  1. I’m curious if anybody has replaced a monitor with #arglasses in particular Xreal One Pro for writing code and browsing (and maybe watch movies)


    How about other alternatives?

  2. #Meta plans to add #facialrecognition to its #RayBan #smartglasses as soon as this year. The feature, internally called "#NameTag," would let wearers identify people via Meta's AI assistant. An internal memo noted the "political tumult" in the US was good timing for release, as civil society groups would have "resources focused on other concerns." The feature raises obvious privacy concerns. macrumors.com/2026/02/13/meta- #ARglasses #SmartGlasses #AugmentedReality #AR

  3. In its Q4 2025 earnings briefing, Samsung hinted at innovative AR eyewear designed to provide immersive XR and AI functionalities.

    Additionally, they announced more foldable devices for 2026, which will include new Galaxy Z variants and potential designs such as the TriFold and a rumored "Wide Fold," which aims to compete with Apple's inaugural foldable iPhone.

  8. Woman Hailed as Hero for Smashing Man’s Meta Smart Glasses on Subway

    「 While Meta built in a small LED light in the front of its glasses to indicate when it’s recording a video, it can easily be covered by a small piece of tape, making it trivially easy to spy on strangers in public without their knowledge or consent. As Daily Dot points out, people are even selling stickers for this specific purpose 」

  9. Weekly output: Zoox, FCC on broadband, Trump 2.0 cybersecurity, NextGen Acela WiFi, Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses, Myriam Joire podcast

    This was a big week for wrapping up stories that I had begun reporting out in a previous month–not September, but August. I’m now mostly caught up on those projects and behind on a post I owe from the cable-industry group SCTE’s conference in D.C. last week.

    I also barely managed to avoid falling behind in my commitment to Patreon readers to write two exclusive posts a month: I published September’s second, a look at how some freelance tech journalists cover travel costs to events like IFA and MWC by arranging sponsorships from individual exhibitors, with less than seven hours left in the month.

    9/30/2025: Amazon’s Zoox Launches First Stage of Robotaxi-Service Testing in DC, PCMag

    Spending all of Monday at SCTE’s event meant that I had to finish writing this during the cocktail hour at a press dinner at All-Purpose across the street from the convention center.

    10/1/2025: FCC Tries to Speed Up Broadband Buildouts But Cuts School Wi-Fi Support, PCMag

    I spent much more time talking to Public Knowledge’s telecom-law expert Harold Feld than the brief quotes in this story might suggest–which happens every time I ask Harold if I can borrow some of his extensive insight for a story.

    10/1/2025: U.S. cybersecurity was bad during the first Trump administration. Somehow, it’s getting worse, Fast Company

    I started working on this before Black Hat, got some useful quotes for it during that security conference in Las Vegas, then quizzed a couple of experts in the weeks after, then got seriously sidetracked from being out of town for the first two weeks of September.

    10/2/2025: I Tested the Wi-Fi on Amtrak’s NextGen Acela. Bad News: You No Longer Have an Excuse to Skip Work, PCMag

    Amtrak took much longer than I expected to get back to me on some of the more technical questions I had after my introduction to NextGen Acela at the end of August, and then I realized that I could refresh my reporting and get some comparative data points about WiFi on Amtrak’s older Northeast Regional trains by making a quick trip to Baltimore and back on Monday afternoon.

    10/4/2025: Want to Buy Meta’s Ray-Ban Display Smart Glasses? You May Have to Work For It, PCMag

    My tech-analyst friend Avi Greengart’s LinkedIn post about his unsuccessful attempt to buy a pair of these augmented-reality glasses struck me as newsworthy to reshare on that platform. I also shared it on PCMag’s Slack, and one of my colleagues then suggested there was a post to be written about Meta’s weird retail-distribution strategy.

    10/6/2025: MediaTek Dimensity 9500 in depth, Meta Ray-Ban Display, Xiaomi 17 Pro and Pro Max, Xiaomi 15T series, OnePlus 15 teaser, Realme GT 8 Pro leaks, CMF Headphone Pro, and more with Siegfried Chang and Rob Pegoraro – Mobile Tech Podcast 447, Myriam Joire

    After years of showing up at the same tech events with my friend and fellow avgeek Myriam, I finally showed up on her podcast. Among many other topics we discussed, I particularly appreciated our exchange about the possibile utility of smart glasses; she’s more optimistic about their odds of becoming a consumer-scale gadget than I am, but we agree that Meta is not the ideal company to champion this category.

