GUNNAR Beta Tester Wrap-Up

Tuesday, June 21, 2011

 

It's been almost a month since we started the GUNNAR Optiks Beta Tester Program, which gave the most active Alienware Arena Members a chance to try a pair of GUNNAR Optiks Gaming Eyewear and share their unedited and unbiased thoughts with the community. Overall, the feedback posted for the community to review was overwhelmingly positive.

View all of the GUNNAR Road Show Feedback

What Did the Participants Have to Say?

Participants overwhelming claimed they noticed the following:

The product was comfortable, stylish, and surprisingly durable

The product contributed to an overall decrease in eye-strain and fatigue

The product contributed to an increase in eye "endurance"

Most of the participants said they would recommend the product as seen in the following excerpts:

“These glasses are extremely lightweight, you will barely notice you are even wearing them after you get zoned into gaming or sucked deep into your computer work. They are very enjoyable to wear that I sometimes find myself roaming my house with them still on!”
- vietgamer09 – SteelSeries SCOPE- Carbon/Onyx

“With GUNNARS I can read, game, and stay for long sessions in front if my pc without the consequences of the glare of the screen and the dry eyes"
- el_pitaya – MLG Legend – Olive/Camo 

“I would definitely recommend GUNNAR Optiks to somebody, they do EXACTLY what they say they do; they improve reflexes in gaming, reduce eyestrain, etc… and without doubt they are worth every penny.”
-Sever1ty – Paralex – Lime   

Keep in mind participants were not given any extra incentive to recommend GUNNAR products, nor lie about their experiences. Everything posted in the GUNNAR Optiks Beta Tester Program is directly from the participants themselves, and not censored by GUNNAR or Alienware in any way.

Thank you very much for quoting me. I can't get over how awesome the color of my GUNNARS is. Now after visiting your website to buy 3 pairs for my friends in Europe I've realized that you sell different [url= http://www.gunnars.com/shop/Interchangeable-Socket-Sets.html] socket patterns [/url], specifically the camoflauge. If only you had a black, gray, white digital camoflauge I'd get a few.

Any ideas on how the carbon fiber one looks on PPK's?

@thesp00n, do give them a try, they have them at a ton of Best Buy stores around the USA, and they're running a contest on their facebook page too!

By the way, please visit [url= http://www.alienwarearena.com/forums/topic/4879/gunnar-optiks-beta-tester-program/sever1tys-gunnar-optiks-paralex-lime-product-review/1/] my review [/url] on the forums, I promised to make a video review upon reaching 50 comments. I only have 20 so far.

Anything worth having is worth working hard for.

Glad you enjoy them! The Carbon Fiber socket set is FRESH, it looks great with any style; I'd definitely recommend them to anyone (I personally like that color the most lol).

Thanks for the special offer. I bought a pair off Newegg when they first came out but unfortunately the size was too small for my head. I was already thinking about getting bigger pair and with this offer I think I will.

u should get a new one. having a small one won't be as comfortable as is. besides you can actually exchange your glasses for free so it should be np...i think.
