I'm not a snapchat user but this looks super sexy. Also the landing page, it's marvellous. Kudos to the team!

What's the difference between Spectacles and Google Glass regarding privacy?

@sekodev you know when someone is recording with spectacles (light flashes), google glass you don't

@davisonio from what I see on the video, flashes doesn't seem that significant to rule out privacy issues.

@sekodev What privacy issues are you referring to?

@billchase2 I'm against the idea of people taking pictures / videos with wearables, in this case, glasses. I know you can easily do that with your phone but I'd still like to keep it that way and not add wearables to the mix.

@sekodev IMO Snapchat did a decent job making the camera obvious, especially in the original model. Both the camera and lights have a visible ring around them and the lights move to get your attention when you are recording or snap a photo. I can understand not being the biggest fan of "hidden" cameras on our bodies, but technology is heading that way so at least they're making the camera visible.
What I really want is AR Spectacles so I can perpetually have the dancing hotdog in my field of vision. (But these are still nice improvements over v1.) 🌭
I have the first gen ones, used them for a few things, but otherwise found them to be an overpriced piece of plastic. This is hardly even an upgrade and not worth the attention.
These would be super fun to have on the 545 mile bike ride from SF to LA this June!

It will be great when someone (most likely Apple) realizes the complete vision of this product. I can imagine a world where the glasses are capturing in 8k 180 degree FOV stereo, and it is being streamed over 5G to other glasses in realtime. This is a great step in that direction.
