Xiaomi’s new AI glasses are already giving Ray-Ban Metas a serious beatdown

Xiaomi’s new smart glasses last twice as long as Ray-Ban Meta’s.

With its in-house Super XiaoAI assistant doing the heavy lifting, you get real-time translation on the fly and even the option to pay just by looking, thanks to a built-in camera that plays nice with Alipay (via Road to VR).

For extra flair, you can swap in electrochromic lenses that adapt to light on the fly when you double-tap the temple, after which they shift shades in 0.2 seconds, as per Xiaomi's press release.
