I hated smart glasses until I tried Android XR from Google. Now I see the capabilities

Take off the regular Tom Ford tires that help me see and replace them with a husband from Android XR glasses that look like something Poindexter from revenge on the obsessive He will wear. In the right lens, I see a small white text that displays time and weather: 2:24 pm, 73 degrees.

If this is all that smart glasses can do, I will be happy. But this was just the home screen.

I used the first model frames to take a picture and then view a full -colored inspection, directly on one of the lenses. It was wild to see a picture simultaneously and then the actual world through it. For 5 minutes, I felt as if I was built in the mission: impossible – a nation. But instead of wearing smart glasses in Vienna State Opera and listening to Tom Cruise’s voice, I was standing in a wooden shed from 5 to 5 feet in Google I/O. The developer conference with Gemini is artificial intelligence in my ears.

Future tires are a very early primary model of Android XR glasses Google is partnership with Samsung and Qualcomm. In almost everything, these tires look like regular prescription glasses. In fact, Google has announced that it will work with Warby Parker (my commercial brand that is launched for years) and a gentle, gentle, gentle Korea cleaning mark (Beyonce and Rihanna wearing it) for actual frame designs when shipping.

Unlike regular glasses, these tires are loaded with technology. There is a microphone and amplifier that can be used to dictate Gemini claims and listen to responses. On the upper edge of the temple, there is the actual camera spoil button. You can interact with both sides of the tires. Escopes are full of sensors that explain your movements as inputs, showing Google Maps, for example, your directions, regardless of the direction you are looking for.

To date, I have ignored other smart glasses like an annoying invitation to display the high comedy for a friend. They don’t seem to deserve effort and price. However, this may be the turning point. Google seeks to make Android XR tire Ray-Ban Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses. During my brief meeting, I left thinking that there is definitely a wider attractiveness here, especially if Google can get more people to try it. The controls appear as intuitive as a natural extension of Android phone. After years from now, I imagine going to the ophthalmologist and asked if you want to add Android XR and Gemini optional – how much we are now asked if we wanted to paint blue light.

The prominent feature for me is the small screen on the right lens of Google glasses. But describing how the screen works on these tires approaching the Defcon 1 levels of technology mastery, so I have recruited some help. Since Luke Skywalker has Yoda, I have Scott Stein from CNET, who saw everything when it comes to AR and VR glasses and headphones. It was found that he had a preliminary experience similar to these glasses last year.

Stein told me: “These glasses contain one screen in the right lens, which is displayed via a small LED chip on the arm on the evidence of the paved waves on a small square area on the lens glass.”

This offer is where magic occurs. Not only can the Android XR interface and animation can be shown, but they do so in colors – even with the few pictures you got. I was also affected by how the user interface disappeared when I did not use it directly. GEMINI is merged from Google into XR, so I can ask my glasses to give me more information about everything I am looking for. In the Lilliputian-Size Size, I asked Gemini about a few paintings on the wall. I could hear responses through the spokesman in the glasses of glasses, but those around me could not hear anything. Certainly made me feel like a spy.

Then I got Google Maps. I never knew that getting trends could be very enjoyable. I saw a circular map with street names and an arrow indicating the direction I should go to. When I moved, the small map rotates. I felt a little like moving the camera in a video game with a console for a better view.

It was. I have any preliminary doubts for smart glasses. But I have questions. How long does a pair of these glasses take on one charge? Are you supposed to use these daily frames? Should I have a pair of second regular glasses to wear when I charge them so that I can see it? How much does the husband cost me? Will there be a height of people who walk in the walls because they distract their attention from everything they interact with them on their lenses? Google does not have much to share it with me yet, so I think we will discover more in the coming months and years.
