Hardware Review – Assassin’s Creed Mirage Edition Intercept Glasses By GUNNAR Optiks

The Assassin’s Creed Mirage Edition Intercept glasses are an outstanding addition to GUNNAR Optiks‘ collection of gaming eyewear. They are designed not only to improve your gaming experience with the Assassin’s Creed Mirage game, but also offer numerous advantages that can enhance your performance in different activities. These glasses are a wise investment for anyone who spends extended periods of time in front of screens.

The Assassin’s Creed Mirage Edition glasses have the same structure as the standard GUNNAR Intercept model. However, they are distinct with their black and orange frames that feature the Assassin’s Creed logo. They also come with a specially designed soft case and a custom-printed box. If you like larger and more substantial frames, then you’ll appreciate the unique style of these glasses. They are not your regular reading or prescription eyewear, so you won’t mistake them for anything else.

Comfort is another crucial aspect of these glasses. They strike a balance between the bulkier Riot and Torpedo frames, providing broader coverage without obstructing your peripheral vision. Even during extended wear, these glasses remain comfortable, with no issues of slippage or discomfort. If you’ve ever experienced the discomfort of tight-fitting eyewear, you’ll appreciate the comfort that the Assassin’s Creed Mirage Special Edition Gunnar Intercept Glasses provide.

One notable feature of these glasses is their sturdiness. The chunky frames feel solid, the side pieces are durable, and the hinges offer just the right amount of resistance. Additionally, the easily accessible screws make it simple to adjust the fit to your liking. The collapsible protective case provides a safe way to throw these glasses into a travel backpack or laptop case, without arriving at your destination concerned that your glasses have broken in half. 

One of the standout benefits of these glasses is their ability to block blue light effectively. The lenses in these glasses have a Blue Light rating of 65, offering a high level of protection against the potentially harmful effects of blue light exposure. This is particularly valuable for anyone who spends long hours in front of screens, as it can reduce eye strain and potentially improve sleep quality by blocking out disruptive blue light.

The special edition glasses come with the hard case, soft case, and cleaning cloth. Owl feather not included.

The Gunnar Intercept Glasses, featuring the Assassin’s Creed Mirage Special Edition, are available for $84.99 USD. They are priced slightly above the entry-level Cruz frames and similarly to the Torpedo glasses. It’s important to note that the reviewed glasses don’t come with prescription lenses. However, Gunnar offers the option to have them fitted with prescription lenses, which makes them a versatile choice for a wide range of users.

The Assassin’s Creed Mirage Edition Intercept glasses not only add a touch of gaming style to your eyewear but also provide comfort, durability, and exceptional blue-light-blocking capabilities. They are suitable for various screen-related activities beyond gaming, making them an excellent choice for anyone seeking to enhance their visual experience and reduce the potential adverse effects of blue light exposure. Whether you’re playing games or working on your screen, these glasses offer an added layer of protection and style.

The reviewer, who normally wears contact lenses and a different pair of blue light blocking glasses by GUNNAR for office tasks, primarily conducted this review while going about his regular daily tasks involving computer and mobile device screens.
