The Kepma B1 Dreadnought and B1 Grand Auditorium feature an all-solid construction: HTT (High Temperature Torrefied) AA+ solid Sitka Spruce for the top and solid Indian Rosewood for the back and the sides. Each top is custom tapered and patiently hand tap tuned" (*) for perfect frequency response and tonal balance. What makes the B1 incredibly toneful is the combination of tonewoods and a re-engineered top bracing system that provides stability while enhancing the projection of the instrument. Rosewood is an incredibly delicate tonewood to work with in solid form and is prone to premature cracking, splitting and deformation in "guitar" thicknesses. However, the Kepma Wood Process ensures that the finished product is perfect. This guitar comes alive in your hands and you feel its character throughout your entire body as you play it. It's bright where it needs to be, and gives you an amazingly detailed low end and slightly darker undertones you won't find in any other guitar. Articulation is extremely important and the B1 delivers with amazing precision and clarity. It projects with perfect balance - something every player wants but few guitars deliver. Every B1 is meticulously crafted with the highest degree of precision to yield one of the finest playing guitars in the world. In addition, it is set up using the PLEK(TM) Fretboard dress &nut system. Latest innovation and state-of-the art technology in guitar manufacturing, PLEK is an entire process that helps achieve the optimum playability of each instrument: with the help of a computerized machine which scans the whole fretboard (all the work performed on an instrument is done under simulated string tension to reproduce exact playing conditions), it files and cuts the frets accordingly, resulting in precise intonation and buzz free playing right out of the box! Once it passes the final hand inspection test, the B1 is settled in the vibration room for 14 days (that's 336 hours: "playing equivalent" of just over 1 year). This process settles the instrument and provides a warm rich tone and stable performance. In fact, the favored balance, resonance and tonal range of vintage guitars come from hundreds of hours of actual playing time. Kepma's custom designed simulators vibrate the instrument at a prescribed range of frequencies to bring out the tone of the guitars natural wood. The acoustic-electric B1E Dreadnought and B1E Grand Auditorium models are equipped with the Award-winning LR Baggs Anthem Stage Pro Preamp, which received the Player's Choice Award by Acoustic Guitar magazine. Coming standard with a TKL Custom Deluxe ABS case, the Kepma B1 is simply... perfect. Every Time. (*) Hand "Tap" Tuning Each top is hand "tap" tuned to measure the overall balance and frequency response of the top. If the frequency profile is not precisely "matched" to the desired profile, then the top is put back into the tapering CNC for additional refinement until the response perfectly matches the desired response profile of the instrument.

She loves them!!
Color: Matte Black, Clear Lenses, Size: Standard
Bought these for my daughter that is a content creator.. she does cooking and food reviews.. She absolutely loves these glasses!!!! They aloud her to free up her hands and not have to worry about holding her phone or using a tripod as much.. the video and picture quality is great.. I've heard her both listen to music and talk on the phone with them. They also look great on her. She is going to add her prescription lenses to them.. These meta gen 2 glasses are pricey ($322 plus tax on sale).. But if you creat content even at the regular price its a no brainer..

I use them daily
Color: Matte Black, Transitions Grey Lenses, Size: Standard
Enjoying arguing with the Meta AI, which is often wrong until you point it toward a current source of info.
Bought them for the headphones, which, like the Xreal AR Glasses. Have an open air implementation that allows hearing stuff around you but playing music others don't hear. And the sound while having little bass, is quite good.
The 3k hand free photo and video camera is a bonus, but only shoots in vertical, a stupid idea. But meant to push Instagram and Tic-Tic use.
In 3k you can blow things up to 16x9 and have ok results.
It also answers calls and will do as much as you connect it to.
You get the phone audio over the glasses for calls, playing YouTube videos or anything your phone plays, whether an app the AI uses or not.
I have Amazon Music and Audible attached so I can voice command them while driving, but Serious radio and YouTube music are fine, but you have to start them manually. The skip to next song glasses commands work on these apps too.
Overall a very entertaining device.

Actually honest review
Style: Convertible | Touch, Style: Convertible | Touch
I personally wanted it just for the work. I wasn't in the need of a laptop, that's why I bought a chromebook.
1. Packing is awesome (ASUS as always good), nice box with handle, inside of it the chromebook itself and 45W USB-C charger + some papers.
2. Setting up was fast, since I have an Android, but with the iPhone works the same, just scan the QR code and it'll download all it needs. 5 minutes and you're ready.
3. It's 2-in-1 with touchscreen, so you can just flip the screen and voila, now you have a tablet. Touchscreen is good
4. [UPDATED] Average battery life 7-8 hrs while working \\\ Battery life, one of the main things I bought it. It's really up to 11 hrs though it says it varies. But if you're gonna use it just for work as me, it's going up to 14 hrs. (you can see on my photo)
5. You can download Steam and theoretically even play some games on it, but I don't think it can run much
6. Weight, if it's really matter to you. It's 3.6 lbs, but I don't really care about it
7. It's pretty fast, sometimes might be a little bit slow, but it's already an hour I'm using it right now and there's no glitches or anything else at all. I think you just need to give it some time to "heat up"
8. Full functionality of a chromebook, I don't even know what to tell you here
9. Price is kinda high, me personally bought it because of the touchscreen, but if you really need just a tool for work, buy either a simple version of this chromebook or Google Pixel Go which is much cheaper.
But if you want a good 2-in-1, buy it. I don't have any cracks on it, the delivery was good and fast and the chromebook book itself made awesome. I already have a gaming laptop from ASUS and these guys know how to do it!
It's a nice device for it's price. I'm gonna use it for a while and then make the updates.
