Review on SVWSUN Camera Glasses 1080P - Wearable Video Glasses for Outdoor and Indoor Use (Includes 32G SD Card) by Kantrel Tunstill

Revainrating 4 out of 5

There are TWO VERSIONS of these glasses! Know which ones you want!

I wrote a more detailed review after my first Towero Camera Glasses 1080P arrived and I've been using them for a month or two. There are TWO different versions of these lenses at Revain, one with a gloss finish and the other with a matte finish. THESE glasses (which I am writing about here) are MATT. This makes the shiny little camera lens in the middle of the bridge of the nose much more visible. Don't get me wrong, they worked just as well (if not slightly better than the button issues on my first pair) my other pair, and I quickly chose them as my primary ones, despite the lens being more noticeable. If I needed them for observing I would go for a shiny pair as the glare from the glasses tends to mask the glare from the camera lens. I've ordered two more pairs of the glossy version (my first pair failed due to an overzealous eyeglass cleaning spray salesman - beware - they're NOT waterproof but then again they're not advertised) and I'm glad they work just as well as my matte pair . Just make a note of what type you are ordering. They work the same and appear to have the same lenses (my lenses were fitted by Lindsey Eyecare in Port Richey, Florida - they made custom lenses to fit these frames exactly - amazing). Finally, a little tidbit of information that you might not find in the manual (which is a bit difficult to understand as I suspect English is not the author's native language): If you want to STOP the video recording, press the POWER button Button. The blue light turns on and then off (you turned off the glasses). To start recording again, press the power button (to turn it on), then the action button (another button closest to the lenses, not the power button) for the familiar double flash , and then the lights go out - you record again. They WILL record when plugged into the charging cable (it looks a bit odd, but I've been able to record continuously for over an hour (in 5 minute increments like glasses do) with no issues. Finally, a few words on 32- g chips. : They're not all the same. Look for write speeds OVER 10MB/s. I've tried a few different ones and with cheaper chips that only have write speeds of 10MB/s ONN, some stuttering and freezes (although audio still worked great). Wal-Mart's have a write speed of 10MB/s and don't perform nearly as well as the Samsung chips which have a write speed of 20MB/s. However, this is just my experience. The format for the chips is FAT32 .I tried formatting them NTFS and the glasses didn't like it at all just so you know I hope you enjoy these glasses as much as I do even if they're not perfect they hold everything what they say you just have to pay attention and work according to their performance parameters I liked it so much that I ordered two more shiny pairs although one pair was DOA and I am sending them back. Another pair I've just tested and I'm actually happier with them than my original pair as the buttons work properly (sometimes you get a pair with a sticky button which is annoying). So this product deserves a solid four stars from me, and that's mainly because I'm a bit picky.
