Neat concept, very poorly executed. [Posted on 2008-06-09]
This type of thing would be GREAT for long flights, and I bought it in the hope that it could be used for that. Unfortunately, turned out not be true.
1: VERY flimsy build. Little to no metal in it at all. Low odds of surviving too many trips
2: Defective out of the box. One lens didn't work at all, the other lens was totally out of position.
3: As others have comments, volume is so low as to be unusable.
I might have lived with one of these, but together these make it a disaster. This is clearly a good idea poorly executed. They need to design these to be robust, reliable, and price it accordingly. I was hoping for the price that might be true (especially since it's at least their second if not third generation).
As it is, it's a very high priced oddity of little use and I won't ever recommend them.
What a let down. [Posted on 2008-06-18]
I ordered the MyVu with high hopes. To get to watch videos at work all day rather than doing any work what so ever sounded like a great idea to me. Unfortunetly as the other review has stated it just doesnt live up to your expectations. The lens being out of position seems to be standard as my set had the same exact problem. Flimsyness... very. They wiggle about and when you touch them you just have an overwhelming sense of eggshells. I didnt notice anything about the volume myself, worked fine for me. Here's hoping MyVu's return department isnt as bad as the goggles(I ordered from MyVu's website because amazon didnt have the connections I needed at the time) Wish me luck.
