Thanks for showing these things off! This kind of stuff gets me really excited. Display out has always been a MUST for me since I learned about it and devices like this are the reason why. Love it
I have bad enough disk issues and repetitive stress injuries that I switched to a left handed mouse so I could compute w/o pain (I am right-handed). My problems are relatively minor, and I adapted. When I see tech like this I imagine that there's someone out there who maybe can't even sit at a desk and feels cut off from the person they were. I hope that how we interact with technology continues to evolve so that everyone can be included.
I know that pain. I switch mouse hands almost monthly. Absolutely agree. There's so much biology we're overlooking, and so much more we can do to bring others along.
I am that person. Sort of. Overworking at my computer for years gave me serious spine issues, so I can’t sit at my desk for long hours anymore. I have to take frequent breaks that sometimes hampers productivity. And I have to transition between Sitting and standing too. Also I avoid working on devices like phones or tablet because looking down and working is a no no. I used to draw and paint before. But because of my spinal condition, I’ve had to give it up. I also yearn for a more mobile lifestyle and being able to work on the go, so I bought one of the ar glasses to solve most of these problems. But instead of Roku’s I bought nreal. Let’s see how it goes :) btw if your mouse or keyboard are bugging you, you might wanna check out wearable input devices like tap strap and tap xr by a company called tap with us. I bought tapstrap2 and it’s pretty impressive as a wearable typing device.
This has to be the future of smartphones. Gimme a 4k Apple or Samsung branded one. That'd be dope.
You sold me on these! The way you conducted this review was super easy to digest, informative, and perfectly paced...you mastered the natural form of introduce folks to new niche things :) The used reasoning an a spit of enthusiasm was all that was needed to winn me over as a fan of the Rokid and you a s reviewer 🤌🏻 Good job, wish you all the views you can get. Thank you.
I've had these for some months now, they're fantastic. I haven't traveled a lot so they haven't seen as much use as I expected but with Ready For and these, you can game like nobody's business. They need a way to cover the lenses up fully though for video viewing; I'm going to 3D print a visor, I've seen one or two out there.
That sounds like a MUCH better solution. The Rokid visor is nice, but it's SCREWED into the frame. You can't quickly change visors. If you figure that out, please let me know!
I wonder if you could print little socket for neodymium type magnets that connects to the screw of the headset.
Let me know if its works so you can sell me one bro
Edit:
Just saw that the Pixel issue was addressed elsewhere in the comments. Thank you.
pixels don't have video out. I'm a Pixel user. I'm very interested in this product but I guess this means I'm out of luck? Is there anyway around this? I think I'm just SOL. Thank you for all the great videos, Juan! Also thank you for not using background music. It makes it easier to focus on the content.
Unfortunately not an easy workaround for getting video out of a Pixel. Sorry. It's my biggest frustration with the Pixel. Video out is fun to play with, but Google hasn't ever included it.
@@SomeGadgetGuy Thank you, Juan! This is unfortunate news, but I figured as much. Since Apple seems to have something like this in the works it would be great if Google were to do something similar in the near future. Maybe with the pixel 8 onward? Anyway, I will sulk in the corner now.
This is dope content. Fantastic portable display. Im only about 7 minutes into the video so I imagine you might mention it later but I bet this would be great while editing in LumaFusion on the phone 👀
It works great with desktop modes. 👍
The term you're looking for is "three degrees of freedom" - the interface can recognize your head turning, but it's not six degrees of freedom where it can keep a fixed position in space.
That is what I was looking for!
As a former hmz T1 user, these look fantastic. Ordered a pair and will try them out with reshade Depth 3D to convert 2D games to 3D on pc.
A little update. I got the glasses working on pc with 3d. Vorpx is paid and works well in some games. Geo 11 3d is a free mod and works just as good. I think only direct x 11 games work with geo 11, and ylu need to have an rtx card 3000 series. Not sure about the latter. Resident evil 2 an days gone works on the rokids in flawless 1080p 3d!
Buy apple glasses now
@@hemantasharma5292 Sure, do you know the location of the nearest time machine?
Это просто ФАНТАСТИКА!
Заказал себе эти крутые очки, смотрю в Яндексе с переводом видео на русский в реальном времени.
Будущее уже наступило, люблю свое время.
Rokid around the Christmas tree.
NAILED IT!
@@SomeGadgetGuy Yep
Thank you for the video. Is it possible to walk outside while watching a movie?
Great video! those AR Glasses are awesome, can't wait to see what 2023 brings us.
8:19 That's it, that pretty much seals the deal for me. I'm still new to the world of AR glasses, but this Rokid might be my first ever product of it.
