Hello Sam! excellent review as always! Thank you for in depth information with all the pros and cons included.

[ktayna.]

thank you for the excellent review! Yet, it's very sad and disheartening to know there are so many great things out there that could make legally blind folks' lives so much easier, but they're just impossible for many (for me, certainly) to afford :/

Hello Sam. I Have been subscribed to your channel for a while now and I love what you do for the VIP community, being part of it myself. I have been using eSight since 2016 and with every version that comes out, I immediately watch your review on it! I was in the webinar you did with eSight about a month ago and enjoyed it! I currently have eSight 3 and as much as I love that version, I can't wait to upgrade to eSight 4. I have been waiting for them to do wireless for a while now and even suggested it to them many times as I learned to use eSight 2 and then eSight 3 during my college career the past 4 years. I'm hoping to get these soon! at latest next year due to everything going on. Thanks for the review and continue Staying Safe! --- Jesse

Well done review! I have used the esight 3 and now use the esight 4 and your critique covers the product well. You could also mention that wearing it for an extended period of time, the visor gets very warm. I have been an esight user since 2019. You need to give it a break to allow your head, forehead to cool down. The batter life is limited to a little over 2 hours. I have had to purchase additional batteries to make it through my 6 hour day. Batteries have to be charged every night for use the next day. It is helpful for ARMD when magnification is 10x 0r ab0ve. even thought it doesn't eliminate the blind spots in the middle of the vision. I am able to figure out what should be in the blind spot most of the time.

Thank you for sharing this. It looks like they've improved it and are getting better with each upgrade!! Lack of "image stabilization, " this was a major issue I ran into when I tested an early model.

[conniedavis]

Thanks so much for this information. I currently wear an eSight 3. The cord is my only dislike on that, but considered trying the 4. Love your videos!!!

[ger]

This is a very valuable video❤😅 what is the US$ price?

[AshOnAnything]

You are an awesome YouTube creator and I’m really honoured to know you

[douglasstewart]

I rarely ever post anything....for anything. But my father directed me to your channel as I have RP. I very much appreciate what you are doing and your review/candor is very helpful. Keep up the good work.

[TheBadhabi]

Thanks for sharing And excellence review. What is the cost for the complete sets. Do they deliver to countries outside the USA.

[peterfasteng]

Great video! Could you please explain the difference between the esight and iris vision? Thanks😀

Looks like a big improvement in design. The thing that bugged the hell out of me as time went on with the eSight 3 was the remote being wired to the device just because of the components that were housed in the remote and that it wasn’t that good when it comes to build quality as far as durability is concerned and that can certainly become an issue when you’ve got a wire involved. Multiple reasons why an accident might happen, and if that thing drops, it doesn’t seem to take much to mess it up. They design it with some mobility in mind, throw in some cheap accessories that are supposed to help with that but I would recommend finding alternatives to. So yeah, glad they went wireless. Though I’m concerned hearing your critique in regards to some of the bugginess there because I definitely saw that in version 3. I can empathize with those writing the software for it as I’m a computer science major and the things I have yet to learn can feel daunting at times when I think about it, but people are spending quite a bit here, they have a right to expect a smoother experience.

Thanks for the Review. After watching it, I have been trying to contact the company for the last three weeks to set up a demo for my father in law. But I have not been able to contact them at all or get a phone call back or e mail. Do you know if I have to go through a distributor or how does this work? We're in Texas and I have not been able to figure out who to contact or how. Any information to direct me to the right place will be appreciated. Thanks!

[kimberlyfetterman]

Sam thank you so much for your honesty. I was thinking this is a miracle. I have LHON which is loss of central vision. I’m glad that you gave us the review at the end because I don’t think that they would work for my vision either. Maybe one day companies
Will work on glasses that will help for people who have peripheral vision more than they have central vision. Thanks again

[JuanAlcazar]

Great in-depth review Sam. It’s pretty impressive as to how many features it has. Bummer about it not having image stabilization though.

[aliciafranco]

I'm totally sold!!!! THX SAM AND ADAM FROM E SIGHT☆☆☆☆☆

[stievodevivo]

Cool product but i have usher syndrome and i wish there is a device that give me more wider vision field and also night vision built in .... i have only 10grade vision field. And as a kid i never have good vision at night because full night blindness... so wider vision field and night vision these 2 are mine top features wish list.... thank you

[joannecummings]

Very informative video this is my 1st time to your YouTube. I am a type 1 diabetic 59 yrs having visual problems driving. I am diagnosed with diabetic Retinopathy. My low vision doctor is not very helpful I have decided to look elsewhere at new technology. What would you suggest.

[aaroncrosby]

WtF? Im interested in the workings of it. I like to know if it works or not.

[the_blind_gamer_tanis]

Hi Sam, I've been subscribed to you for a while. Unfortunately, I found you shortly after purchasing esight3. I have the same condition and rely on my peripheral vision mostly. I've found my esight to be much more situational than I thought it would be going into it. The esight 4 looks like it improves so many things that I fell made my esight a struggle to use. That being said the upgrade is real pricey so I was wondering what your favorite wearable device is? I've never tried a VR style device but I have tried a gaming VR set and it was way better because it cut the light out of my peripheral. Thanks for your content appreciate it.
