So there is now a version two, so documents leaked from the FCC, the American communication authority. After it was spotted by Variety it became clear that the ‘wearable video camera’ hit a new photo lens, but Snapchat itself does not want to say anything about it at the moment. We do not know how the thing will look like or what exactly you can do with it. It is a version two, there is now support for the faster 802.11ac Wifi and that does not stop there.
More expensive model in the making
According to rumors, two new Spectacles would be in the making: a slightly improved version of the first one (that will be this one) and a much more exciting one with the dual camera and GPS support $ 300 would be sold.
