What is Specs?

Specs are augmented reality glasses developed by Snap Inc. that integrate digital experiences with the physical world through see-through lenses. Unlike traditional smartglasses that require phone tethering, Specs operate as a fully standalone wearable computer with dual Snapdragon processors, a 51-degree field of view display equivalent to a 115-inch screen, and advanced hand tracking for natural gesture controls. The device features Swiss TR90 polymer construction, electrochromic lenses that auto-tint, contextual AI assistance, and spatial audio through custom stereo speakers with six MEMS microphones.

Key Features

• Standalone AR Computing

  Fully wireless operation with dual Snapdragon processors—one for computer vision and one for Lenses—eliminating the need for phone tethering or external pucks.

• Immersive See-Through Display

  51-degree field of view waveguide display with 16 million colors, equivalent to viewing a 115-inch cinema screen from 10 feet away, plus electrochromic auto-tinting lenses.

• Contextual Intelligence System

  Built-in AI that understands your surroundings to provide real-time suggestions, translations, measurements, and navigation without requiring manual searches.

• Natural Hand & Voice Controls

  Advanced hand tracking for gesture-based interaction combined with voice recognition for commands, enabling controller-free operation in any environment.
