Great set of glasses
Love the glasses I'm in construction and often times I need to snap photos or take quick videos, these glasses alow me to do that hands free-Videos upto a minute or you can set to 30 sec. They are bluetooth so you can make calls and listen to music, it's great cause you Stay aware of your surroundings you can hear your music/Phone calls and still hear everything around you. Battery isn't bad if you use camera and phone on stand by I know like that they last a full work shift 7-9 hrs but with music on all the time Battery life cuts in half or more than half. These glasses are a strong 💪 go for me—a need to have
M**!
So nice…. I BOUGHT IT TWICE!
(Title says it all but if you want the full juicy story read on) So…I got old ! And needed glasses just as these ray-bans came out so I bought one pair to put my new proscriptions in … So grateful technology didn’t just give me boring glasses they had in the year 1286!! I got TGE WORKS!! Progressive (so I can see near far read BOTH digital Phones & printed newspapers ) … and transition lenses so I could wear them in any light… My “first all the time” glasses and I dig them daddyo I call these my superhero glasses…. It’s like having a photographic memory if you see a number on a bus or wall you can just …tell your glasses to take the picture No more hoping you have a pen… So if you have the worlds next great idea!? Just tell your glasses to record and say your novel idea or invention or stand up comedy routine INTO your glades” NO NOTEBOOK NEEDED… future authors! I love these things so I got another one just as sunglasses WITHOUT a prescriptions in them but it is equipped with rare-vision so I can look behind me…. if you look at the pictures you’ll see the ad-on…..anyway now I can watch my SIX…. When out an about. Listen to music…all same super hero powers hi-tech stuff…of my all the time glasss… Honestly the “transitions” iate too weak ..very subtle and I like dark glasses in the day… normally my super hero glasses just look like Clark Kent’s glasses (which is where it got it’s nickname) even when I’m driving in the bright desert. Hence the second buy So to recap… now we are both even older! But I can see 20/20 have essentially photographic memory and can see behind me while listening to music and talking and the phone….yeah what’s not to like! Make more! I want a full Alexa in my glasses I want VR and AR..come on impress us again ray-ban Future of eyewear great product!

Glasses not charging
Purchased these glasses in 2022 and now they are not charging. Contacted RayBan- not much help! Surprised the battery cannot be charged!

nice looking capture capable sunglasses but not ray-ban quality
Look good and no obnoxiously large video / photo cameras in the frame. Happy with video and pics given form factor. Battery life pretty good. Charging case works well to top of glasses during the day. App works well (Android user). Eye glass quality is not on par for real deal ray-bans and the arm frame build feels cheap. I've owned multiple pairs of snapchat spectacles 2 (nico, similar style) but tried ray-ban due to spectacles having technical failures > 12 months. Comparing the two, the spectacles are way bulkier but they have superior eye glass quality and are water proof. I'd love it if ray ban could put real (Italian) eye glass lenses on these (on par with their regular sun glasses) and if the unit was waterproof. I've used these for about 2 months mostly to capture friend / family activities.

Great for music, good picture quality, terrible Bluetooth consistency
Love the audio and picture quality. But the app you have to download to get the pictures is not consistent in it's Bluetooth connection and a the trouble shooting involves hard restarting the glasses and loosing your photos and videos. The app also has very small storage and when it's full you risk loosing your photos. Very finicky. But cool when they work. Update: they have made lots of improvement in there app. It's still finicky but you don't loose photos as often. Also IV found the glasses to be extremely durable owned for well over a year now and have used and abused them. Still work great.

