I have been waiting for this release for quite some time as when I tried the set before these I was far from convinced. These do the job wonderfully, the size of screen is excellent and the sound is tremendous! These are also fully set up for 3D and I am eager to see if they do as good a job as they do 2D. Teamed up with an iPhone and either the iPlayer or any DVD or music video they offer a superb portable large screen option.

The only criticism if any is in the design, initially I thought the fact that they do not fit your face like a pair of normal glasses was a drawback but on further usage I can quite easily walk around my house have dinner, make tea ect whilst watching whatever I wish to watch.

I rate this product very nearly as highly as my iPhone and that is I can assure you is quite some endorsement. B E A Utifull!

A lot of people ask why the resolution of video glasses is relatively low (typically 340 x 240  or 640 x 480).  The answer is chiefly that the small screens are only millimeters from your eyes and so even a low resolution will produce the equivalent of watching a ultra high resolution cinema screen seen at a distance of fifty feet or more.  For screens as small and viewed as close up as are these, the important thing is the sharpness and quality of the screens, and those of Vuzix wrap video glasses are as high quality as they come.
