Overview

• The Rokid Glasses combine a 12MP camera and dual monochrome waveguide displays with a Snapdragon AR1 chipset and ChatGPT-powered assistant.
• Rokid’s Kickstarter lists a $599 MSRP with early-bird tiers from about $499, and the company says shipments are planned for November.
• The company claims a 49 g magnesium‑aluminum frame, up to 1,500‑nit green HUD visuals, and a 210 mAh battery, which await independent testing.
• A Gizmodo hands-on found the teleprompter and real-time translation features worked and appeared sharp, though the small display and swipe controls constrained usability.
• The same demo reported unreliable wake-word performance for American English speakers and noted the companion app is Android-only for now.
