Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
I spent a few days using these glasses and have been ok with the results. The video quality is just acceptable but given that it is crammed into a pair of glasses I can live with it. The camera likes lots of light but these are sunglasses after all so I guess that is to be expected. You can get a good amount of video on the built in memory.
I do have some problems and worries though.
- The recorded audio is not very loud. When playing back the video it is hard to hear other people talking.
- The glasses feel really cheap. I do not feel that these will be around for the long run.
- The controls and indicators leave a lot to be desired. With the delays in turning off and on and recording you sometimes have to try a few times to get things right.
- Charging and battery life is a big guess. With no charge or battery indicator you just have to guess when it is done or dead. The instructions say not to leave on charge for extended amounts of time. This makes me think there is no charge controller.
- I think these glasses are way overpriced for what you get. They might be worth $50.

There is no way to test whether the camera is working. Only an after-the-fact check on the computer does this. The instructions are actually wrong on how to activate the camera. You must press the play button twice, with a pause in between, until a blue light starts blinking (not once as the instructions say). This was not in the instructions, is not common sense, and so (not having time to experiment with a computer) I never got the important action footage I was after. Still, it took a pounding in the whitewater and now works, so it has potential and I have kept it. The video is very, very basic quality, but that is to be expected. To end with something positive, they look okay.

Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
I see this device as having two purposes. The first purpose is to surreptitiously record someone or something. Yep, they're spyglasses in a sense. Once you turn these things on it will appear to most people that you are simply wearing sunglasses. In other words, Slick, there are no lights or anything else that would alert someone to the fact that he/she is being taped, both in audio and video.
The second purpose is the ability to video (and audio) record something hands-free. For example, if you're skiing, driving a car or motorcycle, or playing sports you can wear things and not have to worry about carrying around a camera.
For the most part, the gadget works well. It's easy to use--there are only two buttons--and it's easy to plug it into the PC and fairly quickly see the Quicktime movie.
There are a few things, however, that you may want to consider before purchasing this unit. My first reaction when I pulled it out of the box was uh-oh. The sunglasses feel cheap. I've been known to drop my MP3 player about every 10th time I play it, so I don't know how long these things will last. Maybe they're sturdier than they feel, but, honestly, they don't feel like they're high quality.
There's also not a low battery indicator. That'd be nice to have.
Don't even think about using them inside unless you have an additional lighting source. These are primarily for outdoor use.
For me, the most troubling aspect about these glasses is the record button. It might just be my unit, but I had to check each and every time to make sure that when I pushed it it was actually recording. It's kind of hinky. Sometimes I'd have to push it several times. The same thing is true when I try to stop the recording. If I were to use them as spyglasses, this would sure put a cramp in my style.
Overall, they're fun. I've enjoyed them and will continue to play with them.

Cannot use these because the directions are unintelligible.
I would not recommend purchasing this item. The directions are completely unintelligible. This was supposed to be a gift from Santa so the disappointment was intense. Read more
