These are strangely amazing to have. If they could be about 10% louder I'd have no real complaints. I love wearing them during work with the blue lens filter, and the ability to have some music and still hear everything, and tossing in the shades for going out on a walk.
I just picked these up, and I found that cupping your ears with them on provides insanely great sound. Obviously, no one is going to walk around holding their frames to their ears, but It's something to try situationally.
@@josesilva6366 they can in a quiet setting, but wearing these to shoot pool, or going to a bar, or really anywhere there's some form of noise, no one will be the wiser.
The best part about these HAS TO BE the fact that they’re often on sale for $60 now, making them a no brainer over other smart glasses since the only thing for that price you find nowadays are strange Amazon listings. For $60 these are an absolute steal. For the $200 they usually cost, I’d rather just save up for the Bose Frames, Ray-Ban’s Stories, Amazon Echo Frames, or the Ampere Dusk
Yup. Glasses, buds, and watches are the worst expensive things to buy because of that. Always check how hard it is to replace these batteries before getting them, if you have a technical background.
I might have said it on another one of your videos but i wish the focals by north were still around. Those were interesting. Wonder what google will do with them.
Can i someone suggest how to reset these? I had much better sound loudness before and now they seem to be decreased.. Quality is ok but the volume overall has gone down.. How to get it to perform optimally?
Just go my pair today. I enjoyed your video and review. I only wish that Razer would have included an alternative way to turn off the glasses. I was going to use these at the office for the blue light filtering, and then when on break, listen to some tunes. Unfortunately, it seems the glasses will remain on all the time, which would waste the battery too soon. It would have been nice to have that on/off option aside from just closing the arms. Still, they seem like an awesome pair of glasses. I got the combo that came with the sunglass lenses as well. We'll see how it goes. Cheers!
Actually if you turn your Bluetooth off on your phone and keep the glasses on your face or don't close them they turn off automatically after awhile and you can keep them on. Them when you want to use them just close and open them again with your Bluetooth on
I see why you don't answer a lot of comments. Their questions are answered in your video. Yes they can be used as regular glasses. The company he ordered lenses from was called Lensable. With the coupon he paid $100.00 for his prescription lenses.
I think this are not meant to be used in office environment but more for gaming and individual pleasures for listening to music and gaming primarily. These are really amazing to have.
so @joshua, actually i use amazon unlimeted music as a audio streamer, and i just use their audio EQ in the user mode and fiddle with it and it great now!
Josh at @ 3:30 of the review, (which was awesome by the way as usual) it looked like a little "hook" was on the ear piece that I didn't see in other shots. I watched again thinking it was a different pair but wasn't, what was that? Also do you think these are better than the Bose frames, I'm considering both right now, thanks for the great reviews Josh!
Those are Keepons! They're little silicone hooks for ears that keep glasses from slipping. They're the best. They mostly work for the Anzu, but these glasses are just heavy enough to still shift a little
My pair only have the right arm playing audio, and the left arm doesn’t seem to work… Is there an adjustment I don’t know about, can you play audio out of just one side, and I need to readjust my audio settings in order to receive audio output from both arms?? Someone else please explain this rather annoying issue to me… Are these a defective pair?
@@MichaelReineke I’ve been using them for over a week already and pretty solid so far. My only 2 gripes is battery life so far and switching the lens. I kinda wish they came with clip ons instead.
Years later at 40 dollars on amazon, these make a whole lot of sense. A wireless charging case like the ray bans would have been nice and gotten around the y cable headache, and a matte frame would have been nice, but at 40 dollars, can't complain too much, especially since there are low cost wireless charging cases available aftermarket now
Big ups for the Initial D soundtrack, especially DOGFIGHT. Love that song. Give a listen to songs by Travis Stebbins, otherwise known as Ken Blast, Odyssey Eurobeat or Eurobeat Brony.
Compared to the Bose Alto, which would you prefer audio quality wise? I just got the Bose and waiting for it to come back with my prescriptions on. My brother wants one too but now I'm not sure if I should get him another Bose or try the Razer. Use case - mostly calls and occasional listening to music while walking to and from work.
@@langrock74 I ended up getting the Razer and the quality is just behind. Bose is way better including customer service. The razer only lasted 2 months before it broke and it's been 5 months and they still haven't honored the warranty! I'm sticking with Bose.
These are hands down the best $20 frames I copped and I put my own prescription lenses in myself. I got lucky they were the same size. Just set your iPhone to accept hey siri hands free and you good to go.
I got these glasses and while I like them, I cannot get my PC to find these in order to Twitch stream with them on instead of headphones. I havent found any help on this
Wondering about accessibility for those who are deaf or hard of hearing - do these have subtitle functionality? As someone with auditory processing disorder, I would love to try these with subtitles so that I can read what people say. It would literally be the only thing I use from it lol. Are these good for subtitles, or are there other better options (that are inconspicuous and don't scream SMART GLASSES)? Also, is there a way to turn off everything except for said subtitles?
imagine these glasses with your prescription, and your phone using razer kishi, and Geforce NOW 0.0 honestly, i would probably wear my contacts and just throw the tinted lenses and use them as sunglasses. or possible transition lenses and use them as both glasses, and sunglasses (if that's possible)
I know this video is 18 months old and I liked it.But if you can get designer frames and lenses for $300 please tell me where. I find that frames are often that price without the lenses, and my lenses can cost that amount alone, easily. If Razer give a discount for lenses I doubt it would be for 3 or 400 dollars. As I said, great video and , as always, your video's are totally professional and enjoyable.
Same reason. I wear glasses as well amd was looking to get these. I don't really need quality audio, just some background tunes or podcasts while at work. Do these hold up well?
Wishing they would work for at least 8 hours for work. Using them and removing to charge doesn’t make me want to purchase. Might as well continue using Beats Pro for audio and prescription glasses.
I believe the 5 hr thing is for listening at 60%+ volume. Lots of reviewers say they're good for a full work day at lower volumes or occasional audio use.
I have the OHO. I bought this because of the price. Bought another pair for an Xmas gift. I'm also going to pay for his lenses. Twenty five bucks! I will probably buy lenses for mine as well. I don't do well in crowds and the music helps. But I don't always want to shut out the world with noise canceling.
I paid $50 for it, but I returned it for the bose tempo because it was on sale for $125... I like the look and comfort of the razer better but i rather go with sounds. Also , battery life is better on the tempo
I did not, though I will get one kitchen knife from them for all the votes I got. I'm still waiting for one of my giveaway items to arrive and then I'll do my winner selection.
Good video, nice roundup. Watching it though, I can't help but think - I don't know why this is a thing and the neck speakers (Bose Soundwear, JBL Soundgear) only got one generation of the product before they got all canned. Better sound, better battery life, no ugly glasses to replace your glasses... I mean, if you're gonna wear your speakers, neck seems like a much better option 🤷♂️
These are strangely amazing to have. If they could be about 10% louder I'd have no real complaints. I love wearing them during work with the blue lens filter, and the ability to have some music and still hear everything, and tossing in the shades for going out on a walk.
Do they have display on the glass
@@bootganger3005 they don't, they come with polarized sunglass lenses and blue light filter clear lenses.
@@dis3nchant3d42 do these glasses fog up like normal prescription glasses?

