Even G2: Smart Glasses Get Lighter, Less Invasive
21 Nov
Summary
- Even G2 smart glasses focus on display, eschewing cameras and speakers.
- An optional smart ring, Even R1, aids navigation and health tracking.
- Despite potential, the Even G2 faces bugginess and setup issues.
Even Realities introduces the Even G2, a new generation of smart glasses that deliberately omits cameras and speakers, focusing instead on a dual-lens monochrome green display. This design choice makes them significantly lighter and less invasive than competing devices.
An optional accessory, the Even R1 smart ring, offers navigation control and health tracking features, though its input accuracy requires refinement. The Even G2 supports notifications, translation, and transcription services, but users may encounter occasional bugs and connectivity issues, particularly with Bluetooth.
Despite the hardware's promise and comfortable fit, the Even G2's functionality is hampered by software quirks and setup difficulties. While the concept is intriguing, the current iteration feels like a work in progress, with potential that may require future updates to fully materialize.
