Ant Esports Gamei Gaming Glasses - Another Gimmick or a Game Changer!
If you are an avid gamer or associated with the field then you probably might've heard of a relatively new Gaming accessory on the horizon called Gaming Glasses! As gimmicky as they may sound, gaming glasses are the new thing and they actually do a lot more than just becoming yet another useless gaming accessory cluttering your table.
Gaming glasses work on the basis of filtering out blue light which all the screens emit and can not only tire down your eyes over prolonged exposure be it during gaming, watching movies or simply by working at office. Blue light is also the cause of insomnia so if you game a lot or simply game after a long day at the office then gaming glasses can solve quite a lot of your problems related to eyes aswell as sleep.
Ant Esports a dominant name in the Indian gaming market thanks to it plethora of gaming specific peripherals and components recently launched their Gamei Gaming Glasses and boy they look much better in person than in those photographs! Coming in a universal fit these glasses are priced in at s 2,000 on their official website and promise to filter out 85% of blue light which is a tall claim to make hence setting my expectations quite high over here. A big shout out to them for sending over a sample to me for review so without any further delay lets dive in and see what these have to offer.
Packaging and Contents
The Ant Esports Gamei Gaming Glasses come in a minimalist yet attractive cardboard box which is laced in the yellow and black color scheme.
The box is made of hard cardboard with branding logos and enough details for the potential customers. Slid out the inner casing and you find the actual glasses carry box along with other accessories like the lens cleaning cloth. The box is nifty and can be easily carried around and is soft and protective inside to avoid any scratches or bumps from hampering with your priced possession.
A Closer Look!
Ant Esports Gamei Gaming Glasses comes in one single, unisex, rectangular lens frame design with a single color option, Yellow! The frame is acrylic, with an integrated bridge for the nose, and slightly springy metal hinges.
Besides white, painted-on Ant Esports logos on the sides, nothing about these glasses screams “gamer;” they simply look like modest, fashionably chunky glasses you might wear anywhere. The lack of any other frame choices is a bit disappointing, though, considering the wealth of options in shapes and materials they could've gone with but since they are the first to do this in India, treading safely in this water is something that I can't blame them for either.
On the side you'll find stripes of red accents which is not paint but rubber inserts instead which give them a more premium finish and also impart a nice grip too in-case you plan to use them outside as why not! The textured insert is found on the inner side of the frame too near the ear rest which is good for those who'll take them out for probably biking, trekking etc.
Let's put them to Test!
So I used the Ant Esports Gamei Gaming Glasses for a couple of days straight putting them through a range of activities which included wearing them at office to gaming with them on or simply taking a walk in the park!
How is it for Gaming?
While gaming the glasses did work as they said, I'm not saying anything abut the 85% filtration here but the glasses do comfort the eyes especially if you game in low light. You might think that because these have a yellow filter, they make games look weird. Well, this filter helps the colors pop far more than they usually would.
This is especially good in fast-paced games where color is used to distinguish teammates from enemies. And it’s not just blue light that these glasses reduce – they also take care of a good deal of blur and glare.
Did you say Outdoor use?
Even though these are not intended to be used as an outdoor pair of shades or something to be used during a sport I did use them for my outdoor walks, bike rides and even running on the treadmill and honestly these held on quite well.
The textured rubber inserts work as intended on keeping a decent grip around the head and don't let these fall off even when running. Thanks to the yellow tint the streets at night are starkly visible and can be a boon to someone who rides motorcycles and hates those high beam lights from oncoming traffic hitting their eyes on the highways.
Over all the Gamei Gaming Glasses perform as intended and are not only great for gaming but also for outdoor usage alike. I did find that they tend to chaff the skin a bit behind the ear where they grip the skull but that is probably cuz I have really short hair so if you are like me then be aware of that otherwise the glasses have no issues in terms of performance or fit.
My Verdict
Ant Esports Gamei Gaming Glasses is a simple, comfortable, well-built pair of glasses. The lenses are clear, the frames are light and sturdy, and the tint cuts a good balance between reducing blue light and keeping colors accurate. The lack of options beyond a single, fairly plain faux-tortoiseshell style acrylic frame and only one color option is disappointing. The comfort level is high but for people with short hair the minor discomfort around the back of the ears over prolonged usage can be an issue so keep that in mind before making your purchase.
If you regularly marathon games, play professionally, or game after working on a computer all day or are simply on a look out for an all rounder pair of glasses that look funky and function as intended then these Gamei glasses from Ant Esports are a worthy pick.
