Halliday smart glasses: Ambitious idea, frustrating execution

Halliday smart glasses: Ambitious idea, frustrating execution Halliday’s Wayfarer-style smart glasses, born from a $3.3M Kickstarter campaign with 8,000+ backers, are now moving from crowdbackers to retail. Priced at $499 (early backer price was $399), the glasses bundle a tiny 3.6mm microLED display, a magnetic control ring, on-arm speakers, and a so-called “proactive” AI assistant — but real-world testing reveals several usability problems. The product aims for subtlety: no outward-facing camera, a near-invisible display tucked close to the eye, and a lightweight frame. In practice, reviewers found the hardware to feel plasticky and slightly oversized, the nose pads the only real way to adjust fit, and the temple-mounted USB-C port’s rubber gasket awkward to access. Key concerns raised by hands-on reviews: Tiny display: The 3.6mm microLED projects a monochrome view…
