HD Vision Visor Review
If you’ve seen a commercial for HD Vision Visor in 2016 and feel that it looks familiar, you are correct, as this product has been advertising on television for over two years. I first evaluated HD Vision Visor back in mid-2014 (review here) and decided to take another look at this As Seen on TV visor now that commercials for the product have hit the airwaves once again.
The design is relatively simple: You clip the unit to your existing visor and flip down one of two panels to reduce glare. There are two tinted panels, one for daytime use and one for nighttime driving. The daytime visor is considerably darker than the amber-tinted nighttime panel.
To use HD Vision Visor, you flip down the first panel for daytime use. To use at night, you’ll flip the daytime panel forward and out of the way, while flipping the nighttime panel down.
For daytime use, HD Vision Visor does offer some glare relief, similar to wearing a pair of tinted sunglasses. There is, however, a gap between this unit and your existing visor, so there may be times of day that the sun peeks through this gap.
For nighttime glare, there is also a slight glare reduction, although it does not appear that this product is polarized, which is the industry standard for glare reduction. It is simply an amber-tinted piece of plastic.
There are other tinted visors out there, such as Easy View XT, which functions very similarly.
Overall, I feel that HD Vision Visor provides a modest amount of glare reduction for both the day and night panels. It probably isn’t superior to simply wearing amber-tinted sunglasses, and is not likely better than polarized lenses. There are other products on the market like this, which you may also want to consider. Even with its modest $10-$15 price tag, it doesn’t seem to me that two tinted pieces of plastic shouldn’t be in this price range. (Of course $35 for a plastic cell phone cover shouldn’t cost that much, either, but that’s a different topic altogether.)
Look for it locally to sidestep shipping costs and delays.