Requires Facebook Account
This review is two parts: 1) The actual hardware: This is great hardware. Quality materials. The lenses on the glasses are a great. I expect that with the RayBan brand. Interesting charging case which is also quality. The video captured by the cameras seem to be stitched together and are generally noise free (relative to other products I have used). Excellent low light and high contrast situations. 2) Requires a Facebook account: This is absolutely unforgivable. There is no reason, NONE to have any connection to any social media account in order to offload videos from this device. It is probably why they went with a bluetooth method for connecting and limited the video length as any large transfer would take forever. Clearly they *should* have used the USB-C connection to use android transfer OR present the internal drive as a mounted drive so people can get their videos off the device. They didn't so this because they want you to have a FB account. To add insult to injury, if yuo attempt to create a FB profile with the only purpose being to use this $300 device, FB will promptly suspend and disable the account due to 'violation of community standards". Think about this. You paid $300 for a device that THEY made you require a FB account to use. You create an account for that purpose and they know that you did because the app contacts their servers and rather than put you in a "Ray Ban" security group or whatever so you can continue to use the $300 device, they remotely disable the account and therefore the app, which makes said $300 device useless. There is no excuse for this at all. There is no reason for FB or anyone else to gatekeep the use of a $300 device that in no way needs such software to work. Whatever executive at RayBan who agreed to this should have been fired on the spot. I understand facebook's interest but RayBan should have banned that nonsense.

Amazing
Amazing glasses. They take incredible video and this is from someone who is used to the 4k 60fps setting on the iPhone. Used them on my trip to Italy and captured so much beauty with the ease of that side button. Great battery life. And nobody noticed the camera unless I brought it up it’s very well oriented into the glasses they look just like normal ray bans.

Repeat after me: I deserve a new pair of sunglasses.
If you don't use Facebook and don't plan on signing up for a Facebook account, you can stop reading as this is a require info to use this product. Double the price of the regular Ray Ban Wayfarer for non-polarized and a few extra coins for the polarized version or transition lens. First Impression. Overall feels a bit heavier than your Original Ray Ban Wayfarer but all the tech have to go somewhere right? The hard case is also bigger than your usual soft ray ban leather cases but also provide 3 additional charges so that's 6+6+6 = 18 hours of usage (depending on usage), All the tech have to go somewhere riiiight???? So yes the glasses and case together is bigger.. If you don't carry around a mini-bag or fanny bag then you are most likely wouldn't be able to carry the case around and just use the soft cloth bag because its definitely not pocket-able in jeans, looks pretty bulky in sweat pants pocket with case. Setup Pair with Phone. Easy to setup, Turn on glasses wait for Green LED (This part seem like it takes a while for it to start up), Hold power button 5 Seconds wait for Blue Led, pair phone.. And you are ready to take over the world. Buttons & Controls Controlling the device, is easy, if you own wireless ear buds you might have encounter the swipe motions already easy peasy. or just use voice to control taking photos or videos. Now the buttons seems to place in a good spot to take photos and record videos but at the same time it is can be easily accidentally pressed when you might be wanting to just adjust your glasses on your face. Status LED & sound On the glasses there is a status led top right corner personally I find it hard to look at but that could just be me. Some times its hard to heard notification sound if in noise area but within quieter area the sound quality is surprisingly good for what it is. App (Test on Android) Tested with Android Samsung Flagship phone, The app is simple and easy to use not clog with unnecessary items. The transfer seems to be a bit slow for videos & photos between glasses and phone and there was a few times I have experience where it will crash the app The app provides useful tools for simple color contrast nothing advance and highlight editing, adjusting color auto or cropping. You can also use it to share photos straight from the app. Video Montage is pretty neat, compile 4 or 10 of your videos into one awesome video. Music choice is limited to a handful only, The auto template only has 3 style now I assume they might add more layer? (The app overall needs to be more polish) Overall- You will run into bugs using the app if you are not a techie it might be a problem. unless you just have extra $$$ and need a new pair of sun glasses than Do it buy it now! :)

Ottimi occhiali
Gli occhiali hanno delle lenti polarizzate che sono ideali per la guida in giornate molto luminose. Le funzionalità multimediali sono ottime per creare contenuti per FB e Instagram, rispondere alle chiamate e ascoltare la musica senza molte esigenze. Utilizzando la lingua inglese per i comandi vocali si possono inviare anche messaggi WhatsApp.

All day use
That's my one month review..Those glasses are perfect to catch any moment with one click..It has touch sensitivity to raise the volume or answering a call..You can listen tou music, YouTube, etc..pictures are clear even at night..you can shoot 30 sec or 1 minute videos..The transition lenses are perfect for inside or outside use.. CONS: difficulties to answer a call with touch sensitivity...but responsive for music... I recommend 👌
