Smart glasses have always been a hard sell, but the Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses are a significant improvement over the original, with better photo, video, and audio quality. They look good, can livestream, and are basically a great alternative to sticking a GoPro on your head. But although we live in the era of content creators, privacy remains an open question. #Meta #RayBan #Technology

    As a cyclist, if they could record longer than 60 seconds at a time (or better yet, record the last 60 seconds into RAM), and last longer than 30 minutes or an hour of recording, then they'd be a game changer for recording cycling commutes in case of an accident.
  • As a schizophrenic that hallucinate sounds and visuals, I would love to be able to record my entire day and if I doubt if something actually happened I could go back and rewatch it. This could be a game changer for people with disabilities.

    Mics are very impressive. These would be fun to use on holiday.
  • @kittipai1632
    In addition to being well shot and well analysed, this video is also unexpectedly funny. What a refreshing bonus.
  • @tarunrocks88
    Mic was the best among all tried here. Very impressive.
  • @gatam
    First time watching a review with Victoria and I love her! Made a great team with Becca
  • @sugar_peas
    I'm used to strapping a gopro to my head/chest a lot especially for vacations. I also listen to music a lot so maybe I'll save up the money to pick up a pair. I also love your cats! 🥺 ❤
  • @BWAcolyte
    Facebook/Meta is literally the last company I'd trust with this level of privacy. I hope we have other options soon.
  • @dbransom
    Great review! They looks amazing too. During covid lockdowns I kinda got addicted to YouTube walking videos as a way of 'getting out of the house' virtually. These would be great for that, also holidays too. Yes Vic your cats are adorable and mine has the same issue with the phone... I can use that to justify these lol
  • @sabavan3411
    How good are they in answering calls? Do you can use speakers in all apps? Also, is it possible for visually impaired users to order a lens with the desired ones (l mean, for example, is it possible for a farsighted person to order a lens with a minus number?), if not, is it possible for an optician to change the lens after purchase?
  • Would anyone know if the old case from the first version would charge this pair?
  • I have a pair of these and for some reason when on phone calls they say I sound far away. Any fix for this?
  • @Huyndoan
    This gen 2 is amazing. FB did a fantastic job on this. All the basic yet essential features work very well: videos/ photos, speaker & mic. The photo needs improvement though. I took picture of a paper with words on it and the words are very blurry, even in good lighting.
  • @bob23301
    A camera on every persons face on the planet, and all in the control of meta..............now let's see what the privacy laws think about this Meta. lol
  • @antmon123
    Just won a pair - pretty amazing - they also translated whatever I was looking at (English/Italian/Spanish/French/German) - was able to answer a math problem I wrote down - was able to answer a multiple choice question on screen - basically also acts like a BT headset so all my music streaming works great - send/listen to txts and calls - v6 update now allows 3min vids 😎
  • @smarbels
    Could be useful for taking photos / videos during a hike where typically I don't want to be constantly pulling my phone out while in nature but am often presented with beautiful landscapes that would be nice to capture
  • @benjhaisch
    I’m a big wayfarer user and someone who also uses lots of action cameras for photography BTS. Just got mine in and stoked to give them a try. Wish it had longer than 60 seconds tho
  • @WillieD
    I was never able to get the last gen versions to work with an iPhone or an Android phone. The app was terrible. Hopefully they’ve made improvements there.
