aigo iSonic MP3 Glasses

Good sound
Sturdy build
Lens flip looks funny
Prolonged use may cause headaches
Earphones are irreplaceable



You cannot replace the earphones, but the existing ones (that when left dangling looks like sidelocks) are good. The bass is quite effective and there's not a lot of treble response. Just the way I like it.


It comes with precious few buttons, because you have to use them while the glasses are on. Each button has a dual function, and these are easy to remember. The pair we got comes in 512MB, although you can also get these glasses in 1GB capacity as well.


I tried these glasses on ten different people, and only one managed to carry them off with aplomb. The rest, including me, looked like nincompoops. That's the problem with such accessories; you can choose them only if they suit you. For biking purposes, I think they will work just fine though.

The aigo iSonic MP3 sunglasses cost Rs 6,000. This is quite steep, considering they are rather uncomfortable and can give you a headache in a few minutes. If you are an outdoorsy kind of a guy it makes some sense, otherwise imagine sitting at your desk in office wearing these!

Moreover, consider this: if the earphone breaks or retires, you'll have to throw the whole kit away. And much as I hate to say this, you'll have to resign yourself to using them as regular sunglasses.

I have used the 1gig pair of these for over a year almost daily and never ever had a headache.

The battery charges well and the sound quality is more than satisfactory. Only minuses are the cable that connects to the PC is one of a kind which means if you lose it your stuck and the center nose supports are flimsy--must be careful not to break.

Everything else rocks and i love the fact that i have a thumb drive and a mp3player all in one. Worth the price IMHO.

I had thought of this idea a few years ago when i used to travel in bus...in the crapped places where there is good chance that someone might steel your player without you even knowing it.

The Mp3 player must be separate from the glasses and must have the ability to stick to any spectacles. Thats much better than having such huge gogles on all the time...I would prefer it while I work in front of my system. Usually thats when I wear my glasses and I cant listen to music at work.
