Spectacles are the first hardware designed by Snap, which was launched in 2016. With the latest arrival of Spectacle 3, Snap has become one of the fastest-growing AR glasses companies. They are smart glasses with an in-built camera, which allows you to take videos and photos of your visuals.
Overview
It’s an easier and immediate option for capturing videos and photos directly through your glasses without reaching for your smartphones. It allows you to capture videos and images while you are cooking, playing, running, or drawing specifically anything that requires movement. Moreover, it’s like carrying a GoPro on you all the time. It also allows you to use your Snapchat feed simultaneously and get creative using your Snapchat filters too.
How Does It Feel and Look?
Spectacles 3 are customary glasses stacked with two side cameras. The Third generation Spectacles includes a metal casing that is accessible in dark and gold shading alternatives. The metal casing also makes the Spectacle a little heavier than usual light-weighted glasses, which you usually wear. The customized nose pads on the Spectacles 3 make it simpler to fit on more individuals. The side cameras are easily identified and thus prevailing all the privacy issues. Its retro look adds more to its aesthetic value, making it usual for people to carry it when they step out of their homes.
How Well Does It Shoot?
Spectacles 3 allow its users to capture 3D Snaps, which can further be changed with AR filters. In contrast to previous Spectacles, Spectacles 3 comes with high resolutions. An additional feature to its functionality is its wide-angle lens which allows you to capture more than what you are actually seeing.
How Does It Help You?
The Snap Spectacle 3 directly pairs with your Snapchat app via your phone’s Bluetooth 5.0 connection. You can only click pictures and capture videos on your AR glasses for the rest you need to access your Snapchat app. Your work can be easily transferred and saved to your Snapchat memories section merely through your Wi-Fi connection. You can also convert your work to VR videos and upload them on YouTube.
How Are the Privacy Features?
Spectacles 3 understands your need for privacy thus has in-built circular LED lights on the camera, and blinks each time when you are recording or capturing something.
How Long Does It Last?
Unlike previous- generation Spectacle, Spectacle 3 contains a charging case. It has a triangular premium looking leather case, which has an inbuilt USB type-C charging port. The storage capacity of the case is quite enough as it can store up to four chargers along with the bundled USB cables, when not in use. On a single charge, you can capture around 60 videos or around 190 photos, which is quite decent for a single outing.
