Apples launch got pushed back I believe, but if they launch next year I don’t think people will be able to put them back in the bag unless they launch at way to high prices
Well, actually deaf people would have a real use of this device, with the glasses giving them realtime visual clues of surrounding noise and voices, may be even realtime transcriptions?
Smartglasses without a camera would be useful to them.
Of course they have a display, what the hell do you think would be the point of them otherwise? Theyre still fucking dumb, but they’d be even more dumb if they were JUST cameras. Those have also already existed for ages. I remember seeing ‘spy camera glasses’ on Chinese reseller sites like dealextreme way back in like 2012.
No these don’t have a display. You’ve obviously never seen these. Mostly they’re a built-in speaker in the arms of the glasses and they have a camera that can record but you have to play it back on like your phone or something.
Dont know the breakdown of deaf people, but some people are also helped by all these ear/head sets that use reverberations on the bone.
The type of hearing loss would depict whether or not they can be used. (Basically if the internal ear still functions, reverb works, if outside and inside doesn’t work, it won’t help)
How tone deaf do you have to be to even buy them?
Pretty sure the only people buying these are literally tech reviewers and actual perverts.

Influencers too.
They already mentioned perverts

The glasses don’t have HUDs/screens. There are no real time visual clues.
Then whats the point of them? Just a camera?
You can ask it questions.
What? I thought that was the whole point. Incredibly lame.

The base version, which was the only one available for a while, doesn’t.

They don’t have a display.
They literally do. it’s pretty simple to just google it instead of being absurdly incorrect and then doubling down.
Most models don’t have any kind of display at all. The most recent model that isn’t widely available anywhere yet has a tiny notification window.
The vast majority of glasses out in the wild that people are using today do not have displays.
That will change, but right now, if you see someone wearing these glasses, you can be close to certain it doesn’t have a display.
The older models didn’t. Only the newest one does.
I was curious and it seems like only the newest fancy models have the screen ability, it seems like most are just camera headphones with AI.

not really, deaf people can still use it for perverted reasons too, not everyone is a saint.
