I Tested Meta's Orion Holographic AR Glasses

- Meta flew me out to HQ to be one of the first people in the world to test Orion, their new fully holographic AR glasses.
In this video, I breakdown the behind the scenes of the full experience and share my thoughts for why these glasses are giving us a glimpse into the future of consumer tech
Shoutout to the Meta team for letting me vlog this!

Was such a crazy experience flying out to Meta to try these out. Let me know what you think of the video! Curious if you could see a future version of these smart glasses replacing your phone?
Yes, smart glasses is the future I think, I don't see me using a phone whene these gets good enough, the thing most people can't understand is that when ai becomes even better and you can talk with it like a real person, like you almost can already with gpt, including ai in these types of products will change everything, everything you look at ai can explain, meassure, yea what ever you can think of, if a car runs towards you in the street, it can warn you before you even see the car, the keys you forgot where you had put it knows because it remembers everything. Yes i see this as the future and I can't wait for it.
I can’t remember the last time I’ve been this excited about a piece of tech
me either, it was super sick to try these on. Felt like a window into the future
Same 😂
Dude, you're crushing it. So cool.
Just not keen on these at all - not in the smallest bit. Congrats on getting the chance to take a look tho
Neuralinks by 2040
I agree on the 2040 thing. This stuff is still far away. Orion supposedly costs about 10k each. It's going to be some time before this really goes mainstream, but it's absolutely inevitable
2040? Do you realize how much exponential growth ai brings and what weve done in just the last 10? Internet has only been here around 25 yrs. Weve done all this and its getting faster. 2040? lol
Until 2030 is released for sure...
👓🤓 can’t wait to see these out in the real world
will be insane!
If they can fix your eye sight also that'd be pretty cool, on the fly vision adjustment with zoom and micro detail, zoom in and check out the moon surface from earth 👍 I would be in
Yes, that would be a better use case.
Amazing!! Can’t wait until they’re on eBay for £50 😂
But then they’ll be outdated :/
How do you get in to meet everyone
I have something I’d really like to show zuck and everyone at meta
It will pair with Orion and other devices
If the claim that it works as well as Vision Pro is true, then that is a huge achievement in hardware wise. But still I don't think it is as good as Vision Pro due to it lack some feature like face scan and smaller form which mean less processing power
Good vid. I like what you said about apples & oranges. Lots of people are going to compare Orion to the Vision Pro because it's the only comparison, but they really don't compare.
A unique complaint I heard from the VP is "yeah, the software's cool and all, but it's such a solitary experience." no different from being sucked into a smartphone, right? The sociality of these glasses really changes everything, not to mention the size. Meta's headstart in R&D ever since they bought Oculus is really starting to bear its fruit. That's why I'm rooting for them.
the zucc is entering his prime 🏄♂️🇺🇸
Their is as snapchat has similar AR glasses that comes like a Quest 3 in a glass format and it will be available to select people so can you do a video or Meta Orion vs Snapchat Specticles please
Im pretty sure their final goal includes a glove and is highly inspired by ARI, the AR glasses in heavy rain 😷
when will this project get canned
Of course , because you have seen the future successor of your smartphone (goes to museum like the cable phone) 😂😂😂
I want this
🔥🔥
Really proud of you being able to test these products, keep it up bro
They're not "holographic", they are stereoscopic in the exact same way that all VR/MR/AR headsets are (which is awesome). It's the size/miniaturization, weight, materials, Quality of display etc. that makes them so advanced. It is possible that they incorporate their research into holographic lens elements but I think that is specifically for VR anyway.
They are holographic, this term may not be familiar to most people when it comes to ar display technology, but if you've been following the space recently, you'd know this was the coming next step for any ar/mr display technology that uses waveguides.
I think that we don't need smart glasses with so many gadgets, but instead some functionalities that give us direct access through a pair of glasses to things like navigation, translation, teleprompting, receiving calls or notifications and being able to talk with an AI assistant. I found one smart glasses that do all of this at tiny cost: INMO Go... BTW the battery is good for near a week of normal use. But there are also others similar smart glasses at higher price like G1 or Frame. BTW Orion need that you put in your pocket a device for computing as large as a smartphone, so why not using a smartphone instead ?
Meta's Orion will be able to, and is even more capable of doing all these things you mentioned at a much higher fidelity as well due to better hardware and processing power. They've basically set the hardware for it to future proof all the requirements for full AR/MR display technologies.
I do agree with you that they're better of just offloading the excess processing to a phone instead of another separate device (I actually believe this is there end goal for their consumer release model).
It will take another 5 years for price to be low. Optimistic scenario: u can buy one under 2 years at high price.
I think they’ll be priced the same as an iPhone ($1100-$1500) in 2 years
I love this but I don't want creeps to film me without my knowing. If someone is filming a indicator should be on like on a laptop.
There's literally no need for that, if someone is using these in public, there's no law prohibiting filming other people in public spaces. For more private spaces, the owners of those establishments can make their own decisions on the matter.
On an individual level, you really don't need to feel uncomfortable with being recorded especially in public (knowingly or not), because that's happening everytime all around you. Traffic light cameras, Bank and business security cameras, tourists, IRL vloggers, regular people taking selfies, etc., are all recording you whether you're aware of it or not, simply because it's done on a pair of glasses doesn't change the fact that in the modern day, we're always being recorded.
And if someone really wanted to record you in secret, there'd be no way for you to know. There are hidden button cameras, smart watch cameras, and even special made spy camera glasses that record in infrared so you can't even see the camera lens 'cause it's hidden behind an opaque glass layer.
This channel is going places. Love how you tell a story!
It's revolutionary. But I guess it's going to be popular until 2030. Unless apple don't let that happen.The tech improvements is unbelievable in past 2 years.
2040 god damn that sounds weird
These glasses will start to pick up traction around 2030 once they have the materials they need. And the pricing is fair enough.
Great Review! I so want this and the meta Ray-Ban!
have they googled glasses?
people who wear them will soon be called glassholes
lol
Looks great. By the way, the pinch gesture is present since Oculus Quest 2, maybe even before, so apple copied to meta 😅
I use quest 2 , false
"top secret consumer tech product"
- publicly showcased at connect
- won't be sold to consumers
???
Yeah I was able to try it two weeks in advance of the event (was in that demo video they showed), but couldn’t drop until this week
@@kallaway i figured as much, i feel like it would've been less misleading/clickbaity if there had been an indication that this was a reaction recorded in the past :) regardless, congrats on getting to try orion, it does look incredibly cool and i'm definetly jealous
I like how everyone just behaved like rayneo tcl didn’t release this some months ago already .if it were Apple that release this product y’all would chewed them up😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's because the rayneo (as impressive as it is) doesn't compare to what Meta has done with their Orion AR glasses. Orion has it beat in FOV, hand tracking, eye tracking, interactive holographic displays, true Mixed reality overlay (instead of the static 3d images on the Rayneo), and overall processing power.
