Although the speakers may be considered to be bone conduction, they are actually small speakers themselves. In fact, the volume can be turned up loud enough so that others around you can actually hear what you’re listening to, compromising any sense of privacy. I don’t believe the qualities is all that bad given that they are as small as they are and located where they are. Keep in mind that not only do you have voiceover coming through the speakers, since we are using voiceover as visually, impaired or blind users, but we also have the voice output inherent in the Meta, operating system, as well. In fact, you can use both for some of the same function, such as, making calls, sending messages, reading messages, and other functions, given that they are actually using the phone as a lot of their operating system Back up. Also, keep in mind that the glasses were not created for use with people that are blind or visually impaired. It is just a very fortunate consequence for those of us that are blind or vision impaired, that the glasses do so well, and performing task that we need to accomplish, And that they will be able to increase the functionality we needas Meta pays more attention to the fact that they are usable by us. That is what’s happening right now in terms of development. paul8...@gmail.com