Yeah I really liked that hub. If you're taking a step towards trying them out, I'll be doing a comparison soon, or you know where to hit me up for a longer chat 😁
Man that Sony HMZ was an era 😭😭😭😭
I thought that was magic back in the day. I wish I could show past me where we end up ten years later...
I wanted one so bad. Lol
Vampire Survivors! I'm hooked.
On deck OR on Android! 🤩
Excellent review.
Juan, knowing that you've been following the VR/AR technology gadgets and its possibilities in the future for some time, I would like to hear your impressions about the Apple Vision Pro and how this technology either improves or surpasses Microsoft HoloLens technology. Also, while watching Apple's WWDC 2023 I noticed that the emphasis on Vision Pro was more directed towards entertainment, while Microsoft HoloLens is more tailored to industry related field such as Construction, Science, Medicine, and lots of Professional fields.
Seems like a perfect alternative assistant device to a smart watch, especially for is who can't wear a strap on our wrist
Well, I'm not sure how well that'd work as a daily "out and about solution". I used some good heads up display glasses, and you really want a SIMPLE interface to replicate a watch. This is going to occupy more of your attention in use.
@@SomeGadgetGuy the lenses probably should be clear and the display area on the sides instead of centre, but the technology is there. Btw how heavy is it to wear for a long time?
It's not too bad really. They're lighter on the face than the old HUD glasses I used to wear (focals by north). The nose took a bit of adjusting to find a good fit without pinching, but I've been OK for longer play sessions. Longest stretch was almost three hours. The weight is less a concern than the heat. If you run them at max brightness, they do get a bit warm.
the best tool to save electricity,all combined with Gforce Now or a Cloud PC from Shadow and perfect
NOW WITH UPDATED ROKID MAX where are they available in the UK ?
Is that your real voice?
Well had me excited till I figured it's limited with compatible devices. It sucks that Google pixel ain't supported with this
Not the fault of the glasses. I've been complaining about video out on phones for years. We can thank all the techies that review $1000+ phones and only use them to do the BARE knuckle dragging minimum on them.
@@SomeGadgetGuy Fair point , OEM's need to address the issue like c'mon my 2014 Xperia can do video out. Why do they keep taking features that make a phone a phone to say the least it's frustrating. Apparently Google only allows it for their Chromecast such an apple move. I've read somewhere that there's a workaround with a displaylink adapter. I would love to know if they actually work
I still haven't found a way to make that work, but it's a bummer when HDMI out works PERFECT on other phones.
That's what kills me about the current state of the techie game.
They complain whenever smartphones don't have heavy specs and are rather lean on them, but then those same "lean specs" would absolutely be overkill for how most techies end up actually using the phones.
Now for reference, CAD software while still in its infancy Google Playstore wise, is still improving and you know, exists unlike those synthetic benchmark tests that arguably don't even tell us anything useful in terms of real usage.
So its not even difficult to think of "heavy use cases" these days for a smartphone.
The Genshin Impact tutorial is not a heavy use case technies. lmao
@@mikejames6588 Ikr, especially when the 4a, 4a 5G, 5a 5G, and 6a also has USB-C 3.1.
I have the Rokid Air and the Nreal Air. The splitter / adaptor from Rokid will never work with the Steam Deck. The Steam Deck requires 45w but the adaptor only supports 15w (5v/3A). I wanna see how the clear visor affects affects the viewing experience.
THAT makes perfect sense. Now I gotta get on the hunt for a good HDMI adapter with power in...
@@SomeGadgetGuy the redmagic adapter works just like the rokid adapter but with greater power delivery. It supports 65w. You will have to deal with the longer cable though.
I have a problem when I call ar the screen becomes black but my device is not 20 compatible. I want a solution
How about office apps, does it work with excel or word?
When you get this
In my last comment I forgot to mention this but for anyone who has this device or similar on Android:
The VLC video player does something magical and recognizes USB C glasses as an external display for media only. So if you have local video on your phone it doesn't do a screen mirror it just sends the video to the glasses. This is awesome because VLC takes way less battery than the screen mirror or Rokid Air app and allows your screen to turn of entirely while sending the video. I've not got hard numbers but I estimate it's 10% to 25% less battery usage than just dimming your phone screen - pretty big deal on long flights.
Love to see this review, I have a pair and it's spot on. I saw them at CES and wanted to give them a shot. My main thing is that they have the same display and tech as the Lenovo A3, for a fraction of the price. I think Lenovo spent *a lot* more time on the software so the integration with windows is better, but alas I don't have those. The Rokids absolutely rock for entertainment, I used them on a plane ride and it was exactly as you described.
