Smart glasses sound great on paper. You get a massive virtual screen inside your bag that offers you a big-screen experience without actually having to carry one. But this comes at the cost of getting a rather heavy piece of wearable tech sitting on your face for the entire duration of the movie. Virture, however, is tackling this issue with its next-gen smart glasses.

The Viture Pro 2 is its lightest display glasses to date. The new model weighs 63 grams and costs $299, while its frame is 16% thinner and 20% lighter than the original Viture Pro. It has also made a bunch of refinements to the design to make longer sessions easier on your face.

The screens are brighter and easier on your eyes

The Pro 2 introduces what Viture calls UltraClarity 3.0. Its Sony-made micro-OLED displays can reach a claimed 1,600 nits, while a smoother field-curvature design is intended to produce a more natural-looking virtual screen and reduce eye strain. Gamma tuning also promises more accurate colors.

Individual diopter controls cover a range from 0 to minus 5.00D for each eye. Viture states that some nearsighted users may therefore be able to skip separate prescription inserts, but the adjustment will not cover every prescription or eyesight condition.

The field of view has increased from 46 degrees to 50 degrees. Resolution stays at 1920 x 1080 per eye, with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz. So on paper, the Pro 2 gets a relatively modest display upgrade, with the main focus being comfort and an improved fit.

There is still a cable hanging from your glasses

These are display glasses rather than self-contained AI eyewear. Their birdbath optical system creates a bulkier frame than waveguide-based alternatives, and a wired USB-C connection. Viture is also launching a $99 Mobile Dock Mini. At roughly 250 grams, it is 34% smaller and 30% lighter than the previous dock and contains a 10,000mAh battery.

It supports the Nintendo Switch 2 and includes a detachable magnetic adapter that can serve as a standalone hub for connecting the console to a television or monitor. The Viture Pro 2 and Mobile Dock Mini are available now for $299 and $99, respectively. Buying both through Viture’s fifth-anniversary bundle lowers the combined price to $378. This model also joins the brand’s Beast XR glasses, that offers an even larger display over your eye.

Datamaxxing is the latest AI trend and for once, it could be healthy for your health goals
Feeding fitness data to AI can turn unexplained health metrics into useful conversations, but trusting it as a doctor is another matter

Datamaxxing sounds like the sort of wellness trend that would involve a spreadsheet, three supplements, and far too much free time. The basic idea is much more sensible. People are feeding data from their wearables into AI chatbots and asking them to explain what all those numbers actually mean. The Wall Street Journal recently documented several people building systems around exactly that idea.

There’s a genuine gap for AI to fill here. A 2026 Nature Communications study found that wearables are good at producing summaries, but much less useful when people want personalized answers about their own data. An AI agent built by the researchers reached 84% accuracy on objective numerical questions.

Smart glasses aren't exactly an affordable piece of tech. They usually cost hundreds of dollars to put a computer on your face. Rogbid, on the other hand, is just asking for $69.99 and is somehow throwing in a 39-day battery claim in the deal.

The new Rogbid VisionW are a pair of AI smart glasses built around Bluetooth audio, voice assistants, and interchangeable frame designs. Rogbid calls them a “3-in-1” product and shows three different styles, ranging from chunky dark Wayfarer-style frames to a slimmer half-rim design with clear lenses.

Meta's smart glasses have run into a place where hands-free cameras are not particularly welcome: the courtroom.

According to a report by The Guardian, courts across England and Wales are banning Meta's smart glasses from entering judicial buildings, with the HM Courts & Tribunals Service (HMCTS) confirming that anyone arriving with the glasses will have them confiscated and returned when they leave. The decision comes amid growing concerns that smart glasses could be used to secretly record court proceedings.
