Pros
Pro Augmented reality ready
The Epson Moverio glasses can scan real world items such as a QR code to bring up relevant information right ontop of the QR code itself. AR (augmented reality) can also be useful for other technological activities - such as flying a compatible drone in first person view, viewing virtual blueprints, or just casually watching Netflix.
Pro Subtle display
The display tech used is OLED, which means that the display will disappear completely when not in use (OLED doesn't need a backlight for black pixels, while a LCD requires the full backlight to be on even when only a small section of the display is required to be on).
Pro Easy control methods
There are 2 ways to control these smart glasses - either through head movements or with a wired controller. While out and about it will be much easier to use the head movements, however at home or when playing games or perhaps web browsing the controller will make for an easier controlling experience.
Cons
Con Stands out
These are clearly smart glasses, and even from a distance it will easily be able to tell. The camera on the right side will mean that you won't be able to wear these glasses everywhere, and in public you'll get more than a few strange looks.
Con Not yet available
These are expected to launch later in 2016.
