Rokid Launches Two Smart Glasses and a Gesture Ring

The company split its product line between a monochrome, text-focused pair and a color model that adds low-footprint controls for hands-free interaction.

Overview

  • Rokid unveiled the products at its Rokid Jungle event on October 27, 2026, announcing Glasses 2 as a utility-focused, monochrome device and Rokid Color as a full-color option for richer visuals.
  • Glasses 2 uses a green Micro-LED waveguide with a 25° field of view, 480×380 resolution and a claimed 1,500 nits of brightness, runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon AR1+ with a BES2800BP coprocessor, includes a 12MP camera and a 263mAh battery, and opened China preorders at CNY 3,699 with shipping set for November 11, 2026.
  • Rokid Color is reported to use a full-color Micro-LED engine with a 25° field of view, about 500×380 resolution and up to 1,000 nits, and combines temple touch controls with a touch-sensitive Rokid Ring and reported eye-tracking support; it is priced from CNY 4,999 with a target delivery of April 2027 and plans for an overseas showing at CES 2027.
  • Rokid Ring is sold separately in China for CNY 1,699 and offers touch and gesture inputs plus wellness sensors for heart rate, blood oxygen, temperature, and sleep tracking, providing an option for low-footprint control without wristbands or larger controllers.
  • Coverage stresses that claimed specs do not replace independent tests, leaving open questions about real-world image quality, camera low-light performance, battery life, sensor accuracy and firm global pricing or ship dates beyond China.
