Snap this week presented new features for its $2,200 Specs glasses, which received poor reception when launched earlier this year.
The new updates include streaming from HBO Max and Spotify, an AI system called Specs Intelligence designed to understand users' goals and routines, and an enterprise program where IT technicians can repair hardware with the glasses' help. Snap also announced a connectivity package with cellular service via Verizon for $10–20 per month, and partnerships with companies including Amazon, Salesforce, and Nvidia.
When Snap debuted its long-awaited smart glasses, Specs, earlier this year, the reveal was not only underwhelming but also a genuine disaster.
