Are these Meta glasses even AR? AFAIK they are just regular glasses/sunglasses with a camera, mic, and headphones in them so you can listen to music, record video, and use voice controls with your smartphone. There's no display.
Ok, I see. I thought the backlash is about all smartglasses in general, including AR glasses.
