Today, I saw the official statement in the top post of the NBD forum. I really laughed to death. I am really drunk when so many gods are slandered! In that case, I also want to make a statement. I am very ordinary. I have never used smart glasses before. This is the first time. I have very little personal experience, but I bought a Lenovo XiaoY that year, participated in a board computer test activity at Shenji Workshop, and then participated in a newifi experience activity. So when I saw the god in the official statement post, I felt ashamed of the rhythm, because I am not Lenovo FANS, I am not the moderator of Shenma Forum, I do not know how to program, do not know how to do plug-ins, do not know how to do firmware, have not participated in the Shenma Lenovo Conference, and have not made contributions to this forum, so the elder Shenma is even more out of the question. Therefore, in this review, I will talk about the new glass C100 from the perspective of a consumer's experience, so my article may stimulate your G-spot, and more likely to poke your pain point. I want to show it every bit, whether it is sour or painful. This may be the first time in my history to evaluate a product so harshly, Please look down.

When I saw New Glass C1, the first thing that came to my mind was Google Glasses, which was inevitable. After all, he was the ancestor of smart glasses. I have not experienced smart glasses products, but I have seen some reviews of Google Glasses due to my concern for electronic products. I think smart glasses products have not been popularized in China or even the world at present. I think there are three main reasons:

1. It is said that Google Glasses has a life span of about 5 hours. I can hardly imagine how to make it a part of my life;

2. Software is very scarce. Search, film making, call, navigation? These are the basic functions of mobile phones. Why should I spend extra money on smart glasses to make trouble for myself?

3. For example, the price of Google Glass, which has reached the third generation, is 1W+, which is not affordable for the general public.

These three points can be said to be the three most fatal and urgent problems in the smart glasses industry at present. Of course, in addition to Google, many other powerful manufacturers are also joining in. I think this is a good phenomenon because more participants are engaged in research and development, Many scientific and technological problems will be solved slowly. I believe that in the future, smart glasses will be as popular as mobile phones and become a necessity in people's life. Take the New Glass C100 released by Lenovo NBD as an example. First of all, it has made great progress in terms of endurance. The 1340 mAh battery is very promising in terms of endurance! As for the APP of the New Glass C100, I am full of longing for it. I recently saw the AR game performance of XBOX360 at the E3 exhibition, and that effect is simply shocking! So I am very looking forward to the performance of the New Glass C100 in terms of AR functions, which can also make people happy. For example, when I get up in the morning and wear the New Glass C100, the weather forecast of today can be automatically displayed through the body sense, and the navigation path that can bring the three-dimensional visual effect to the user on the way to the office can say "today's schedule" through voice interaction, The New Glass C100 can immediately display today's work schedule. When coming home from work, the New Glass C100 can automatically remind users not to forget to buy chicken, duck, fish and meat when they go home... In the evening, they take the New Glass C100 with their wives to play virtual reality games with the PS4... You see my YY of the New Glass C100 may think that this is my fantasy, but I hope that this is the future dream of the New Glass C100, Surely these visions will come true in my lifetime! Okay, I'm not YY, let's take a look at the real New Glass C100

At the beginning, it was a huge wooden box, which immediately felt domineering and leaked! It is said that this box will only be available in the beta version. Come on, envy and hate me.

The wooden box should be made of solid wood by visual inspection. It's very tall!

What shape is this? Diagonal quadrilateral?

The lid of the wooden box is not simply closed, but has a card slot inside, like a drawer. So as long as the lid is closed, the items in the box will not fall out easily.

As soon as I opened the box, my mood surged.

The items in the box are displayed. It's strange that there is no warranty card for the manual? The engineering prototype really has a sense of rhythm that will die if it breaks down.

First, let's take a look at the appearance of the New Glass C100. This smart glasses is quite strange. In addition to the glasses module, there is also a collar. I believe many friends have seen Google Glasses. Google Glasses only has glasses module, and the battery is built into it. The New Glass C100 has a big brain hole and put the battery in the collar, which not only makes the battery capacity larger, but also can transfer part of the weight of the smart glasses to the neck. This design is very creative. I haven't checked the battery capacity of Google Glass for the time being, but it is said that the battery life of Google Glass is only a few hours? The New Glass C100 has a built-in 1340mA lithium battery, which can be used all day long.

The following figure shows the glasses module. It should be said that the appearance of this module is partially copied. However, the camera of the New Glass C100 is 800W pixels, which is slightly higher than the parameters of Google Glass (500W pixels).

