On Oct 27, Qwen Office announced its integration with Rokid AI glasses. Users can add the agent via the 'Rokid AI' app store, link their accounts, and issue voice commands to execute tasks, with results and progress updates displayed directly on the glasses. The system also supports visual analysis by combining camera feeds with prompts.

Our read: This partnership extends Qwen Office’s interaction from keyboard and mouse to voice and vision, making it highly practical for scenarios like meetings or client visits where hands are occupied. Since the feature is currently locked to the Rokid hardware ecosystem, cross-device flexibility is limited.

Even Realities launched the Even Brown 2 smart glasses, with frames undergoing four manual processes totaling 20 hours. Hardware matches the standard G2 with slightly reduced weight, available in circular and square frame styles.

Our read: The 20-hour hand-finishing process guarantees unique variations in every pair, trading industrial uniformity for artisanal character. At $649, the value proposition shifts toward this premium finish combined with recent software upgrades that finally address the clunky controls of earlier models. While the new gesture and AI monitoring features improve daily usability, the accessory ecosystem remains limited to the newly released clip-ons and necklaces, so existing owners should verify compatibility before upgrading.
