5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Sweet Gadget

They’re surprisingly comfortable too; I was worried about the weight or bulk, but after wearing them for a few hours, they felt light and didn’t pinch or slide down.The camera quality is pretty impressive for glasses—12MP photos come out sharp and clear in good lighting, and videos are smooth. Low-light shots aren’t perfect, but honestly, that’s expected from something this small. What I really like is how easy it is to capture moments hands-free, which is perfect when you’re on the go and don’t want to pull out your phone.Audio-wise, the open-ear speakers deliver clear sound for music and calls without blocking out your surroundings, which is great for safety. The microphones pick up my voice well during calls, even in noisy environments.The Meta AI assistant is a neat feature, though it’s still a bit hit-or-miss. Sometimes it understands me perfectly and helps with quick tasks like sending messages or checking the weather, but other times it struggles, especially with complex commands. I expect this will improve with updates.Battery life is decent—about 3 to 4 hours of active use—but the charging case really helps extend that to a full day. I do wish the battery lasted longer without the case, but it’s manageable.Overall, these smart glasses strike a good balance between fashion and function. They’re not perfect, but if you want stylish eyewear that also lets you capture photos, listen to audio, and interact with AI without pulling out your phone, they’re worth considering. Just be ready for some quirks as the technology continues to evolve.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wearing Meta View feels like stepping into the future without looking like a sci-fi movie extra

C. · May 22, 2025

Wearing the Meta View glasses feels like stepping into the future without looking like a sci-fi movie extra. They’re sleek, lightweight, and so discreet that people often think I'm just really committed to fashion-forward eyewear. The setup was hilariously easy—just pop them on, sync with the app, and boom, you're living in 2030. The built-in Meta AI has quickly become my trusty sidekick. Whether I'm trying to remember which screwdriver is a Phillips head or identify the mystery car parked down the street (it was a 1978 Datsun, thank you very much), the glasses quietly deliver the answer without interrupting the moment. And don’t even get me started on dog breeds—I’m officially the person at the park confidently whispering, “That’s a Bernedoodle.”The best part? Meta AI subtly saves conversations when you least expect it. Just the other day, I was deep in a chat about the Hudson River—how long it is, where it starts, all that jazz—and while my friend fumbled with their phone to fact-check, I casually asked Meta AI. A tiny, quiet voice in my ear told me the river’s source is Lake Tear of the Clouds and that it’s about 315 miles long. My friend was floored. The conversation flowed smoother than the river itself, and I looked like a genius without ever pulling out my phone. These glasses are like having a pocket-sized, socially aware encyclopedia that knows when to chime in and when to stay cool.

1.0 out of 5 stars Update 2. Device so useless as to be unbelievable. Software is not ready for Prime Time

B.T. · July 9, 2024

This is an update to an update to an update. I’ve officially downgraded these glasses to one star. If the Bolo Gods would only let us use negative values I would be even happier. . After almost 10 days of trying to use these things while on our European vacation, I have to declare them the single most defective, most useless device purchased on Bolo (or anywhere) in a very long time. I normally carry both an iPhone and iPad with me. The software is so kludgy that it never knows where or how to connect. The Ai function does not work at all. Period. No amount of fiddling will make it work. This, in spite of the fact that I’ve tried connecting to the US via a VPN. To make things worse is the fact that you will often, and unknowingly, begin to take either photos or videos. I have some stunning photos of my shoes, the carpet, and the bright blue sky. This all happens as you sit in a lounge chair looking goofy because the LED light, which cannot be disabled, blinks to let people know you seem to prefer a video of your shoes rather than the stunning native scenery. People tend to alternate looking at you as both a pervert and an idiot. Good grief, I can’t wait to send these things back to Bolo. The value of this product should be about $10 and be on the rack in the convention store with the other cheap glasses that are more often stolen than purchased.These glasses are so useless as to be really unbelievable. They will not stay connected to any iOS device. They constantly lose Bluetooth connectivity. It seems the Ai function is not available outside the US as it refuses to work in Europe. The glasses refuse to connect to a European WiFi. Whatever you do. Do NOT believe any of the glowing reviews from the YouTube hucksters who are getting free swag and being paid to tout this product. Take it from me. These glasses are not going to do what you want them to do. Rayban you should be ashamed of lending your good name to a carnival side show barker such as Zuckerberg.So, while everyone is posting somewhat rave reviews, let’s discuss the cons of owning these glasses. I bought these glasses for use both on vacation, as well as an addition to my studio cameras that I use for my Edge Of Innovation channel on YouTube.The software is wonky. Seemingly it will not pair with two iOS devices. For example, you cannot pair the device with both your iPhone and IPad. Once paired there is a goofy, convoluted process to do a full reset of the glasses in order to pair with another device. Speaking of using with an iPad…there is no iPad specific app for the glasses. To use the Meta View app one must use the app as an iPhone app in the enlarged view in the portrait mode. Software this bad from two major companies is simply unacceptable in today’s world.As we all know, there is no love lost between Apple and Meta. This becomes clear when using this device. It is my greatest hope that Apple will create a competing device and Sherlock this device from Meta.I should mention that the only reason this is not a 1-star review is because the glasses themselves are okay as far as actually working as sun glasses.

Buena IA
