Editorial summaries
Rokid Glasses
Rokid Glasses are lightweight (49g) AI and AR glasses with a dual-eye Micro-LED display, 12MP camera, and a voice AI assistant that routes to GPT and Gemini, plus fast real-time translation across 89 online and 6 offline languages. They are about $599 internationally (2,499 RMB in China); a non-display, audio-only AI Glasses Style also exists at $299.
Rokid has delivered more than 200,000 display units (about 50,000 overseas), making it one of China's strongest verified-commercial AI wearables and the genuine-AI counterpart to Meta Ray-Ban's Western dominance.
Vuzix Z100
The Vuzix Z100 is an enterprise-focused monochrome-waveguide HUD smart-glasses device (38g, up to 48-hour battery), generally available since November 2024 at $499, aimed at warehouse, logistics, and field-service use with some consumer features (notifications, navigation, teleprompter) via the Vuzix Connect app. It has no native AI; any AI comes through partner integrations, placing it at the partner-mediated end of the AI-substance spectrum. Vuzix has been shrinking and pivoting toward OEM waveguide components; the Z100 is its current HUD product (the older Blade line is discontinued).
