The built-in 263 mAh battery provides up to 8.6 hours of use, nearly double that of most competitors. But these aren't just smart glasses, they're a full-fledged AI-powered companion, giving users features like object recognition, real-time text translation, calorie counting, daily information lookups, and even meeting tools like automatic transcription, smart summaries, and interpretation in 10 languages, including English, Japanese, German, and Spanish. It can even scan a QR code to make payments just by looking at it, along with a voice command of course (this feature is probably only available in China at launch). The Xiaomi AI Glasses also pair seamlessly with Xiaomi smartphones for dual-camera functionality. They charge via USB-C and even support plug-in livestreaming. Priced from RMB 1,999, the AI Glasses are now available through Mi Home, the Xiaomi Auto App, and other official channels. In the wearables department, the Xiaomi Watch S4, Smart Band 10 and OpenWear Stereo Pro were also launched, along with Redmi K80 and K Pad as well as various IoT products such as air-conditioners, a hair dryer, vacuum and robot vacuum.
