The two camera pairs that skip Meta

Most camera AI glasses run Meta's assistant; these are the two that don't. The Xiaomi AI Glasses pair a camera with Xiaomi's own voice assistant — XiaoAI, in Chinese, for Xiaomi's home market — and they are a shipping product: released in mid 2025 at 40 grams, with about 8.6 hours of recorded battery life, sold as a cheaper camera-glasses alternative inside Xiaomi's ecosystem. The Acer GI0 was announced at Computex 2026 around Google Gemini — voice help, live translation, captions, and image recognition, per the announcement — aimed at the US and Europe in the fourth quarter of 2026.

Shipping in China vs announced for the West

Availability is the verdict here, and it cuts both ways. The Xiaomi glasses exist, but China-first is the whole story: there is no announced international release, so a US buyer gets an imported Chinese-market device — the companion app and the assistant live in Chinese, and there is no official US support if something breaks. That is what the purchase actually is, stated plainly. The GI0 points the other way: built for Western markets with Google's assistant, but it is an announcement with a Q4 window, not a product — Acer's own page was still unreachable when we checked, so every GI0 figure on this page stays labeled announced.

Which should you buy?

Buy the Xiaomi AI Glasses only if you live inside Xiaomi's Chinese ecosystem — or genuinely want an import with a Chinese app and no US support — because within that world it is the proven, shipping pick. For everyone else, the honest answer is to wait: the Acer GI0 is the version of this idea built for your market and your language, with Gemini instead of a locked assistant, and the Q4 window is the price of that fit. If the window slips, nothing about the Xiaomi import gets easier in the meantime.
