# Even G1

Manufacturer: [Even Realities](/companies/even-realities)  
Category: wearable

## Summary

The Even Realities G1 is minimalist display HUD smart glasses (44g, magnesium/titanium, looking like ordinary eyeglasses) with a monochrome green waveguide display and, deliberately, no camera, speakers, or audio. It does turn-by-turn navigation, teleprompter, real-time translation, notifications, and transcription well; its 'Even AI' is a thin cloud Q&A wrapper (Perplexity/ChatGPT), placing it at the veneer end of the AI-substance spectrum: the glasses are a good display device, the 'AI' is a light add-on. Pricing is $599 base, plus $150 for prescription lenses and $100 for a sun clip; about 1.5-day battery.

## Specs

- **notes**: [{"label":"Verified","value":"Even Realities (founded 2023; HQ Shenzhen + Berlin; CEO Will Wang, ex-Apple Watch engineer; co-founder Tom Ouyang, ex-Apple; team from JMGO; >$10M from China VCs) ships the G1, minimalist display glasses with a discreet green waveguide HUD. Shipping and widely reviewed by mainstream outlets through 2025; a G2 successor is referenced."},{"label":"AI-substance: VENEER (display-first)","value":"This is a display device first, AI second. The substance is the hardware (discreet waveguide HUD, teleprompter, nav, translation); 'Even AI' is effectively a thin Perplexity/ChatGPT text-Q&A wrapper, constrained by the deliberate absence of any camera or microphone-driven multimodal input. Reviewers consistently flag the AI as limited. Honest framing: a HUD-eyewear product with optional cloud AI, not an AI device."},{"label":"Claimed but NOT verified","value":"Any on-device AI (none claimed; all cloud); exact supported-language count (sources vary 13 vs 24, firmware-dependent); real-world translation accuracy beyond reviewer anecdotes; G2 specs/ship status."}]
