I agree with your post in it's entirety, except for the bit on battery life as I spoke to an engineer using Glass a few weeks ago and 5-6 hours with real world use was the toted number (for a mix of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth use).

I still feel that is very poor though, for Glass to really be useful it should last a long working day, and ideally all of your average waking hours.

It remains a bluetooth headset with integrated display and camera. The phone and some remote servers do the real work.



I got to try Glass last week, and the engineer told me it was close to 15 hours, not 5.


If 5-6 hours is the toted number, the real number is most likely close to 4 hours.


7 hours was the toted number, 5-6 hours was what he said he got in real-world usage.
