Customer Ratings & Reviews

I must say after being able to demo these bad boys, I immediately purchased these without hesitation. I will try to be as descriptive as possible and will update this review Demo: Right now these are only available in the US in select major cities. I live in Chicago and only TWO stores (Best Buy) had demos in the entire city. The meta site was frustrating with scheduling as they informed me they will send me a notification when a demo slot becomes available. I called the store near me and they had the demo guy in store. I immediately drove there and fortunately there wasn’t a line or anything and I was able to demo them right away. Fit and use: I already own a pair of meta wayfarers so it was pretty easy for me to get used to as I use mine daily. The demo guy fitted me with large glasses (I have a huge head) and a size 3 band that was snug and comfortable. He guided me through simple gestures like pinching to grab, pinch and turn to raise volume or zoom in on pics (pictures actually come on screen in the right lens), fist with thumb movements that act pretty much like a mouse, and double tap thumb and middle finger to turn on/off display. These are in very early stages of release so don’t expect a lot of features but the ones they demo’d sold me. The map function was amazing as I used meta to find directions and it came up with directions on the lens. I was able to zoom in and out of the map with a pinch and twist! The live caption/translation worked better than expected as it only captioned and translated the demo guy right in front of me even with background noise. Text messages popped up clear as day with no strain to my eyes and another customer walked up to look and didn’t see anything that I was looking at. Purchase These bad boys aren’t cheap, but with the technology between the neural band and display, it’s worth it. You can’t order these online or buy without the demo and again, only select major cities are selling them for now. If you don’t live in one of these cities, I would wait until meta rolls them out to you instead of trying to order them through someone else as FIT IS IMPORTANT! Updated to this review coming soon!

I haven’t bought something in a long time that I was genuinely in awe about. These glasses are so cool. I am excited to see the App Store and the support but even now they are really cutting edge. I love the translation feature and the close caption feature is awesome at night In bed. Also, they are transitionals. I love that I do t have to swap my sunglasses for them.

I am still waiting for this to arrive because based on them it will be shipped after two months which is a bummer but when I took the demo, it’s very satisfying. The glasses would definitely be useful. I just hope they do something to ship it earlier.

Takes forever to ship do to back order but very useful and comfortable and would recommend if willing to wait on them.

This is the coolest piece of tech I have ever used…

I definitely enjoyed this product. Its very cool item i would recommend thid to the world its the next furniture

Visited my local Best Buy where I was fortunate to buy a pair. Following my purchase, I recieved an email that I was supposed to be fitted and was provided a sizing guide. The guide instructed that I had the incorrect size. I was advised I could return the item. When returning, the size I needed is out of stock indefinitely. I lose.
