I wore Snap’s $2,200 smart glasses

EDITOR BRIEF

The Verge tested Snap’s new AR glasses, highlighting a shared dominoes demo where two wearers interacted with the same virtual objects on a real table. The experience felt more social and natural than typical VR or smart glasses demos, though the hardware remains expensive and experimental.

INSIGHTS

Snap is betting that shared augmented reality can differentiate its glasses from VR headsets and phone-based AR. The high price and limited maturity suggest this is still a developer and early-adopter product, but the social use case points to where consumer AR may eventually gain traction.
