Search Engine Shades (UPDATED)

The Updated Google Glass Includes a Single Earbud

The updated Google Glass forms were recently posted on the official Google Plus page for the project. Although the capabilities of the augmented reality glasses are nothing short of astonishing, there are many people do not find the glasses to be aesthetically pleasing.

The overall design of the Google Glass remains unchanged with this update, but Google is working to optimize the glasses to work as sunglasses and prescription glasses. As well, a singular removable earbud has been integrated into the design so that users are able to hear crystal-clear audio on the go.

Although there are not many major changes to the Google Glass, this is step forward for those who already wear glasses, but hope to experience Google Glass without any interference or discomfort.
