Meta clearly has more competition than ever in the world of smart glasses, and that field of competitors is not thinner. The most recent company to join the smart glasses is Chinese XiaomiWho has just released a pair of frames, which, if I am completely honest here, shame Ray-Ban’s glasses to Meta-Almenu on paper.
The first thing I noticed about Xiaomi’s AI glasses, which costs around the same price as Ray Ban’s glasses of meta At $ 280, is that it does something I wanted long ago as owner of Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses. According to XiaomiIts AI glasses can be used for mobile payments with a combination of the Camera and Alipay of glasses, Alibaba’s popular mobile payment system. From what I can collect from Xiaomi’s press materials, the glasses can scan a QR code and then use the onboard voice assistant as a confirmation that you actually want to pay for an item. On the surface, it seems you could end up accidentally walking things around, but with a few setbacks – voice activation and checking – I don’t think that should be a problem. I don’t have the full details of how the feature works, so fingers went through Xiaomi thought this one – if it did, then it could be incredibly convenient.
Next is something I also thought many times as I wore the glasses Ray-Ban of Meta, especially when I want to carry them internally-electrochrome lenses. To put that phrase in the terms of a layman, that means the ability to electrically change, whether the lenses are shaded or transparent. Certainly, Ray-Ban-intelligent glasses can be purchased with transitional lenses installed, but to be able to switch between shaded and transparent manually are awesome, especially if you can adjust the level depending on your point of view or preference.
And the benefits don’t stop there. If the latter bit is true-I have my doubts that it is-ever-intelligent glasses of Xiaomi sincerely blow the radiant glasses of meta from the water. According to Xiaomi’s literature, the AI glasses have an absurd 45 minutes of continuous video recording. That would be impressive, not just for a couple of smart glasses, but for iPhone 16 because Even, who tends to become quite cursed while recording videos over extended times. Meta’s Ray-Bans, by the way, can record a maximum of three minutes of video in one sitting, which was recently upgraded from the original maximum recording of 90 seconds.
In addition to these three things, Xiaomi’s glasses match Meta’s Radio baths in almost every way and even push the envelope into a few more. There is a 12-megapixel camera, vocal assistant on board, and a five-micro table to use its vocal assistant and take calls-all three of these things match the Ray-Bans punk of Meta for Punch. In the battery department, Xiaomi’s glasses are reportedly rolling the ball forward a big time. While Meta’s glasses are estimated only to four hours of battery, Xiaomi says that its glasses can take 8.6 hours with a single load. Again, this is some important claim, so I approach that sample with some skepticism, but if it is true, it makes Meta look senseless. Oh, Xiaomi also says that the glasses are capable of first -person video calls and are also living. Sure. Why not?
I have my doubts about Xiaomi’s AI glasses, don’t cheat on me, but if they really do what the company says they do, they could easily (on paper, at least) be the best smart glasses out there. They do not split the code With increased display On the lens or something similar, but they are supposed to double the battery life, increase the continuous recording time with glasses of 15x meta, and include more beautiful assets such as the ability to perform mobile payments or manually transfer the lenses into or from shadow mode. Even if these things are overall, I start thinking that Meta must really perform the game here, because Xiaomi’s smart glasses are now the only ones I want.
