Title: Best invention if you always forget your readers, but always have your phone – which we all do!
Review: I got tired of trying to read a menu and realizing I had to run to the car to get my readers. I have another pair of Thin Optics, which fold flat and are great, but these are so convenient, and always with you – assuming your phone is always with you. They sit perfectly on the nose, and you can’t even feel that they are there. Also great for reading in bed if you happen to lay on your side so your partner doesn’t get disturbed by the blue light from your phone. Great product and value for the money. Highly recommend!

Title: They fixed the nose bridge!!!
Review: UPDATE , SEPT 2019:They fixed the nose bridge!!! New one has not broke in months…YAY 5 stars.FROM 2017:5 stars for concept, 1 star for nose piece breaking for the 3rd time.I can’t stand carrying glasses around with me because I only need them for reading. And so this concept of always having them on my phone is awesome. I am never caught without reading glasses anymore. I started off with another product that had a keychain attachment and a much softer nose piece and frankly looked to be more durable overall, but the keychain thing was too annoying!I started off with the Iphone case with the built in thinoptics holder because I didn’t trust that the sticky tape would adhere to my existing case for the long term. I used that system for several months. But, the thinoptics Iphone case did not protect my phone very well and I kept breaking the tempered glass protector ( not a thinoptics product ) whenever I dropped the phone. So I just went back to my favorite phone case and bought the universal thinoptics case and it is holding up surprisingly well! I am very happy with that set up now. Sticks like glue! They are extremely low profile and add almost nothing to the thickness of my phone, so it easily slips in and out of my back pocket.I would not use these glasses at my desk for work, or for reading a book in bed…No these glasses are just comfortable enough to get you through a restaurant menu or business meeting away from your own desk. In cases when I need glasses, I have them!Now the bad news, I purchased these glasses in July 2017 and already have broken the nose piece 3 times with normal use. Yes they have a lifetime warranty which is very seamless, but I have to pay $5 shipping. Since I bought the phone case AND the universal case , I have 2 pair on hand and so when 1 breaks, I order the warranty replacement for $5 and use the good one from last time.For me the hassle of breakage is worth it to always have my reading glasses on me, but I wish they would improve the nose piece to make it stronger and softer.Fix the nose and this 5 stars easy.

Title: Highly recommended cheap, convenient, disposable glasses. Questionable customer support.
Review: I’ve had these glasses before, liked them, and just purchased a new set to attach to my new cell phone. They allow me to have reading glasses wherever I am without the bother of carrying normal glasses around. Very handy for reading menus or product labels while shopping.They wear out easily. The bridge broke on my first pair, the nose pieces broke on my second pair, just through normal use. Fortunately they are cheap to replace.The instructions say to go to their site and register for “free replacement glasses … forever. (*$5 shipping and handling fee applies).” It also says “takes just ten seconds to complete.”Unfortunately, once at the site, it just says “In order to register your product and activate your Free Lifetime Warranty please contact customer care at support@thinoptics.com. Proof of purchase required.” So I emailed support and got an auto-response saying that “due the high volume of calls and emails we’re currently experiencing, a Customer Care person will get back to you to handle your email/request within 5-7 days business days.” Hardly ten seconds. (Note to thinOPTICS and every other company experiencing high volumes of support requests – hire more support staff!)So buy these expecting cheap, convenient, disposable glasses with very questionable customer support.

Title: Great idea, bad case
Review: It’s a great idea and works well , but the case is too stiff and hard and scratches the lensesIt’s also easy to knock them out accidentallyIf they could fix those things, I think it would be a excellent productWill try a cheaper version of the same thing next time

Review: I have been using these type of reading glasses, and this particular one is also the same great value. It sticks to back of your phone, with an adhesive tape though, and this way I always carry on.Wish they could do MagSafe type version too for iPhones.Doesn’t slip back in the case comfortably, for that I reduced one star in rating.
