So far so good, I’m impressed with the functions it allows me to use. The sound leaking doesn’t really happen unless it’s full or close to full volume (which the app tell you about prior to increasing/decreasing the volume), the alpha functions are really cool but I’m assuming will be cooler once fully programmed. In regards to the app itself excluding the glasses- I’d like to see an update sooner rather than later as there are typos already as well as the initial set up has a white background with a white font color, making it impossible to easily set your age, weight, and height. This can deter people from purchasing the product as the forefront (or face) of the glasses would be considered the app and with these almost negligent errors can be perceived as “bad business”. All-in-all I gave the overall score a 3/5 but I truly believe once the app gets an update, (hopefully sooner than later), I will increase the rating accordingly.

The glasses are pretty good; they could be great if you fix the app. I can't get it to work at all on my phone. I can't get the sensors to connect at all on my phone but they will connect to my iPad. The audio will connect to my phone but the app won't connect at all on the phone; the glasses just don't show up. I can't get past the "Turn on Bluetooth" screen, even though the glasses say they're connected. The text in the app is white on white no matter what picture I use, so I have to listen to the wheel scroll and feel for the vibration and then go back to the main screen to see if the information (weight, birthdate, etc) has changed. Most of the time it has not. I don't know how many times I tried to set up my profile before eventually trying it on my iPad. Please, please, please, fix the app! After waiting for three years on the glasses, I don't want to wait another three years on the app, especially noticing the extremely limited hardware warranty on the actual smart glasses.

I’m really not sure if I should be angry or sad. I received my Vue glasses today, and am probably amongst the last of people to receive what I expected to be absolutely amazing technology. Just last weekend I was gloating to a friend who had recently purchased a pair of Bose Tenor frames that my glasses would surely be better. I compared my yet to be received Vue to the better proprietary technology Beta vs VHS.Was I ever wrong. Had I done my research before opening my big mouth I would have seen that Vue has given up on its bone vibrating technology for actual speakers on its current models. In addition, had I read the reviews I wouldn’t have been holding my breath in anticipation of receiving my glasses. Heavy, uncomfortable, hardly audible, and extremely disappointing... they meet the minimum expectation of getting something, but not much else. I was reminded last night as I discussed my frustration with my 10 and 14 year old daughters that not everything can come in first place... but that we live in a society where just participating earns a ribbon... or in this case $2.2M Dollars. Sooner rather than later, Vue will be forgotten in the same way as the 200th place Olympic contender... while some more of my hard earned money will go into some other new and exciting technology that hopefully will wow me the same way as my Tesla. If you haven’t yet purchased Vue, save your money. If you have, I’m sorry but we have been lured into buying into a Vue that reality couldn’t measure up to.

It only took 3 1/2 years to get these glasses on my head but it was well worth the wait! The design & construction is quite solid and attractive. They are surprisingly lightweight but very sturdy and fit well. The lenses are very high quality and the company was very forthcoming with their updates and ability to change prescriptions mid stream. In fact, my prescription changed 3x’s from the initial order and the lenses were perfect. The quick start guide barely mentions the App which is the heart of the glasses. Pairing was quite easy if you followed the verbal prompts. Rushing through prevents pairing. Once paired to your phone (iPhone in my case), the few settings are intuitive and works well. There is a slight lag from the tap to the activity so you must be patient here too. The quality of the sound from the bone conducting pads is remarkable. As a hearing specialist, I am most impressed. The charging case fits the frames perfectly and charges effortlessly. It comes with the USB-C cable as well as a cleaning cloth. Having used these glasses for a week, I am very glad I preordered on Kickstarter and was patient with the company. Kudos to them! I look forward to seeing updates that will make these glasses even more functional.
