While you may not be able to tell by looking at it, the Looxcie 2 Wearable Camcorder is actually a video recorder that fits over your ear and lets you record anything you see, share video clips with friends, and even doubles as a Bluetooth headset -- meanwhile weighing less than an ounce, and measuring 3 inches long. In fact, its petite size is what sets it apart from its counterpart, the original Looxcie. It features the same battery capacity, video capture and sharing capabilities, but weighs about 20 percent less and is almost half the size of this original model.
You wear this unique camcorder over your ear to record video of everything you see, letting you capture and share life as you see it in full 480p video at 30 fps. Then, you can instantly email clips or post them to Facebook, YouTube, or Twitter. Designed for seamless pairing with an iPhone or compatible Android phone, the Looxcie 2 is compatible with three mobile apps -- LooxcieCam, Looxcie Moments and LooxcieLive. These make it possible for you to record video and upload it to your phone or computer, as well as share short clips via social media sites and email when you're on the go.
You can capture up to five hours of video and create and save hundreds of instant clips from this video to the internal flash storage. Since the Looxcie 2 doubles as a Bluetooth headset, that's one less device you have to carry around in your bag. When you answer calls while capturing video, the unit automatically mutes the audio on the video to keep your calls private. Additional features include interchangeable earbuds, flexible positioning options for your right or left side, active noise cancellation and talk time of up to 10 hours.
- Video Recording
- The Looxcie 2 is always on, continuously videoing - there's no record button. When you experience something you want to share, just click the Instant Clip button to save a clip of the last thirty seconds. Looxcie also records as a standard camcorder in full-motion, 480p when paired with the LooxcieCam mobile app or when used as a standalone device
- Comfortable Fit
- Adjust the Looxcie 2 to see what you see. No more grappling with video cameras while everyone else is having fun. Wear Looxcie and free yourself to be in the moment. Simply position the bendable earloop over your ear and adjust the camera so it points where you look. Adjusting the fit for comfort is easy, and Looxcie includes features to keep it stable and level while you video
- Smartphone Viewfinder
- Use your smartphone as the Looxcie viewfinder to make sure that your Looxcie 2 is level and pointing where you look. Once Looxcie is lined up with your sight, put your smartphone away and join the action
- Left and Right Wearable
- Wear the Looxcie 2 on your left or right ear -- your choice. Just move the 180° rotating earpiece to switch from ear to ear
- Interchangeable Earbuds
- The Looxcie 2 comes with 4 hypoallergenic earbuds. The supple earbuds are optimized for comfort and stability
- Bendable Earloop
- Looxcie knows every head is different. That's why they made the earloop on Looxcie of bendable material that you can easily conform to fit your ear perfectly
- Roll Adjustment
- Twist the camcorder boom with easy roll adjustment to keep the landscape level as you record
- Continuous Videoing
- Looxcie via the LooxcieMoments app does away with the record button. Simply turn it on to video your life. Looxcie captures up to five hours of video and allows you to create and save hundreds of instant clips from this video to the internal flash storage. When the five hours of video fills up, Looxcie purges the oldest video - the stuff you don't want anyway
- Instant Clips
- It's impossible to predict when something memorable will happen. But everyone knows when once it happens. We call these Looxcie moments: those unexpected events you want to capture and share right away. With one click, Looxcie lets you rewind time and save instant clips of your life
- Visible Video On Light
- When you turn on Looxcie, the video-on light on the front of the camcorder illuminates red. It'll be obvious to others that you're videoing
- Share
- With the LooxcieMoments app, send clips of special moments as they happen - and give friends and family an instant glimpse into your life. Let them see what you see, be where you are
- Auto-Share
- Before you go to an event or participate in an activity, you can set up Auto-Share recipients using the LooxcieMoments App on your smartphone. Then you can share your experiences on the fly with the press of a button - the Looxcie 2 automatically sends a thirty-second video clip to your recipients in real time. You can stay in the action with Looxcie
- Social Video Multiple Ways
- Email clips to your friends or post clips to Facebook, YouTube, or Twitter. Share your experiences, your way
- Smartphone Remote Control
- Use the LooxcieMoments App on your smartphone to control the Looxcie 2. View all stored video and clips, and create new clips of any length. Send clips via email or post online to popular social media sites. Access all your edited and instant clips easily
- View Video
- View video you are capturing via the viewfinder built into the app. You won't have to guess where the Looxcie 2 is pointing
- Edit Video
- Want to send clips longer than the instant 30 second clips? No problem. Edit clips of any length by choosing a start and end point. It's simple to search through all recorded video to find footage you want to share
- Universal Connectivity
- Connect to any computer's USB port and Looxcie automatically appears as a storage drive. Simply drag-and-drop all your saved clips to your computer's desktop for storing, archiving or viewing. And because Looxcie clips are encoded in an MPEG4 format, they are ready for emailing or viewing with your favorite media player
- Talk
- The Looxcie 2 is more than a wearable camcorder - it's a complete Bluetooth headset with digital signal processing
- Active Noise Cancellation
- The Looxcie 2 cancels ambient noise so people can hear you clearly, no matter where you are. It optimizes sound for video while you're videoing and for calls while you're on a call

The product as such is very nice but the way you are supposed to attach it to your ear is worst I have ever seen. It is strange as bluetooth earpieces are on the markets for years. The guys who created the product just did a lousy job with ear piece. Because of that it is
- UNCOMFORTABLE to wear;
- you CAN NOT attach it firmly to your ear/head and this result in poor image, actually this makes it USELESS for the purpose they advertise it.
Would HIGHLY DISCOURAGE PURCHASING of the item till they fix the way it is attached to your ear.

Comments about Looxcie 2 5-Hour Wearable Camcorder:
great little device. I use it mostly for work purposes. Havn't even used the bluetooth phone function. It is a bit bulky if you compare it to a bluetooth. But for pure function, it's great. The i-phone app works perfect and is simple to use.
Have had to call customer support and they were extremely helpful and NICE and spoke English...that in it's self is huge bonus!

The kit comes with two earloops to hold the Looxcie over your ear. They are made of plastic and easily break at their weakest point. Both my loops broke after I placed the Looxcie in my shoulder bag. I looked for replacements ... NONE AVAILABLE ANYWHERE !!! Now, I have a stick-camera that can no longer "fit over my ear" ...

Comments about Looxcie 2 5-Hour Wearable Camcorder:
The Looxcie Camcorder is a wonderful innovative product that impresses everyone I've shared it with. It produces great videos. It has especially come in handy as I'm playing with my young niece - being able to capture those special moments while still having both hands to interact with her. The video quality is surprisingly good for such a small device. The playback is a bit delayed a times but it's because of the frames per second settings. The most exciting feature is Looxcie's iOS app that allows my iPhone and iPad to act as the viewfinder. I found this feature to be wonderful!

Comments about Looxcie 2 5-Hour Wearable Camcorder:
Attaches to my ears a lot better than the LX1. I love the black color and it is also lighter than the LX1. I use it to record my 2 kids (10 months and 2.5 years old). I do not want to miss those nice and unexpected moments when they happen.
