Solos debuts an even lighter version of its camera-less smart glasses
TL;DR
Solos has announced the AirGo A6, camera-less smart glasses built around voice interaction and an AI assistant rather than photo or video capture. The weight cut is the headline: the AirGo A6 are said to weigh about 19 grams, down from 36 to 40 grams for last year’s AirGo A5, depending on frame style. Some of the reduction comes from thinner temple arms that still contain speakers, batteries and other electronics.
Nauti's Take
The interesting part is not that Solos is making another AI glasses product. It is the choice to leave out the camera and compete on wearability.
At 19 grams, the pitch moves from gadget to eyewear, which is where daily adoption will be decided. Still, the announcement is PR-heavy until Solos proves the assistant works well in noisy, ordinary situations.
Light is useful; smart still has to be earned.
Briefingshow
Solos is taking a different smart-glasses bet than Meta: less camera, less weight and less social friction. If the glasses actually feel like normal frames, they could be more practical for daily wear, work and prescription users than camera-first models. The catch is that without final pricing, battery life and proven assistant quality, this is still mostly a hardware promise.