  10. I’m not sure that the mass market shares the tech industry’s vision for smart glasses

    One recent change among early-adopter circles was plain on the faces of many fellow attendees of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Summit in Maui this week: “smart” glasses with cameras, microphones, speakers and sometimes screens. But then my flights home Friday reminded me that for the overwhelming majority of people, “eyewear” means electronics-free glasses.

    Qualcomm’s invitation-only conference–that company paid my airfare and lodging, as it did on my prior trips to cover it in 2021, 2022 and 2024–allowed me to get some brief face time with Snap’s Spectacles ’24, running newer software than the version I tried at last year’s summit. The event also treated me to a parade of tech execs testifying that smart glasses were the next big computing platform.

    But despite all those optimistic assurances and my own earlier, brief tryouts of such smart glasses as Meta’s camera-enabled Ray-Bans and a prototype set of Android XR glasses, I remain unsold on the entire concept. So, it seems, do most customers: A Forrester Research survey released in September found that 79 percent of respondents had no interest in buying smart glasses.

    On one hand, smart glasses with cameras, speakers and microphones are not particularly cheap–the Ray-Ban-branded models from the conglomerate EssilorLuxottica cost $379 and up–but perform worse than phones at taking pictures and playing audio.

    Plus, they have the potential to annoy friends and strangers who aren’t keen on the possibility of surreptitious photography.

    On the other hand, more advanced smart glasses with built-in displays could finally make hands-free augmented-reality overviews of the world a reality, but first somebody has to bring them to market at a not-crazy price. Snap’s Spectacles, which require a $99/month developer subscription, are not there; Meta’s Ray-Ban Display glasses, available starting Tuesday for $799, aren’t that much closer.

    And somebody also has to solve battery-life concerns: What’s my motivation to strap a computer to my face, however stylish it might get, if that electronic eyewear will only run six hours on a charge and therefore need recharging much more often than my phone?

    Meta championing this cause gives me further cause. That company has shown a history of careless indifference to the consequences of its actions, including repeated episodes of bad-faith behavior towards my own industry, that does not make me want to give it my money.

    But Meta has also been so spectacularly wrong about consumer-electronics trends–topped by Mark Zuckerberg renaming Facebook to “Meta” and losing tens of billions of dollars on the delusional notion that people want to spend prolonged time in virtual-reality environments–that Zuck pushing smart glasses itself seems reason to eye the concept skeptically. Through dumb, software-free glasses.

  16. Hold onto your eyeballs, Amazon is reportedly diving into AR glasses with two projects: 'Jayhawk' for consumers and 'Amelia' for delivery drivers. Imagine shaving *seconds* off your delivery route with AR! I just hope it comes with a 'find my keys' feature for my living room.

  17. Meta will schon jetzt AR Glasses bringen: ARglass.es

    Preisüberraschung 💸 Metas neue #ARGlasses mit #Display soll rund 800 Dollar kosten und liegt damit weit unter den erwarteten 1.400 Dollar.

    Strategie wie bei Quest 🎮 #Meta setzt erneut auf geringe Margen, um sich Marktanteile zu sichern – ähnlich wie beim Erfolg der #Quest-VR-Headsets.

    Zwischenschritt zu AR 👓 Die #Brille bietet ein kleines #Display für Mini-Apps und Benachrichtigungen, ist aber noch keine vollwertige #AR-Lösung. (1/2)

  18. The global #smartglassesmarket experienced significant growth in H1 2025, driven by strong demand for #RayBanMeta Smart Glasses and the entry of new players like #Xiaomi and #TCL-RayNeo. Meta’s share of the market rose to 73%, while #AIsmartglasses accounted for 78% of total shipments. The market is expected to continue growing, with new models from #Meta, #Alibaba, and other players anticipated in H2 2025 and beyond. counterpointresearch.com/en/in #ARglasses #SmartGlasses #AugmentedReality #AR
