        I wish you could post GIFs.

        The one of Ryan Reynolds saying "But why?" would just about fit this story. . . .

                maybe this will solve the issue regarding UFO, mysterious beast, Ghost sightings where the camera is either not ready or has the worst graphics.

                  Big fail.
                  I mean they are not exactly ray bans like.
                  I think I'd push someone in front of traffic if I seen them wearing these.
                  Oooooooooppppssss. Booooom

                      I think it's smart that they went with sunglasses instead of prescription lenses like Google's version. It forces people to record in the day when the view is nice and bright - better videos that way.

                            Doesn't it seem a bit strange to you that it contains exclusively only girls in the video?
                            The message "only the privileged can use this".

                                      I now have the iPhone 5C, it's laggy but usable.
                                      My main phone, Xperia Z5 works just fine for about 5 minutes, then it becomes very slow, when using the camera over 5 minutes, it'll lag really badly.

                                      Asked my friends using: Galaxy S4/S5/S6/E, Huawei P9L, Note 3/4, Xperia Z3/C/Z5, Motorola Moto E (2nd)/G (1st, 2nd) - they're all having the same issues, not only me. Snappy isn't optimised well.

                                      Instagram stories on the other hand is a basic copy of Snapchat, and I've never experienced any lag whatsoever.
