REKKIE Reviews

I recently had the opportunity to compare the previous generation Rekkie gray lens with the new Spekter lens. The Spekter lens was a significant improvement from the previous version. I didn't expect to see much of a difference based on the website description. Removing the transition line (HUD) in addition to other improvements made a huge difference in terms of visibility. Morning temperature in the 20 degree F range to afternoon in the 50s; no issues with fogging or frosting. Low light visibi...

This is my second season with the Rekkie Smart Snow Goggles; using it professionally as a ski patroller as well as skiing with family and friends. The Rekkie app offers a portal to connect with team members, friends, and family; even those that aren't using the Rekkie goggles. The Smart Goggles show distance and direction to other members in the same group; allowing status/location updates without picking up the radio or phone. A quick click on the large button removes all of the HUD (Head's Up ...

Picked up 4 of these for a guys ski week in Vail. These things are awesome to have with a group. In many cases we'd go into separate groups and when we wanted to meet up, it was simple the plot an "intercept" to the other groups. It also gives great situational awareness on the others when you have people starting out at different times of the day (some of us may have been more hungover:). The tracker also shows what trail you are on and does a brilliant job tracking stats for the day. My only b...

They are great!! I love them, it’s nice having the time up in the corner so I don’t have to look at my phone or watch, the mph is on point and it’s nice having a built in compass. I look forward to exploring the possibilities of what else I can do with these goggles. Only downside may be the battery life in the extreme cold. I used them for the first time when it was at tops 15 degrees and the battery burnt up fast. It lasted a good 3 hours. But probably wouldn’t have gone 4. But all in all, I’m...

These goggles are awesome! The goggles themselves are high quality and didn't fog at all on a warm day. The menu navigation, button interface, and phone notifications are very slick. Having the time and ability to switch between low and high clutter mode is great. I initially had some concerns about some of the lighting and ghost reflections looking at them indoors, but they looked much better outside as indicated when I called to discuss, and the auto brightness worked very well. On that note t...

I got these goggles just before all the warm air melted all the snow, but so far these things are AWESOME. It’s not just the idea of a holographic display that makes me love them, but the build quality is just beautiful. They look nice, feel nice, and haven’t fogged once since I’ve worn them for the past couple days. Even though it’s hard to see in direct sunlight (pretty uncommon for the winter seasons), I love seeing the temperature, time, and speed right in front me without needing to fumble ...

I used the Rekkie goggles for the first time in Park City a few weeks ago. I. LOVED. THEM! I dont see how I could ever go back to "regular" goggles after this. Even just being able to check the time without taking your gloves off is a huge value-add. I care less about speed/elevation, but it was so great being able to start and stop music without having to take out my phone. But even more valuable is the ability to check your texts without taking your gloves off, and the ability to see the...

The goggles have been great! I spent two full days on the mountain this past weekend and the battery life was great, the features worked flawlessly, and all of my friends were jealous and wanted a pair of Rekkie goggles. I have been in contact with customer support a few times and they respond same day and have resolved any small issues/questions I have had to my satisfaction. I actually even spoke with the creator and he filled me in on what is to come and I am beyond excited for the updates, ...

1st day using this new purchase. Riding at Mammoth mountain. Although I'm an Android user I borrowed an Iphone to experience the full capabilities. Let me say they are very comfortable, the battery life is outstanding, not having to pull my phone out, made today so much smoother. Make sure your settings are set for liking. My only request is if a feature could be added for emergency. I ride alone often and through trees, having a feature that could alert or assist in locating would prove b...

I am having so much fun using these goggles. I'm not a fantastic skier, I've only been doing it three years, and each time I go out I try to set some personal bests. The goggles help me look with each run. Side note, they also are just plain awesome goggles, very easy to see, they don't fog up, etc. Like even if they didn't have all the tech they're great goggles. I also added some friends via the app and that's been awesome as I can easily catch up with them if they get ahead. 10/10 would buy a...

So excited to use my goggles! Where I ski it has TERRIBLE visibility so I am also excited that the goggle for a low light lens swap is available. These are super easy to set up and use—now just need to set up my boyfriends so that we can use together and track on the app! I ski with a speaker for music and it is also so nice having the control from the goggles to play/pause/etc rather than fumbling around on the speaker with big clunky gloves. What an amazing idea for creating this for a Market ...
