At a glance
Smart glasses are one of the most useful new kinds of AI gadget. Some put an assistant and a camera in a normal-looking frame. Others put a giant virtual screen in front of your eyes.

How we chose
We focused on glasses you can buy and use every day: battery life, comfort, camera quality, how useful the AI assistant is, and whether prescription lenses are available.
What to look for
- Camera or screen? Decide whether you want hands-free photos and an assistant, or a private big screen. Few glasses do both well yet.
- Comfort: you’ll wear them for hours, so weight and fit matter more than specs.
- Privacy: camera glasses show a light when recording. Be considerate in private places.

அடிக்கடி கேட்கப்படும் கேள்விகள்
What's the difference between AI glasses and AR glasses?
AI glasses like Ray-Ban Meta have a camera, speakers and an assistant but no screen. Display glasses like Xreal show a virtual screen but usually have no camera. A few newer models combine both.
Can I get smart glasses with my prescription?
Yes. Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta glasses can be fitted with prescription lenses, and Xreal offers prescription inserts.