I've not found them as I would want them for several hours of productivity, marvelous for entertainment and in a pinch to connect up to my computer. I only got to try and early prototype of the NReal glasses, has anyone here used them recently by chance? I need a larger display for my work when I travel so I have a 17", but would love to move to a 15" with a pair of glasses like this vs a portable display.
(Edit: I'm seeing I missed an NReal video he did, will have to check that out wondering how text readability compares)
Gonna be doing a three way shoot out soon with these, the Nreal, and the TCL. 👍
@@SomeGadgetGuy Awesome, will look out for it, thanks!
So since my update on my moto edge plus 2022 the 3D model doesn't work anymore any ideals on how to fix that? I bought that phone just to use them because my original phone didn't work with them
So, when it comes down to it.. If someone has neither, would you go Rokid air or Nreal Airs?
ruclips.net/video/pV2qnS5lmMo/видео.html
My youtube premire chats keep deleting. Did I do something wrong?
Can I aircast any app in my phone?
Can i use the phone as a wiimote?
Does this have an IPD adjustment?
I saw they addressed near sightedness, but did they say anything about astigmatism? My stupid football eyes keep me from enjoying a lot of these experiences. I have contacts, but even there the contacts that are most comfortable are slightly out of my Rx, so they work great in natural light, but at night or artificial displays look awful
So, they CLAIM a range of adjustment on the diopter, but I'm a small touch far sighted, so I can't comment AS much on the effectiveness for other sight issues like astigmatism, sorry.
Do you happen to know if the rokid app has a good pdf reader? While there's a lot of cool use cases for this, I kind of just want a way to read my pdf documents on a big screen, but wondering how that interface would work. I guess I could screen mirror off my phone, but do I need to scroll pages from the phone or able to use the remote point type feature to navigate?
Nothing native like that. Maybe through office in a browser? I'd use a phone with a desktop mode for more advanced document support.
Does it work for iPhone
can these be used on a work computer for work?
So... NReal Air or Rokid. Why pick one over the other?
Comparison coming soon.
@@SomeGadgetGuy have you tested these with Surface Duo 2?
Can I use my iPhone 14 promax
How do these compare with the nreal air?
Comparison coming soon 👍
@@SomeGadgetGuy I'm interested too! Subbed. I am looking for a portable screen to use for coding on Linux. The nReal Light seems amazing but has no support for linux and these ones have hdmi converter too . How is the quality for reading text? Eye strain? Would you recommend it for coding?
Can you use this as VR glasses?
Not really. They're not immersive like that. You can play 3D movies and games with 3d options, but I don't think there's much support for traditional VR head tracking.
@@SomeGadgetGuy thank you for replying
appl br stole lot of its innovation
they look silly compared to the Nreal ones
but the Nreal ones only work with i phones
you cant win lol
În this way ,people's get disconnected from reality, ff sake
This ar glasses have a lot of bad reviews on Amazon 😢
Depends on what combo you get, but the reviews are good on some links. It's tough, because these are really unfamiliar to a lot of people, and I think there's a lot of room for people to try them EXPECTING a different kind of AR or VR experience.
I wish these companies wouldn't promote the AR as hard as they do. It's fun, but not the main hook for why I like them.
So, earlier today during Juan's Twitch stream, I said I would post an idea for Samsung' premium phone strategy. Here it is:
Standard S/Flip: Same SoC as the A7? of that year, but in a smaller body, nicer build, better cameras (losing quantity for quality), 90hz refresh rate, minimum of 8gb RAM and 256gb ROM, and more premuim features like DeX while trying to maintain the same battery life as that A7? phone. "All the power you need in a small form factor".
S+: A 1-2 year old flagship SoC, same build quality as the standard S of that year, bigger size and battery,120hz refresh, same premium features as standard S, same storage minimum with 12gb RAM, and better selfie camera. "A little bit bigger, but a little bit nicer".
Note: Just call it the "S23 Note" instead of the ultra.
Fold: Same as the Note, but reduce the display refresh rates to 90hz for better battery life. and less heat.
Things that would benefit all phones here:
SD Card Slot
Headphone Jack
Faster Charging
Charger brick in the box
ultrawide selfie cameras for that motion tracking that Motorola has on Ready For
ir blaster
This is my idea for how Samsung should handle their premium phones from now on. What else do you guys think should they do?
Ugh, get that to Sammy please. It's a MUCH better strategy than their current Flip and A line...
From now on is a strong word if you specify the number of RAM and storage and Hz, sounds more like just next year's lineup
