CES 2026 live: all the news, announcements, and innovations from the show floor and beyond
Lenovo is the latest tech company to get bit by the smart glasses bug. The company just showed off a pair of concept AI glasses at CES 2026.
While these weren’t a working prototype, we have some idea of where Lenovo’s head is at. The lightweight frames weigh about 45g and have a 2MP camera right above the nose bridge. You can also sort of see the binocular display in our photos. A nearby spec sheet hinted at a green monochrome display in both lenses — something we saw quite a lot of at last year’s show. Supposedly, there’s also a 28-degree field of view, 1,500 nits of brightness, two microphones, two speakers, and a 214mAh battery.
At least they look sort of stylish? But a 2MP camera is baffling.
Feature-wise, Lenovo says the glasses will have a mix of touch and voice controls, hands-free calling, music playback, and the ability to tether to a phone or PC. Connecting to PCs is pretty dang rare for smart glasses at the moment, especially for ones with this type of display tech. Other details were scant, but Lenovo says live translation, intelligent image recognition, and the ability to get summarized notifications from several devices are also on the table.
This is a somewhat baffling mix of features and specs. After all, a 2MP camera isn’t nearly good enough for photos and Meta’s glasses feature a 12MP camera. It’s also unclear what Lenovo envisions for connecting to PCs versus a smartphone, since most AI glasses are currently envisioned as on-the-go devices. But hey, perhaps that’s why Lenovo’s content to keep this a “concept” device for now.
