Xiaomi has introduced its new wearable, the Xiaomi AI Glasses, in China. Designed for daily use, they feature a stylish frame along with advanced camera, audio, and AI functions powered by a dual-chip setup and Xiaomi’s Vela OS.
Xiaomi AI Glasses
The Xiaomi AI Glasses weigh just 40 grams and feature a classic D-shaped frame made from TR90 nylon. Available in Black, Brown, and Green, the frame includes aerospace-grade titanium alloy hinges, tested for 18,000 open-close cycles.
Designed for Asian facial contours, the temples offer a 12° outward rotation and a 5° forward tilt to ensure a stable, comfortable fit. The device is IP54-rated, providing protection from sweat and water splashes.
The optional electrochromic lenses can adjust to lighting conditions. With a double tap on the temple, the lenses shift shades in 0.2 seconds, offering four levels of tint between 10% and 48% light transmittance.
Key Features
- 12MP ultra-wide Sony IMX681 camera for quick photo capture and first-person video recording
- Snapdragon AR1 + low-power chip for intelligent performance and battery efficiency
- Comes with Xiaomi AI that supports live object recognition, text translation, calorie info, and voice-based help.
- Meeting Assistant with transcription, summaries, and live translation in 10 languages
- Voice control for Xiaomi smart devices
- Supports Alipay contactless payments using glance and voice, with an OTA update planned for September.
The device includes a 263mAh silicon-carbon high-density battery, offering:
- Up to 8.6 hours of regular use
- Up to 21 hours standby while worn
- Approx. 7 hours of continuous music playback
- Offers video recording for sessions of up to 45 minutes.
Charging is via USB Type-C, and the glasses support plug-in livestreaming.
Performance and Interaction
The glasses run on a dual-core architecture: a Snapdragon AR1 processor handles high-load tasks like AI recognition and translation, while a low-power chip supports daily functions like music playback and voice commands. Smart load management keeps performance smooth while saving battery.
Audio is delivered through dual symmetrical speakers designed to minimize leakage using a reverse sound field. A five-microphone array, including a bone-conduction mic near the nose pad, enables clear voice pickup and reduces wind noise — effective even during cycling at 12 m/s.
Software and Ecosystem
The glasses integrate with the Xiaomi HyperOS ecosystem, enabling smartphone pairing for camera switching, livestreaming, and voice calls from a first-person view.
Through the Xiaomi Glasses App, users can manage photos, videos, recordings, translations, and device settings in one place. The app supports custom templates for meetings, interviews, and classroom settings.
