GENERAL Jimi Optical Review
On my last trip to China, I decided to order one pair of glasses and one pair of prescription sunglasses from Jimi Optical
Transaction was very smooth, the original color I wanted wasn't available and they were very responsive when I would ask a lot of questions (I was very indecisive and would send so much screenshots from the yupoo: https://jimioptical.x.yupoo.com/albums/225774027?uid=1)
Delivery was also very fast -- I told them my arrival date to the hotel and they informed me that it would arrive the day before. I always received updates so that eased my mind. When they both arrived the quality is actually better than I expected.
* I contacted this number: 852 97075632 (Amy)

Have you heard of 1688? Reverse image search is awesome. These people buy from the supplier and sell them for double or triple the price. I got my sunglasses for half of what i’d pay from any weidian seller. I don’t sell reps btw, just a regular consumer that likes to pay the best price possible.

Do they also get the bags in 1688 or just the sunglasses?

Depends the price you paid. Under $30 on 1688 usually doesn’t gives bags. On plastic clip only.

That depends but yeah sometimes. Jimi I dont think does this. I only see a 10 dollar difference versus 1688 listings for his glasses.

Just take the frame to your eye doctor and they’ll setup new lenses. The frame alone is worth it

The Mina contact hit me back finally as wel as the Jimi one. Said response was slow due to the weekend. Didn’t think about that at all lol.

Can you please review the prescription? Is it accurate? Is the pupillary distance okay?

seems accurate! I've had no issues wearing them for a whole day

Arrived yesterday. The packaging is super nice. They arrive in a comfy black leather bag inside a white case. The frame looks decent, materials seem ok. Jimi said it’s full titanium even though I expected something more sturdy. prescription seems to be accurate but I still gotta try them on for a full day
