It’s always great to hear from experts who enjoy our 3D Glasses, and as 3DTVwatcher is part of the high profile digital and television comparison website, Simplifydigital.co.uk, it’s very important to hear what they think.
“When we at 3DTVwatcher first got our hands on Polaroid’s 1 VIP N8103A model, we were smitten with the quality,” said Edita Lozovska.
“Watching a 3D movie or not, one can see absolutely everything smoothly through the lens, something that not all 3D glasses makers can boast about. It just stands out from all the rest.”
They also commented about the great lightweight materials used and the variety of styles, including kid’s designs. You can read more of the review on their website, and view Polaroid’s 3D Glasses collection online. They can make great Christmas presents for the film lovers in your family, so as 3DTVwatcher say, “take this opportunity to ask Santa for a few pairs of Polaroid 3D glasses!”

After successfully re-locating to East London, I’m focussing on my new Spring/Summer 2012 collection. My new location means I can draw on inspiration from the trendy art and design galleries, and I’m closer to my fabric suppliers.
The concept and research for my collection have now been completed and I’ll begin fabric sourcing in the next couple of weeks. The designing process is currently underway and this collection will undoubtedly be Seroge’s strongest yet. I’m looking forward to the launch!
I’m also considering creating a gown for women attending gala events and tweed will be making an appearance at some point in the collection as well.
My name is Mark Wharton and I’m a club coach working at the Culford Sports and Tennis Centre. I’ve been playing tennis for 40 years and have never found a pair of sunglasses that work for me. Have you noticed that practically no tennis professionals wear sunglasses? Andre Agassi famously had sponsorship from a different brand, but I can’t remember him wearing sunnies when he won Wimbledon.
For me, any sports glasses need to avoid my “must not” list. That is, they MUST NOT
Be uncomfortable, irritating or a nuisance in any way
Be heavy
Steam up
Let light in from the sides/top/bottom
Interfere with my vision in any way – particularly when the frame intrudes in the periphery
and, most importantly, they must not introduce any optical defects/wobbles/spots, etc.
So you can see why I struggle to find glasses that work for me!
This morning I tried out the Polaroid Streak P7963B during a normal individual tennis lesson. Perfect morning for the test: bright, sunny, cold (no steaming up, remember) with a low sun and wet astro-turf for lots of glare. Going through the warm-up with my pupil I was aware of the glasses and then gradually I forgot about them (1 point – not irritating). After the warm-up I had to take the glasses off to remove my sweater and then I noticed how much glare there was from the wet astros (1 point – reducing glare off the court surface).
During the rest of the lesson, I hardly ever had to fiddle with the glasses to reposition them and they only steamed up a tiny bit and that went pretty quickly ( minus half a point for steaming up briefly, plus 1 for not having to reposition them every 2 minutes). At the end of the lesson playing points is the biggest test of tennis glasses – serving. When you serve you have to look almost vertically upwards. This is a perfect time for most glasses to slip, or the frames to intrude on your vision.
The Streaks were fine. I was aware of them, but I could see the ball was in the centre of the lenses as I looked up and very little light sneaked in from the edges (plus 2 points, no interference, no light sneaking in).
So, all-in-all a very successful test, 4.5 points out of 5. Crystal clear optically with just the right amount of tint. I’d definitely wear them for coaching again. Read more…
The crew from PlanetSolar, the world’s largest solar powered boat, stopped off in Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour as part of their 18 month journey around the world on their mission to promote renewable energy.
