Eazeye 2, Return of the Sun

The Tests Are Conclusive

There’s no question the Eazeye 2 is a vast improvement from the original in both the technology, a screen without any backlight, and in the overall design.  It is amazing in the outdoors,  a traditional laptop or mobile phone screen gets washed while the Eazeye 2 only performs better and better, the only thing close it it in the sun are eInk displays.  That uniqueness certainly does make the Eazeye 2 an interesting product.  If you spend time in the great outdoors unwillingly and would rather watch a movie while sitting on the beach than watch the waves roll in, there simply isn’t a solution other than this RLCD.  It could also come in handy for novice campers that should really follow along with a video of someone setting up camp rather than attempt it on their own.   They can even enjoy some gaming if the tent is pitched before dark.

The ability to take any USB-C video input could be very useful for photographers and videographers, either amateur or professional.  Instead of having to squint at the tiny LCD on their camera or trying to make do by placing an external monitor under a hood, an Eazeye 2 could sit out in the sun and provide a much better look at the subject matter than any alternative.  For someone that makes their living in that industry, the $1,535.00 Canadian isn’t as much of a pain point as it would be for others.

The technology is fascinating and certainly unique; there is no way to make something like the Eazeye inexpensively and being somewhat of a niche product doesn’t help at all either.  It’s hard not to love the idea or the execution of the Eazeye 2, but that love certainly comes at a cost.