I didn't know that I just tried and you're right
Holy shit. Thank you, that's dope. Sounds like a pair of great headphones when I do it
I'm very late, but having a bucket hat or beanie on kinda has a similar effect lol
Great video man, not a fan of using glasses but considering it because of watching screens all day is really hitting my vision
Some blue light filtering is helpful, whenever you can
Bought these about a week ago and they're the most comfortable Eyewear plus getting my prescription lenses soon
I ordered both the Bose Tenor and the Razer Anzu. The Comfort on the Anzu is miles ahead. Just wish the audio was a little better.
Between the two, six months later, which so you prefer now? Thanks
Yeah pls
Yes please tell us @spazr11
Audio decent compared to tenor?
Can you pair them just one side at the time?
Not sure if I missed it, but what size did you get?
Your calm, concise, and well thought out review earned a subscription. Thank you
(Also initial D, come on man plucking my heart strings)
yea they look good, better than all the others I've seen.
Amazing review as usual , big fan of you
6:33 Nice song. :)
This is a really good review, so thank you for the video. :)
What size is the frame?

None of witch you listed have an ipx rating so aren't water resistant so for the $200 price tag your still better off with these
@@brendankoester5216except audio quality is phone speaker level is abysmal. That's a crazy low bar
Wanted to buy one of these but am concerned about battery lifespan in the long term.
They has a great battery. It lasts even 5 hours
Yup. Glasses, buds, and watches are the worst expensive things to buy because of that. Always check how hard it is to replace these batteries before getting them, if you have a technical background.
What size are used in this video?
I used the Bose Alto S/M size and liked the fit so idk if I would go for the medium or large size
the including of the initial d sound track is what made me like the video
Which size you have here?ty
What is the size of the eyeglasses reviewed?😊
Do you think $50 is a good price for this glasses?
man i love your review on these glasses! thank you for this information

Needs a flashlight on the front right or left of the frames so you have a Flashlight where ever you go
Ok nerd
Wtf
Quick question is one of the temple arms supposed to be loose ?
Anyone catch at 6:35 the demon slayer season one banger hit playing on his phone??
Are you wearing the large size or the small/medium?

I got these, got the app as well, tried everything i can to enhance the volume but it is still very low
