Video, AV920 Virtual 62" Eyewear

I just bought a pair of these glasses from Amazon. I read most of the other reviews before I decided to purchase. These glasses aren't too bad, but they aren't great either. The resolution is definitely standard definition, but it is still fairly sharp. I watched Star Wars on it and I could read all of the text with no problem. The biggest problem that I ran into was that the colors are not very good. The quality appears to be faded and the colors are not vibrant at all. I'm assuming that this is because the glasses themselves do not have as many colors as a standard screen. The other problem (which really wasn't a problem, just a feature that was not explained well in the documentation) was that they MUST be fully charged before you can try them out. They have zero charge out of the box. So I had to wait for almost 5 hours before I could turn them on for the first time. Also, I had problems with them not charging in certain outlets. They would never charge from a surge protector. The light would come on and say that they were charging, but they never actually stored a charge when connected to certain outlets and my surge protector. The durability of the glasses seems a little flimsy. I know that they wanted to make them feel light so that they would not fatigue your face, but they seem a little too breakable. Also, it is important to note that the headphones are not as they are shown in the pictures. They are loose on wires, not fixed with a bendable stem. Also the nose piece is very different from the documentation. The documentation shows how to remove the nose piece so that it can be adjusted, but in actuality, you can only bend the pieces into a shape that matches your nose (I found out later from the manufacturer website that this was an update and that it had been changed from the original design). I'm not very happy with this change at all. It makes the whole thing feel cheaper. I will say that the sound from the stock headphones is very adequate and that it is nice that the picture has some adjustments available. If you are expecting these to be the same as any of your current screens, you will be disappointed. It is a cool idea and will someday be a great technology. It's just not quite there yet. For almost $300 these are very overpriced for the quality that they provide. They would be greatly improved by having wireless connectivity and Component inputs (they only support Composite). I almost wish that they just used regular AA batteries like the cheaper models. I'm not very impressed with the charging at all.

Checked around, ordered through Amazon (from DataVision) at lowest price around, received in 3 days, charged it up (4 hrs) connected to my Ipod Video (80 GB)- Fantastic, video (though not HD) and audio. It was really easy to connect and even more enjoyable to use, rcommend this as it appears bulky in ads, but is really lightweight, use w/o lightshield allows you to see below the glasses and enables you to be aware of surroundings. Great price and quality (I also have the original Sony Glasstrons) so I think I am qualified to recommend this!)

I got these for Christmas, and I use them with my iPhone 3G. The picture quality is very good, much better than the screen of the iPhone. You can adjust the nosepiece and the way they sit on your head for the best picture. I use them at least three times a week to watch about an hour of downloaded television shows from iTunes store. I get tons of compliments from others. I am thrilled with them.

I only gave it a 3 star because:1. There is no focus adjustment, i.e. if you wear glasses, you have to wear them for these to be in focus.2. The screens themselves have a severe pincushioning effect, i.e. they are not precise rectangles; the sides of the image are concaved towards the center of the screen.

The AV920 works just as the manufacturer states. Good connection options and lightweight design are high points of the model. I would not purchase a lower resolution model (920 is just enough to satisfy people with 1080i systems at home) There is some ghosting of images in action movies and for people who wear a large hat size the built in headphones don't quite reach but are still fine for casual viewing. I gave it four stars because I would like to have had a 16x9 aspect and possibly the option of bluetooth connectivity (the wire is small, and doesn't impede use, but we live in the wireless age). For the price, I call this a GREAT DEAL!!!

Made me nauseous and the screen looked like I was watching a standard 24 inch TV. Piece of junk. Don't buy.

I have been using them here and there for watching cartoons and somemovies. They are good but not great. The color looks better on the DVDplayer than what come out of the glasses. I had no problem with visionbeing blurry or getting dizzy, but i can understand that it can happendepending in what state of mind the viewier is in. Overall im pleasedwith them, but the price tag for the quality is a bit steep. I wouldsuggest to get them second hand.

Guess I should have expected that. I bought it in November for Christmas (black fridayish) and by the time he opened them to see they did not work, it was too late to return. Absolute garbage, he was so bummed :(

Good, but not if you wear glasses.
