Re: Meta Ray-Ban Display
#332It seems like there are a lot of negative comments about Meta's glasses which is surprising to me as a regular user. I bought these both in clear and sunglasses and I love them. I've recorded some of the most amazing videos of my baby with them. Listening to music is fantastic as it's different from regular headphones since you can still hear the world around you — I've even done a few longer bike rides with them and…

#333Meta locked two games I already paid for - Blade & Sorcery VR and Beat Saber - behind account verification on the Quest 2. I already bought both of these, played them for a while, but now it won't let me use the headset without "verifying" my facebook account by sending them a photograph of my drivers license. Neither of these games are online, neither allow me to interact with other users in any way. I will never bu…
Agree. And the constant spying doesn't help either. Who wants an always online meta controlled camera/microphone in their bedroom all the time?
I'm never going to update a photo government ID to some company just to use an app. What kind of a bonkers world are we living in? Totally ridiculous. No app is worth this.

> Listening to music is fantastic as it's different from regular headphones since you can still hear the world around you Many earbuds, like Airpods, have transparency mode. The end result is the same…music while hearing background noise. In fact airpods are better because of the ANC mode that tunes out noise except conversation and other “important” sounds. I can also wear airpods indoors without looking like a dork…
I wouldn't want to wear earbuds while doing anything active, the chance of them falling out is too high.
I developed a reflex that I periodically press above my nose to make sure the glasses are in place, which was super funny when I switched to lenses but kept pressing for no good reason.

Lots of people, actually. This website is an echo chamber of those privacy-conscious.

#336> you can accomplish everyday tasks—like checking messages, previewing photos, and collaborating with visual Meta AI prompts — all without needing to pull out your phone. Why do I need to pay $800 for this? I already paid a grand to have a phone disrupt my every waking moment!

#337Well, Apple might be Cooked (pun very much intended). Tim is apparently very focused on AI glasses, but here is Meta with display-enabled glasses a year before Apple is planning to release anything.

We all love to say this, but everyone forgets: Apple has never beaten competitors by being the first – they’ve beaten them by being the best. Personal computers? Apple wasn’t first. Smartphones with screens? Apple wasn’t first. Tablets? Not first by a mile. True Wireless Earbuds? Nope, not at all first. Smartwatches? Hell no, not first. And yet, Apple’s a category leader in every single one of these areas. I don’t th…
Wat. Vision Pro was a complete flop, Airpods aren't the best on the market, Apple Watch isn't the best on the market

Well, your loss. My Oculus Quest remains the best $400 I ever spent on consumer tech.
Almost everyone I know who got a quest stopped using it after a week. It's a fun toy, but gets boring pretty quickly.
At one point it told you everyone on your friends list that had also got one - and in my case it was basically everyone I knew from work over the years. Literally the only people that used it more than two weeks were those working on VR.
Even if you try to stick with it you grow to dread all interaction with their app or OS. They have some superb technology but the product management is atrocious.

#339>Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses are designed to help you look up and stay present. With a quick glance at the in-lens display, you can accomplish everyday tasks—like checking messages, previewing photos, and collaborating with visual Meta AI prompts Can you imagine trying to talk to someone face to face, but they are giving you a blank stare as random notifications and tiktok videos are being beamed inbetween their eye…
I think this is going to be very funny to observe as a third person.
