Snap’s Spectacles 3 have arrived with a striking new design and a much higher price - $380, up from $150 to $200 for the previous edition. Snap’s latest glasses are pricey but hint at where the world is going. They begin to integrate Snapchat software with the real world.

The Verge great review. Thank you for taking the time to prepare and present it. I’ll definitely keep an eye out as Snsp continues to modify and upgrade Spectacles, but as advised...I won’t be purchasing them anytime soon.

Snapchat is really missing the point. They need to decouple it from snapchat and focus on quality, look and ease of use. They need to give it a universal charging port like USB C. There's such an opportunity to own this market before it takes off.

@hazonku 3 года назад

IMO they lack the money and technology to own this market, even with a dominating head start. Even if (and that's a big if) they got it together, streamlined hardware & software into a cheap cohesive unit they just don't have the money or know how to keep pace with Google and Apple who are working on actual AR glass. Google recently acquired North (a Canadian AR company and the only company doing better than Vuzix in this space), and Apple has been working on theirs behind the scene for years and years. When AR drops in 2021 and 2022 Snap will be left in the dust still trying to figure out the R&D side of things. How many times did this guy say novelty in his review? In my opinion Snap's best move would to be to actually embrace that. Be the cheap novelty version of AR that appeals to kids & young adults too cheap to invest in Google or Apple's expensive offerings.

If you guys want you can add me on Snapchat to see surfing and all sorts of cool stuff I do with mine . I love like looking out in the world while I record. I see other people when traveling they lift up their phone to take photo but they aren’t even paying attention to them BEING there . That’s what spectacles feel like. Your still aware while record cause you don’t have a rectangle screen in front of your face

As an owner of the snapchat original spectacles, I have found these useful in capturing moments that I cannot get off of my cell phone or camera. The best camera is the one you have on you! I notice that there is much better audio feedback from the spectacles 2, and this new virtual reality technology seems to be where we are heading next. I think that snapchat has a good sense of setting the trend with these wearables. As for how many people are using snapchat, I use this platform a lot for business purposes too. I can honestly say that snapchat has done wonders for my store and am looking into getting a pair of these new Spectacles 3!

@TCrimson05t 3 года назад

100% correct. The concept itself isn't the problem, it's the execution. Snap can have it a part of its Snapchat suite but realize that it's not the form it's the function. These should literally be "GoPro for your face" and if they can improve the battery in the microphone and the ability to record for longer & lower the price...these could literally be a hit. If they video much easier to export. the idea itself, as somebody that used version 2.0 of these, is really good.

See, I'd imagine them being perfect for that. The only caveat is you will need to be wearing sunglasses. Although apparently you can just easily pop the lenses out and have empty frames or even go a step further and install prescription lenses if you need them. Let me know if you end up making a purchase on a pair and enjoy them.
