I grew up with and still use windows computers. I do have apple mobile devices because they were the first to become accessible and switching 14 years of stuff to android wouldn’t likely be easy. I adore my iPad though as it allows me to still be able to do art on my good vision days. I I have been curious about all the different android phones though. My current iPhone is 6 years old and will probably lose support next year. Still a good phone though.

One thing I have a question about this device is do you have to be connected to Wi-Fi all the time for these features to work? I am a new student at Cal State Long Beach and I feel like this device would help me out a lot with campus navigation, but that is the one thing I am concerned about moving forward is if this is not a Wi-Fi Connected device at all times then I’d be really happy to purchase one, but if it is then I might have to have second thoughts. Any replies from anybody would be much appreciated.

This seems like 10 years old technology rather than. Cutting edge. The iPhone IOS and some free apps will do all of this better and faster.

6 hi Sam, I was wondering if you have a video on how to turn on audio description on a Samsung TV

What are gps devices or apps for navigating airports

I know assistive aids are expensive because there aren't many of us out there, but that price is dumb. What happened to the philosophy of the KNFB reader?

Oh come on! It is $2195. That is more than ANY iphone with Google maps and voice over.

Uh, how much is this thing? You didn't mention that. I can guess, but it wasn't mentioned.

Wait, if it is a navigation aid "Street with no name". "street with no name". How is that helpful???? It has GPS right????

Oh, "keep spinning the box until the camera finds it". that is dumb, you look even more clueless than usual.

How are you supposed to find the bar code if you can't see it????

Hey!!! How do you know you are even pointing that thing in the right direction? Or are you supposed to just walk around with that thing held out in front of you, and trying to hear it over all the other news. You are supposed to "Hunt" and "peck" with that camera thing until it finds something. Once again, it seems like a bunch of sighted people designed this thing, thinking blind people will take the time to use this thing in specific environments. Can you imagine trying to use this thing in a crowded city, or in store while people are also trying to shop around you? Will our society wait for you to get out your gizmo and wave it around? I have people asking me all the time if I need help picking out creamer in the dairy section, and I am not waving a weird device out in front of me. Thank you for the video.

What about crosswalk that are not marked?

I just purchased the stellar track three days ago and am still getting used to it. Your video was helpful in reconfirming some of the information I already had. I have used my solar trek a little bit and the navigation is quite good. It’s unfair with Vista and the Oko app, each one has its advantages and disadvantages, but overall the stellar trek is best because it isn’t using all the battery up on cell phone and it is standalone so you don’t need to worry about connecting to Wi-Fi all the time once you have downloaded the maps you need so I’m still learning the device and I think the navigation is slightly more accurate than with the victory reader stream or victor reader track rather it gets you within maybe 20 to 30 feet where is the victory reader trek would basically get you within 45 or 50 feet and it’s a lot more responsive to acquiring satellites very quick And very few dropouts overall I’m quite pleased with the stellar trek and I’m looking forward to the new applications. They might have available for it so all all good job. Thanks again for all your good videos. 19:01

Sam, do you know if when using the barcode reader if it will give you cooking instructions as part of the information given to you?

Thank you Sam for your thorough and great review of the StellarTrek!

Can you use this with ear buds?

as for the crosswalker helperr is that all it does just show you were to cross ok you know were to cross now how do you know it is safe to cross

Pretty cool device! Just curious, how does it receive information? Cell service? Wi-Fi? Or is everything on board information?

I know this is an older video, not sure if anyone will see this, but I have a question. I have been looking for an easy way to label files, and this would work. I use iPhone now, but have a few older Android phones. I cannot find this feature on any of them. What version of Android were you using here? I don't see it on 14. I have 10 and 11 on two older phones, still don't see it.

Thumbs down does not work on Samsung Android

Thank you for your help. I am losing my sight and have not been able to read for a few years. Books or music. This gives me hope.

I am blind and I'm trying to adjust the settings for narrator but narrator doesn't read the settings when I use the arrow keys. I am fully blind, I cannot use the pointer to navigate through the settings. How can I get the narrator to read the settings when I use the arrow keys to navigate though them?

The problem I have is that most of these devices require the camera to be to close to my circuit for me to solder on !

I have a brand new one for sale for $250

There should be no airport security, it’s not right.

You don’t need an indicator, ask for help. Like any other person would do. There are plenty of folks who use reading glasses, and don’t use canes. And they need help reading signs too. They don’t need to know why you need help.

If you can’t read the signs, then that’s not a good reason to use a cane.

Don’t use a cane.

SO COOL! I always wanted to have a drone that I could film, but it was difficult because of my poor eyesight I hope I can buy it in Iran

windows needs to improve narrator, but nvda/jaws work well on it.

Yes! I love having a CCTV setup on a standing desk. It makes it easier to read things quickly.

HEY SAM! Please do a video comparing this Omni tip to the new Ambutech Pathfinder 360° 2-Inch ball that rolls in any direction.

I thought the quality on the headphones was so much better, definitely making me consider trying out headphones again.

Thank you so much, this was really helpful!

dubble tap home to lock magnifier

was hoping this was an adjustable aim zoom man

You can get used basic iPad for $300 and have 10000% better experience and functionality using the magnifier feature. The only added accessory you would need is a cheap $25 stand to position the iPad. This item is over-priced junk!

Subscribed! Amazing video! My mother is losing her sight, and I have tons of questions. Should i go to reddit? Is there a better place?

Does VR glasses work for you?

Thank you for the video. My uncle just got this phone, it is so far the best phone for him. He is blind and unfortunately he doesn’t have hands so it’s hard for him to use other phones. I am trying to figure out own to disable the voice over the messages received. He doesn’t want the voice to read the messages out loud, but he will have someone read them to him. Is there an option to remove the voice just for that? I am having a hard time figuring out. Thank you

I enjoyed your review so much, I bought one during prime Days. Thank you

Thank you for the great review

Wow!!!!! So So Amazing!!!!!!!!!!! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

I love this. Ty❤. I may need to buy one.

Not being able to move the image once it's zoomed in is a big negative for me. I need to zoom and use my finger to scroll.
