Offering improved style, comfort and performance, the range of Active 3D Glasses from Big Brown Box is the best way to fully immerse yourself in the 3D experience.

It's important when buying these as an accessory, that you get the right glasses compatible for your 3D TV.

Firstly, you should know if you need "Active" or "Passive" glasses - we stock both.

The "Active" variety of 3D glasses incorporate a battery operated mechanism and are brand specific. These are also called "Active Shutter" glasses, referring to the way they block light to the left and right eye in a rapid alternating sequence - in sync with the images played by the 3D TV intended for the left or right eye only. Commonly thought of as delivering the best 3D images, check out our selection to discover sleek, lightweight and rechargeable options.

The "Passive" variety are so-called because they don't include any active components - these are the kind you will also wear in a cinema. Simply put, a 3D TV designed for passive glasses presents two images simultaneously - one intended for the left, the other for the right. The filtered lenses in the glasses ensure each image reaches the right eye.

Our suppliers in this range include leading brands LG, Panasonic, Samsung, Sharp, Sony and Toshiba.
