasses. They really missed the mark and this nailed it.

[@JSquiff]

This is it. It's innovation that is CUSTOMER first and not just about the tech. If anything it's AR done as intended and not just a projector and camera forced into something that looks vaguely like glasses that could take a bullet.

Having actually tried a Google Glass I think that was closer to these than anything else. That you could tip your head up and see the time and notifications, just like these. Glass was a HUD that just happened to run Android, not a phone that just happened to be on your face.

Hello, I'm severely visually impaired and that's lead to a lot of complications with navigation and reading etc for my whole life despite tech advancements so when I see things like this it does make me smile as these look absolutely perfect for someone like me.

Also, can the text on screen be enlarged as that would really help? Thank you. I'd love to try these but they cost a ton so I'd need to ask first. Thank you

I’m an “Oversize Load” escort driver averaging around 100k miles per year. We are typically legal a half hour before sunrise to half hour after sunset. I spend a lot of time driving from 3:30 AM until night time. A huge safety issue I deal with every night are the headlights of both oncoming traffic and what’s behind. So many aftermarket lights and suspension mods end up literally blinding me with misaligned headlights. Add poor weather and visibility and I’m purely steering on skills learned as a pilot and that’s runway…or roadway environment picture. Chasing that tiny thin line on the right side of the road, that’s barely visible while in a sweeping turn, while blinded. Backwoods country single lane roads, gotta love them in the middle of the night. Used to be the only real threat was the wild animals darting across the road but now you gotta deal with ridiculously bright lights. If there’s a way for this technology to help deal with this issue, let’s see what it can do.

“Magnesium is more durable than titanium”? Are you ok?

[@Providence83]

Yeah, he's talking total rubbish there. Tried to find _something_ to give him the benefit of doubt but the best I can think is that he means by weight? Mg is lighter than Ti and glasses probably aren't going to have forces exerted on them to deem using Ti... so you could argue that with a load that underutilizes Ti's strength Mg is better for it's weight but "durability" doesn't even mean anything in properties of materials, it's like an encompassing term for a bunch of properties.

[@N1BNfilms]

I agree. He is totally wrong. Mg can even burn. Ti is a very resilient material.

[@scottfarrell3943]

Yeah titanium is stronger but mag is strong enough, is lighter and has better thermal properties. So it will disperse heat better which probably makes a difference when it comes to glasses with electronics which likely generate its own heat. He is a little bit off the mark but magnesium may very well be superior when it comes to glasses. If you are likely to be punched in the face while wearing glasses, choose titanium. Otherwise magnesium for the win

You don't gain anything and you'd see the display in camera, whereas teleprompters are able to be directly in front of the camera lens without affecting the image at all.

They have two small speakers that G1 don't have.

Can we save 20000 words in offline notes and view them offline?

[@thespectaclefactory]

I believe so

[@tariqghuman]

Is it extra to add precipitation to these? I would like to order them.

[@philipkamhi]

When will you be releasing additional sun clips for these?

[@y2ksw1]

What's about focus? Is it close up or rather projected into space like a hologram?

[@barneymiller4088]

The problem with AR and VR is input and what to display. When AI is incorporated so that it can become an expert in you and predict what you want and how you prefer it to be displayed, they will be useful. Then the input and display can be enjoyable and not a burden.

I have a google glass that’s on a shelf , I hope that some brand can bring this from factor to main stream, it was so cool and powerful.. it was next to having a super power

[@chetanakethinedi6114]

If you want it answer a question for you with working, do I have to speak out loud to it or can I just look down on the paper and would it just have the answer on display?

[@tromtacular]

That would be great; handwriting recognition so if you’re in a meeting, you can write the question on a piece of paper (or a kindle scribe etc), generate the answer and then provide the answer to the group. Cool idea.

Really interesting product. Will it suport myopic

[@Ughthisagain]

Is there a link to these somewhere. Or do I need to do a virtual appointment since in the US to get these? Are these covered with FSA or HSA insurance yet? Thanks !

[@BreadPitttza]

My ideal smart glasses would be a pair of wide angle glasses which automatically adjust focus for far or near sight, modify opacity according to brightness, turn a yellow(ish) tint for the fog and with image enhancement in low light or darkness.

[@ericchausse1701]

Can you use these glasses to magnify whatever you're viewing through the lenses? Essentially, enhancing one's visual acuity?

[@monstermovies6917]

It's so light and wearable, I mean, it’s probably the closest any smart glasses get to looking and feeling like regular ones.

[@thespectaclefactory]

couldn't agree more

[@mironovsan]

I am looking for a display replacement. For the rest of the features on the go my smartwatch is fine.

[@peterdamaris7112]

I would be interested in a pair, but I need glasses that have a high base curve (9 or 10) and preferably aviator style large lenses. Is that likely to be possible soon?

[@thespectaclefactory]

I don't think so

[@michaeleber4752]

I would like these better if they figured out a way to dynamically provide a prescription lense instead of statically ground.

[@greatgimliy]

Quick question. If I needed a new prescription would I be able to go to my opticians or would I have to sent them to the manufacturer? Thanks

[@thespectaclefactory]

I think you'd have to order a new pair

[@monkeyboy8me]

Im wearing them in an interview and have the answers ready to read from my glasses

[@Giovanni2862]

Will it be possible one day to have some shops in Italy too?

[@thespectaclefactory]

Us? Maybe!

[@WoWu-d5x]

What, if you need to have optical corrections in you’re glasses ? Is that possible ? Are there limitations ? Can that be done by a local optical person ? Has it been done in the factory ? What is the price ? A lot of questions unanswered.

[@thespectaclefactory]

Check our follow up video! But the short answer is yes, they can be made in almost any prescription. If you'd like a pair, just email us via [e-mail]
