Digital camera reviews of Myvu Crystal Personal Media Viewer, Standard Edition (Black)
Digital camera Review: Buyer Beware
Summary: 1 Stars
This product is awful! I've had it replaced by the company 3 times and it still broke after only 12 hours of use. MyVu's customer service, sales, and tech support lines although the recording says they're open during normal business hours eastern time, never answer, they do call back, but who needs the aggravation of dealing with a poorly manufactured product. Although not many alternatives exist, anything would be better than this overpriced poorly manufactured piece of plastic that needs to be recycled.Digital camera Review: Clear VGA video
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this as a gift for a friend that watches TV at night but doesn't want to disturb spouse. After testing several competing glasses at local retail electronic stores, this one is the most clear display of all lower-to-mid range glasses at VGA resolution. The quarter VGA types just don't cut it watching standard definition TV programs. Also the display doesn't have the more pronounced "double vision" (or seeing 3D without glasses) type of focus issue for me and others, and gives nothing but headaches..literally.
Sound quality is just normal ear phone type, not high end.
One annoying problem is the wiring can get tangled up a bit, but that is given in design as it's not wireless. All in all its a very functional and good compromise with spouse!
Digital camera Review: DO NOT BUY, RECHARGEABLE BATTERY ISSUE
Summary: 1 Stars
As per the many other customer reviews with the same problem, my pendant battery now will not charge. Its just past the warranty, the company does not offer a new pendant on their website that I can see. In the past when they did it was an extra $100 plus shipping. So, be aware if you buy this your "rechargeable" battery is likely to die and you will get NO use out of the glasses other than as a paperweight since there will be no way to replace the batteries even if you wanted to.
Digital camera Review: Does this work with iPhone and iPod?
Summary: 3 Stars
I am trying to find out if these work with iPhone and iPod's? How do they connect? ThanksDigital camera Review: Good Accessory
Summary: 4 Stars
I really like these video glasses. I got the Crystal universal version, plus the ipod cable separately. It works great with my 5th gen ipod, and I've also used it with my dvd player and Wii. With two young-ish kids, it's been difficult to take full advantage of my Netflix subscription without staying up until midnight (not just because of ratings, but also because the movies I like don't interest them much). Now I can watch on my virtual big screen! I've been thinking about buying the Roku player for netflix, which may add another dimension to my viewing! I'm glad I got the larger screen size. I think the smaller screen would have been very disappointing.
My only knocks on the glasses are 1) they cost more than my ipod! and 2) the connection cable from the glasses to the dongle, and the ipod cable where it connects to the ipod, do not lock in place and are easily pulled out with the slightest tug on the cable.
Overall, I am happy with the product but it was very hard to justify the price to my wife.
