Alright, so I got my Google Glass in the mail today.
This is the Explorer’s edition; charcoal color.
So we’re going to see what’s in the box.
It says right here on the inside of the top of the box…you turn it on by pressing the
power button…adjust the nose bridge…and position the display to see the whole screen
clearly.
Along the top of the box, this smoky paper is just glued very gently along the edges.
And here’s the Glass itself.
Initial feeling is that I’m surprised at how light it is.
It is, you know, slightly more heavy along this side, obviously, that is has all the
components.
This piece of crystal right here is actually pretty interesting.
I’ve never noticed in the pictures I’ve seen for it that the diagonal angle inside
of that where the lens reflects the display from this end right here.
Pretty interesting.
This part right here almost feels plastic even though I know they say that it’s metal.
It has a plastic feel to it.
It does flex a little bit here and there.
Apparently you can adjust these just by bending them a little bit.
It says the display should sit just above your field of vision.
Here inside of the box it says this is where the speaker actually connects with your skull.
There’s no speakers on it, just communicates through vibrations.
Got your on/off button and then a touch panel along the side.
And then you have a camera button right here which actually starts and stops the camera;
taking pictures and videos.
So anyway, let’s see what’s in the rest of the box.
It’s also got the same micro USB charging port that most cell phones have nowadays.
I grab this tab and lift up.
“This pouch has been crafted using Japanese microfiber made from recycled materials.
Designed to be both light and durable.
Take this with you to protect your Glass and accessories.”
So this bag right here…so these are the little headphones that it comes with.
I’ll go ahead and just pull this out.
So this is the little ear bud.
Apparently this just sits right inside of your ear.
Then you can roll up or roll down the cord.
Interesting little bag.
It kind of feels like felt along the outside and it’s hard plastic down here at the bottom
to protect the Glass as it sits inside of there I guess.
And here we have a charger for it.
And the data cable to charge it up.
Then right here looks like we have a few more pieces for the nose bridge and a set of instructions.
And that is it.
I plan on messing around with this for the next couple weeks.
I’ll make another video here in about a week or so when I get a feel for how it works.
And eventually I hope to do a tear down on this.
I plan on taking it apart and showing all the internal components and how it’s all
put together.
Anyway, if you have any questions or if you have anything you want me to test out for
you, go ahead and leave those in the comments below and I’ll try to get around to them…as
many as possible.

I plan on putting up quite a few videos in the future.
Along with the Glass itself, it also came with an extra lens for the sunglasses.
This is
that same felt-like material that the other bag is made out of.
Alright you see this little tab on the back, if you put it between the nose bridge and
just kind of twist it up into place; it locks on the lenses to the front of the Glass.
And there you go.
Overall a pretty handy little device.
It will be interesting to see how it all plays out.
Anyway, if you have any questions, leave them in the comments below.
Don’t forget to “like” this video if it was interesting to you, and don’t forget
to subscribe.
Right now, obviously, the price tag of these things is a little bit tall, but we’ll see
if it’s justifiable.
Thanks for watching!
