I'm a hobbyist action photographer / videographer (primarily skiing and roller coasters), so glasses cameras are important to me. After breaking two sets of cheaply made Snapchat Spectacles (they do some things right, but have some major flaws), I decided to research the market further. I bought these glasses and one other pair. The other product I bought was a total failure. These, on the other hand, are pretty good! The video quality is very solid, with acceptable lighting.
Other than not being able to add an SD Card (which doesn't bother me at all, but may matter to you), the only problem with this product is that it has almost no image stabilization. They flat-out will fail dramatically if you try to record things such as mogul skiing or running a road race. The Snapchat specs blow these away in terms of being able to stabilize the image. You're going to have to download a third-party app to stabilize the video on this product. Major issue, IMO, and this is the reason I won't give it five stars.
The photos come out pretty good, though. These won't work well in low light or no light, but if there is sufficient lighting, the photos will come out well.
Also, in an action setting, these are pretty easy to operate, and much easier to operate than the alternatives. I really appreciate that. This is the strongest positive of this product - I love the fact that vibration is a feature. Once you get familiar with the operation, it is a breeze to operate in even the most intense environment.
Love the waterproof qualities of this product! Not I can finally record water-based activities and not have to worry about ruining the product or buying an extra case.
The customer service tries really hard, and adds a lot to this product. Give them a little time, and they will get back to you with a REAL and specific answer. They care! That means a lot to me.
People are complaining about the time-stamps in some of the questions or comments. It took me a few minutes to edit the txt file on the glasses to eliminate the stamp, and I'm no computer wiz. If I can do it, you can do it!
These types of products still have a long way to go, but right now, as of the date of this review, this is your best option. The price point is very fair. I recommend it.
