Frequently asked questions

For photos, audio and quick assistant questions, the current generation is genuinely useful hands-free. If you want a real heads-up display for navigation or subtitles, expect trade-offs in weight, battery life and price. The table shows exactly where each model lands.

By the manufacturers' own figures, the Even Realities G1B (about 1.5 days) and the Brilliant Labs Halo (up to 14 hours) lead. Tethered display glasses such as the Xreal One Pro and Viture Luma Pro have no battery of their own. They run from the device they are plugged into.

Some models let you choose the assistant, and others are locked to the manufacturer's. The "AI models" column lists what each maker supports. Solos and Rokid, for example, offer several assistants, and the RayNeo X3 Pro uses Gemini.

Most frames accept prescription lenses, either from the manufacturer or a third-party lab. Check the maker's options before you buy, since prescription ranges and prices vary by model.

No, not yet. Every figure here is the manufacturer's published specification or list price, checked by hand, and each model page links to its sources. When we test a pair hands-on, its page will say so.

We may earn a commission when you buy through our links, at no extra cost to you. It does not change the data: the table sorts by the published numbers, and no brand pays for placement.
