    Purchase these glasses for a trip to Mexico associated with work. Lynn’s quality is typical Oakley very good. No complaints there. Video and picture quality both are very good for a camera this small, integration for WhatsApp is flawless I am able to receive notifications of incoming messages through other messaging services however cannot reply to iMessage or signal Sound quality is far better than I expected for my glasses base system. Having the ability to communicate, take photos, etc. hands-free as a welcome change.

    Great view! I use them for my running and at work sampling! The photo quality is great and battery life it’s not bad at all! But keeping in mind that I don’t use them daily. I use them maybe 3-4 times a well. Only opportunity may be the Spanish language

    I never spend more than $20 on sunglasses, but I decided to splurge. What suprised me most was the sound quality on the speakers. I loved it so much, I wish they had clear lenses so I can use inside. I ended up also buying the rayban metas for indoor daily use.

    If you do not own a pair of these, you should! They are amazing! My son absolutely loves these and they are his favorite gift ever! These are the best smart sunglasses and a very sleek sporty design by Oakley!! He is also going to wear them on the baseball field so he can look back at his baseball games from his point of view! That alone is pretty cool!! Check them out for yourself!!

    I recently tried the Oakley Meta Vanguard smart glasses, and overall, I’m impressed with the technology. The integrated audio is surprisingly clear, and I can listen to music or take calls without needing earbuds. The camera for photos and videos is convenient for capturing moments on the go, and the quality is solid for casual use. I also enjoyed exploring the Meta AI features, which made interacting with the glasses intuitive and fun. On the downside, the glasses feel a bit heavy after wearing them for long periods, and the battery life could be longer if you’re using both audio and the camera frequently. Overall, these smart glasses are a great choice if you’re looking for a hands-free audio and photo experience combined with AI features, but I’d recommend testing them for comfort before wearing them all day.

    I wnjoyed the unboxing exproence. There was quite a lot to unpack when i recieveed my package. The lenses are great, used it for flight training. Since its non polarized, I was able to use my ipad without the screen disappearing. Additionally, I enjoyed the different video settings on the glasses. Sometimes the 3k resolution is too crispy, the video wuslity starts to get buggy. Sound quality is surprisingly pretty good but don’t put it on full volume because it distorts the sound quality. The battery life is a bame chnager. That extra hour actually makes a difference.

    The Oakley Meta Vanguard is a cutting-edge hybrid of sports gear and wearable tech. It excels when used as intended—during workouts, outdoor activities, and performance tracking—where its AI features, camera, and integrations genuinely add value. However, it’s not for everyone. If you’re looking for everyday smart glasses or something budget-friendly, this might feel overkill. But if you’re an athlete, cyclist, or content-driven fitness enthusiast, it’s one of the most advanced options available right now. Rating: 4.3 / 5 ⭐ Best for: Athletes, cyclists, runners, and tech-savvy fitness users Not ideal for: Casual users or those needing prescription lenses

    Really enjoy them. The only down side for me is that they fit a little tight. Not all heads are the same size lol hopefully they make different sizes next time.

    Was hesitant to purchase but was going on a cruise so decided to take a chance. They were excellent and I was able to capture pics/vids on the go easily. I also wore them during workouts/runs and they worked great for music as well as capturing images running. Surprising they stayed on my face easily during runs.
