RayNeo iO vs Solos AirGo 3: which should you buy?

Who should get the RayNeo iO

Get the RayNeo iO if you want an assistant in your lens and nothing else on your face. RayNeo lists it at 33 grams, with free answers from RayNeo AI or Gemini shown on the lens and no camera on the frames. It also shows live translation as people talk, and it works with an iPhone and with an Android phone.

Who should get the Solos AirGo 3

Get the AirGo 3 if you want audio glasses that look good and talk back. Solos gives them open-ear speakers, about 10 hours of music and ChatGPT by voice, with live translation for group conversations. They work with an iPhone and with an Android phone.

The differences that matter

The AirGo 3 is the tougher pair, rated IP67 against IP54, so it handles rain and sweat better. If you wear glasses outdoors in all weather, that counts.

If sound is the reason, it is worth a look.

Smart glasses only work if you keep wearing them, so fit matters more than any spec. Try a pair on if you can, and check what prescription lenses will cost before you order. A pair that pinches your nose or slides down on a warm day will end up in a drawer, whatever it can do.
