    this is an upgrade that actually makes me want to buy it, much better than gen 1
  • @fatcrruise6508
    what i want is a glasses that display maps and notifications
  • @HasanBabasi
    When it gets AR capabilities I will heavily look into grabbing one. I love the direction we are going with AR and glasses. Google smart lenses were so ahead of its time.
  • After all the updates the version 1's are finally ready for the masses. At launch I was disappointed but now I use them all the time. Gen 1 will record 30sec videos but Gen 2 will record up to a minute. I'm definitely considering upgrading.

    Does it have software video stabilization like GoPros...? I think that it's necessary for watchable videos on the go, especially since I'm going to get this for cycling and hiking mainly. It would be great to record some rides or listen to audio without covering your ears for safety. I can see this being great at concerts, so you don't have to hold a phone or watch the screen, but needs to be good in low light for that to work. The transitions model costs the most, but seems worth it to be able to use it in situations where you don't want shades, i.e. indoors and on cloudy days. How cool would it be if they sponsored a Tour de France team so we can get FPV! and Happy they partnered with Ray-ban, as the Wayfarers are classic and look good on most face types, and they don't even cost that much more than regular Wayfarers.

    I already have the first version, they have no plans update the software for Livestream?
  • @TravelChimp
    do they work without facebook? i.e just for video on ur phone? (locally)
  • @vinnym8221
    That is quite a leap from gen 1. If they’re able to achieve this much in a year then I’m waiting for gen 3 to get new ones. Hopefully by then we’ll be able to record for 1 hour straight 😊
  • @rcinematic
    Might be a silly question but do hats affect the led light sensor when trying to record?
  • @Casper-fl1wy
    Hope the audio is a lot better. Could hardly hear anything on the previous gen
  • @jeffdeprey6279
    Do they work for talking on the phone with them on? Do they work with Spotify and if so do they work well with Spotify, as in do I have to always say play this song on Spotify, or do I set that up in the app once? Thanks. I have so many questions and the reviews for the glasses seem to have zero details.
  • @punchykarma6685
    Once the software gets more advanced and the VR/AR morphs into each other then I think these will take off
  • @KingTechHD
    Nice. Been using them for months and they’re great for hiking
  • @mlau8899
    Any prescription lens options?
  • @Akshay-vq1uv
    What is the storage please? How much long video can it store? If i live stream will it stream on my Facebook for longer duration
  • @haarinaathy1721
    This is gonna revolutionize the vlogging industry and make vloggers to come into the social media industry. The price of this tech is the one sooo surprising even when pairing with Ray ban.
  • @ladron6161
    google just needs to release google glass again, or something similar with HUD so we can see notifications and gps, music controls etc. Thats what everyone wants they kinda got it right the first time.
  • @benjhaisch
    Can you start/stop video recordings with touch instead of voice?
  • @medicus5964
    Is there a Spotify tap for music on Rayban meta glasses?
  • @chattone82
    se copriamo il led bianco della privacy con vernice, compromette alcune funzionalita degli occhiali?