In terms of hardware configuration, I think the New Glass C100 is on a par with the hardware of Google Glass 2.0, OMAP4460 1.2Ghz, 1G RAM 16G ROM configuration is basically the same as that of Google Glass. Other configurations of Shenma GPS, proximity sensor, ambient light sensor, 3-axis gyroscope, 3-axis accelerometer, and 3-axis magnetometer are all necessary. However, as far as the current research and development progress is concerned, I have not yet had the opportunity to experience these magical hardware functions.

The most unsatisfying thing about the New Glass C100 is that it is not equipped with bone conduction function! Although it has a 1.5W micro speaker, it is basically useless in noisy environments; Although it has a 3.5mm headphone connector, I don't like to install a headphone while wearing smart glasses. In fact, bone conduction technology is not new to Shenma, and I think bone conduction is a function that must be carried by smart glasses, so that you can clearly hear the voice in smart glasses no matter in Shenma environment.

Here in the figure below, the smooth part is actually a touch pad, and the operation basically depends on it. It is found that the sensitivity of this touchpad is very high after use. There are only four gesture operations: forward sliding, backward sliding, downward sliding and click operation. Simple is beautiful, isn't it?!

Let's take a look at the collar module. This module has a built-in 1340mA lithium battery. At the same time, a 3.5mm headphone interface is designed here to connect headphones. The weight of this module is 80g, and there is no pressure on the neck. In addition, the size of the neck clip of this collar is adjustable, and any user believes that it can be successfully adapted. It is worth mentioning that the collar and the cable in front of the glasses module are fixed together, so don't use too much force when wearing!

On the top of the neck bracket is the power/sleep button of the New Glass C100, and on the other end is a microphone pickup.

There is a rugged texture design on the inner side of the collar. The advantage of this design is that when you wear it, the part close to the skin has good air permeability. But I think it would be more comfortable to stick a layer of silicone/rubber material on this part? After all, it's still a little stiff from the current wearing feeling.

The collar has a built-in micro USB interface, which is used for charging and data transmission. But I want to complain about the cover of the connector. Can you make it softer? Or it is better to use rubber materials directly.

The lens frame provided with the product looks thin, and the plastic texture is ordinary. The nose rest is metal, but although it is not aesthetic, I find it is the most suitable frame for matching the New Glass C100. Do you want to know why? Please continue to read.

If you are a user wearing glasses, you must use the clip shown in the following figure. The manufacturer has provided two clips of different sizes, but the white silicone object is still unknown for its purpose?!?!? The manual downloaded from the official website didn't mention it either! Informed partner, please teach me.

The charger provided with the product, the New Glass C100, uses 5V-1A, so general mobile phone chargers can also be compatible. The workmanship of this charger is very good!

Earphones supplied with the machine Emma's earphones are typical of copycat, typical copycat! For a person who has been playing HIFI for 9 years, when he sees this earphone, he immediately wants to throw it into the garbage can.

I am pleased with the USB cable provided by the product. The weight is not light, and the quality is very reliable. The key is noodles, which are easier to store.

The classic edition! The classic version!! When the New Glass C100 is officially launched, I believe that the version I have will become out of print!

The original lens frame combined with the New Glass C100 looks very light and suitable for people who don't wear glasses at ordinary times.

This is the prism on the glasses module, and image output is achieved by it.

The front end of the glasses module (camera part) can be adjusted to a certain angle to fit various glasses as much as possible.

Because I wear glasses, I spent some time in researching the fitting of glasses module, and finally found the secret! We just need to insert the clip into the glasses module of New Glass C100 first.

Then clip the clip onto the frame of ordinary glasses.

Then I found a problem. In the figure below, it seems that the New Glass C100 is a little droopy! It is also very loose. Touching the touch pad casually will cause the New Glass C100 to tilt. The final result is that not only the wearer looks more stupid, but also the image in the prism can not be seen completely No matter what size of clip is used, there seems to be such a problem. So I think the main problem should be the clip. Is the clip designed unreasonable??

Hold the New Glass C100 slightly with your hand, it will look better, but unfortunately, once you let go, the New Glass C100 will fall again.

In the end, I chose to give up my glasses, went to the optician's shop to get a pair of contact lenses, and then use the original frame of the New Glass C100. This frame is very comfortable! And the distance between pupil and prism is just right!

