About Spectacles 3

Spectacles 3 feature dual HD cameras, designed to capture depth and dimension the way your eyes do. Sleekly crafted from lightweight stainless steel, Spectacles 3 come in two colors:

Also included:

Both colors come with a matching Charging Case, which allows you to recharge Spectacles on the go. The  leather case holds four Spectacles charges at a time, and folds flat when not in use — making it easier to store while you’re out and about. Keep in mind that placing Spectacles in their Charging Case is the only way to recharge Spectacles.

Immerse yourself in a memory (or step into someone else’s) with the included 3D Viewer.

The included USB-C Charging Cable can quick charge the Charging Case up to 50% in just 15 minutes — or 75 minutes for a full charge.
