MemberI’ve been looking at the LumaGlasses for a while now, mostly for travel and walking around town. One thing I keep wondering about is how they perform outside when it’s really sunny. Like, does the open-ear audio still work okay if there’s wind or traffic noise? Also, are the lenses dark enough to wear as sunglasses, or is it more of a clear lens situation? I know they have UV protection and anti blue-light, but I’m not sure if that means they’re tinted or not.

Tom CallMemberMine work fine in bright sun, audio is still clear enough for calls and navigation. Lenses are clear though, not tinted like sunglasses.

L_ParkerMemberI’ve worn mine on a few really bright days and didn’t have trouble hearing calls or podcasts over wind. Sound quality drops a bit in heavy traffic but still usable. The lenses are definitely clear, not tinted, so you’ll still need proper sunglasses for glare. I don’t mind it much since I usually clip them onto my actual shades.

Chris WritesMemberI’ve used mine on a few sunny days and honestly the audio holds up better than I expected, even with some wind noise. The lenses are definitely clear though, not tinted, so they won’t replace sunglasses. I’d probably just throw on a regular pair of shades underneath if it’s really bright. Not a dealbreaker for me but something to keep in mind.

LiamWParticipantThe lenses are clear, not tinted, so they won’t work as sunglasses. For the audio, I’d probably just keep the volume up a bit if it’s windy.

Mike RunnerMemberThey’re clear lenses, not sunglasses, so don’t expect them to double as shades. Audio holds up fine in normal wind, traffic noise will drown it out a bit but that’s just physics. Kind of a non-issue unless you’re expecting magic.

techguy22ParticipantHonestly I barely notice the wind unless it’s really gusty, traffic is hit or miss. And yeah the lenses are clear, not tinted.

HanSoloParticipantLenses are clear, so don’t count on them for sunglasses. Audio holds up fine for me in most outdoor situations, wind isn’t a big deal unless it’s really strong. Traffic noise will mess with it more than wind. I’d probably just grab a cheap pair of regular shades if I needed both.

MemberI keep going back and forth on these. The clear lens thing is kind of a bummer for sunny days, but I guess you can just wear them under normal sunglasses or swap them out. Curious if the audio is clear enough for walking through a busy market or if you end up missing half of what’s being said.

MemberI’ve had mine out in pretty bright sun a few times and honestly the audio was fine. The lenses are clear though, so they’re not replacing my sunglasses.

MemberThey’re clear lenses, so no they won’t work as sunglasses, but I don’t really see that as a huge deal. Audio holds up fine in most normal outdoor conditions, wind doesn’t bother it much unless it’s really strong. I’d just bring regular sunglasses and wear them underneath if it’s that bright out.

MemberI just wear mine with sunglasses underneath on really bright days, which looks a bit silly but works fine. Audio cuts through city noise alright for me as long as it’s not a construction zone or anything.

LauTopMemberI think they’re clear lenses, so yeah, not great as sunglasses. Audio seems fine in normal sun, but I haven’t tested it in heavy wind or traffic.

Tom W98MemberClear lenses, so yeah, not sunglasses. I just wear mine under a pair of sunglasses if it’s really bright, looks stupid but it works. Audio has been fine for me even in some wind, I think people overthink it.
Honestly the whole sunlight thing feels like a non-issue unless you were expecting them to do double duty as shades.

Owen21MemberI think the lenses are clear, so they won’t double as sunglasses. Audio seems alright in normal sun, but wind would probably mess with it.

MemberThe lenses are clear, so you’ll still need sunglasses. The audio cuts through wind fine for me, but traffic noise will drown it out if you’re near a busy road. Not a dealbreaker if you’re just walking around town, though.
20 de June de 2026 at 05:42 #3449Lopeza
MemberI think people overestimate how much wind and traffic mess with these. I’ve used mine on a few busy streets and it’s been fine.
20 de June de 2026 at 09:01 #3464Sara Williams
MemberThanks everyone for the input, that pretty much clears it up for me. Sounds like I’ll just need to keep my normal sunglasses handy and not worry too much about the audio unless I’m standing next to a busy road. Appreciate the help!

MemberI have a pair and I wear them a lot when I’m out running errands or just walking around. The lenses are definitely clear, so I always keep my regular sunglasses in my bag for the really bright days. I’ve worn them on some pretty windy days near the water and the audio holds up better than I expected. The traffic thing is a bit different, if you’re standing right next to a busy road you’ll hear it, but I don’t think any open ear audio is going to beat that. For normal walking around town with the usual city noise, I can still hear my music and podcasts fine. I’ve had mine for a few months now and the sound quality has been consistent for me.

Jamal PorterModeratorKate 87 makes a good point about the wind versus traffic split — that matches what I'd expect from open-ear audio, since wind hits the mics and speakers differently than steady road noise does. One thing I'd add for Sara's walking-around-town use: when you bump the volume to fight city noise, the sound leaks out more, so on a crowded street people nearby may hear your call or podcast. I'd keep the volume moderate and just accept a bit of traffic bleed rather than crank it. For travel and casual errands that tradeoff seems fine, but I wouldn't count on it in a loud market or next to construction.
