Great 3D glasses.

TDGBT500A 22 July 2017 by MisterSony (USA) Verified Purchaser Verified

Sony bring you closer to the movie that you are watching. You will no longer just watch a movie because with these active 3D glasses you will feel like you are part of the movie.

Poor Design & Expensive

TDG-BT500A 11 October 2015 by ajones02uk (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified

Bought 2 pairs of these glasses Poor design the rubber nose bridge keeps falling off and we have already lost one. Searched but there is no supplier of this spare part so if you lose the nose bridge the only way round it is to purchase another pair of glasses if you don't want to end up with the hard plastic pressing on your nose. They are expensive glasses not to have a spare part supplier. I also found the glasses to be quite dark there is a brightness setting for them in the 3D settings which had little or no effect

I bought these a month ago and have used them 5 times. They work very well and are comfortable to wear over my own glasses I wear.

Overpriced but good technology

TDG-BT500A 11 October 2016 by DB7710 (United Kingdom)

I bought these for the Sony name and because they would be compatible with my Sony 3D TV. The technology cannot be faulted as the 3D imaging is excellent and pairing with the TV is simple. However, they are very expensive when compared to other brands, and when considering the build quality. The arms are very flimsy and twist with barely any pressure so are at risk of snapping, and because they flicker if you have any light bleeding into them (making them headache-inducing) they really need some side blinkers. If you're able to watch a movie in the pitch black then you'll be fine, otherwise I'd suggest fashioning your own side guards, as I did.

Sony TDG-BT500A

TDG-BT500A 26 July 2016 by RHSS (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified

I Brought these 3D glasses as I had changed my projector for Sony VPL VW500ES. I find the glasses easy to use and fit well over my normal glasses. The 3D picture is very good, as plenty of depth.

3D Vision

TDG-BT500A 04 February 2016 by Mark53 (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified

Bought 2 pairs of active 3D glasses to compliment Sony 3D TV bought a few months earlier. The glasses are lightweight and are not uncomfortable to wear and really to give an immersive 3D picture.

Great 3D Bad Design

TDG-BT500A 23 September 2015 by Robert6610 (United Kingdom)

The 3D is great much better than anything other 3D I have seen before including cinema and Imax, also they were very easy to set up, just turn them on and your away really. The problem I have is that the design isn't very good, you get too much reflection and glare from how the lens stick right out. It isn't rechargeable, which I found really disappointing for the price of these glasses, overall good 3D, bad design and you do not get your moneys worth.

A+ if and when they pair

TDGBT500A/US 02 August 2015 by zero3D (USA) Verified Purchaser Verified

I have an 850c and I have the toughest time pairing them, but when the connect they are great!! I followed the instructions to the "T". Maybe I have too much RF interference. The glasses are great "If and when they pair"

Glasses OK - 3D Sony TV not so much

TDGBT500A/US 12 June 2015 by HondoAZ (USA) Verified Purchaser Verified

While the 3D glasses appear to be working OK, the performance of the new 70" Sony 4K television I purchased does such a poor job of producing 3D images, that I would not recommend the combination for anyone looking to have a good 3D movie experience. It is not possible for us to determine if the television or the glasses, or both are the issue with a 3D image that often places backgrounds in front of foreground images, does not convey true depth of image and has substantial image flicker. Check out Consumer Reports review of Sony TVs for confirmation of these comments. To be fair, the television has an excellent picture, better than most I have seen. Buy it for the 2D picture - which is excellent, but wait for Sony to produce a better 3D system before trying out the 3D features.

light and stylish design

TDG-BT500A 04 May 2015 by huutamtran61 (United Kingdom)

I purchased several pairs of Sony's 3D Glasses as I had also bought a Sony 4K 65" T.V. The 3D is stunning as it delivers everything you would expect from a pair of 3D glasses, their light unobtrusive to your face and the view they give makes you believe your actually in the film set.

Great glasses, 1 major let down.

TDG-BT500A 11 March 2015 by Tanniix (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified

These glasses are great for 3d movies (as long as the lights are out, otherwise they are irritating to wear as they flicker against other light sources or light surfaces).However, I bought these glasses as they were simulview compatible and I got the impression from the website that you could play any split screen game on any console in full screen when the 2 players are wearing a pair of these glasses each. This is not the case, simulview is only available on the PS3 at the moment and there are only a short list of games compatible at that. I think the sony website needs to be clearer about this technology to avoid unhappy customers.

Good but expensive

TDG-BT500A 19 December 2014 by Hasher (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified

I have been very impressed with the quality of these glasses, though they are the only ones that work with my TV and are far from cheap (you get what you pay for) as there are no alternatives. I worry as they are worn by my two young daughters and I foresee an accident.
