Editorial summaries
Xiaodu Pro AI Glasses
The Baidu Xiaodu Pro AI Glasses are camera-and-audio AI glasses with no display (explicitly not AR glasses): 39 grams, titanium hinges, a Sony 12-megapixel camera (4K photo, 1440p/30fps video), a four-microphone array, and prescription-lens support, in Boston and Cat-Eye styles. They went on sale in China on November 11, 2025 via JD.com and Tmall at 2,299 yuan, roughly $322, with next-day delivery. The AI is genuine and primary, built on Baidu's ERNIE large language model (first-person 'ask about what you see' Q&A, object and calorie recognition, encyclopedia lookup, audio and visual translation, reminders), and made via Baidu's Xiaodu Technology subsidiary; the assistant runs on ERNIE, not on Xiaomi's XiaoAI. They complete the Chinese consumer wearable-AI cohort alongside Xiaomi AI Glasses and the RayNeo V3. Cap-flag: pricing is China-market CNY (the USD figure is a conversion) and the glasses are not officially sold outside China; the AI is cloud-dependent rather than on-device.
Bee
The Bee Pioneer is available for purchase directly from Bee's website, ships within 1 business day, but currently only within the United States with no international shipping. The Bee Pioneer is priced at $49.99 USD as a one-time purchase, as listed on Bee's official product page.