Since it is to show the New Glass C100, it is necessary to show up Sorry for the hot weather. I ate too much watermelon and became a bear

This product seems to be full of technology! It's said that the New Glass C100 will show the opponent's combat effectiveness and Chakra in the near future. Let's look forward to it!

Proud and charming, take a selfie! The glasses module of the New Glass C100 is only 22g, so you won't feel uncomfortable wearing it on your head. Due to the high toughness of the original frame, even a fat man like me can wear it without problems.

The collar of New Glass C100 looks like this after wearing. If your collar is high, you can completely hide the collar

Here I have to complain again. Have you not considered the feeling of U bear? The neck clip of the collar is adjusted too little. I feel like I will be strangled when I wear it. Can you make the neck clip adjusted a little more??????

The hardware of the New Glass C100 is basically introduced. Next, let's introduce its software. First, the APP, which must first make me complain that the icon Emma is too ugly, is this part of Ashun's nebula chain? Let's change it quickly In addition, this APP has no other functions except for setting up Bluetooth connection to the New Glass C100. At present, the third-party APP that can fit the New Glass C100 is zero, so the manufacturer should quickly develop some interesting apps for us to play with.

Next is the system introduction of New Glass C100, The system of the New Glass C100 is developed based on Android 4.2.2. Although the New Glass C100 is dual core, its system has been specially customized, which is more simple and intuitive in the form of cards. In terms of fluency, it tends to be very smooth. Only occasionally, it will pause for half a second, and then it will be smooth again, Anyway, I'm basically satisfied with the fluency.

The following figure is the functional interface of the New Glass C100. In fact, I'm looking forward to trying the navigation function of the New Glass C100, but I went to upgrade the system as soon as I got it. Then I found that the navigation function disappeared after upgrading to the latest firmware I hope the next firmware will return!

The artificial intelligence of New Glass C100 is very good. The speech recognition rate is very high, and it only needs one question and one answer. There is no need for additional gesture operations. This really likes a~ (≥ ▽≤)/~.

More settings I believe you can understand it at a glance. Don't I have to explain more?!

Click on the system version interface of New Glass C100 to enter the following cards. The following figure (upper left corner) is the native Android system interface. This interface is currently inoperable, and we can only look at it. In addition, the system has enabled the debugging function by default. It is worth mentioning that the New Glass C100 supports real-time voice command operations (screenshot in the upper right corner of the figure below). This function is amazing, and the recognition rate is still quite high!

With regard to the 800w pixel camera of the New Glass C100, I think it is necessary to make some optimization. First, the texture of the 800w pixel is not at the same level as that of the iPhone 5s. In addition, I took about 40 photos, and one third of them were overexposed. This problem has been reported to the official staff. I believe that the firmware update will improve.

Finally, let's talk about the video recording function that we care about. There is a special shooting button on the New Glass C100. A short press is to take a picture, and a long press is to take a video. It is worth mentioning that the shooting function has a recording length of only 10 seconds by default, and there is no time limit for shooting when you slide your finger back on the touch pad during the 10 seconds. In fact, there is a quick shooting trick here, that is, just call out "camera", and the New Glass C100 can automatically record video! The camera of the New Glass C100 has an auto focus function, so I'm satisfied with the clarity of the video. Let's show you a short clip.






Summary: From the current experience, There are still many problems to be solved in the New Glass C100, such as the design of the clip, the adjustment of the collar is too small, the Bluetooth connected mobile phone cannot push messages and calls, the Bluetooth connected headset cannot make sound, the default 10 s limit of the length of recorded video cannot be customized, the camera pixel is not high enough and there are a lot of overexposed photos However, I think these problems of the New Glass C100 are basically system problems, which will definitely be solved after the firmware update in the future. So the New Glass C100 is still on the way of "revolution is about to succeed". Once these problems are solved, it will have the power to compete with other smart glasses. Finally, there is a question: if the New Glass C100 only provides users with the most basic functions of calling, photographing, video recording and navigation, it is a big question whether it will really make users pay. After all, these functions are the most basic functions on smart phones, so I hope the manufacturer can release some practical or interesting apps as soon as possible, Continue to tap the potential of New Glass C100 and maximize the value of New Glass C100. I believe this day will come sooner or later! At present, the apps I most expect are: music player, video player, WeChat QQ、 Navigation and e-book, come on, New Glass C100, I am optimistic about you!
