Alibaba's Qwen S1 Display Smart Glasses hands on at MWC 2026 - Sopuli
The Qwen S1 specs have a heads-up waveguide display etched into the lenses, and
serve as a rival to Meta’s Ray-Ban Display model (minus the gesture control). My
first impression of these AR glasses was that they were light and comfortable to
wear – I wouldn’t have known that they were smart glasses by their weight alone.
At the end of each arm are swappable batteries, which snap off easily so you can
keep the glasses running for longer when you’re on the go.

Meta triples sales of smart glasses with 7 million sold - Sopuli
Meta sold more than seven million smart glasses last year. This is according to
the annual report of the world’s largest eyewear manufacturer EssilorLuxottica,
which the company published on Wednesday evening. EssilorLuxottica develops and
sells the smart glasses together with Meta. A year ago, it was said that two
million smart glasses were sold and that the annual production capacity was to
be increased to 10 million units by the end of 2026. In the summer, the company
announced that sales had more than tripled compared to the previous year. A
quarter later, EssilorLuxottica stated that smart glasses now accounted for a
third of its revenue growth and that plans to increase production were being
further accelerated.

MSC Cruises is banning smart glasses in common areas - Sopuli
MSC Cruises is the latest one to ban smart glasses and this may be becoming more
and more of a problem for people using them. Previously in Egypt tourists have
reportedly been blocked from going to see the pyramids and some museums there
also ban them. Saudi Arabian authorities apparently confiscate them at the
airport from arriving passengers. Anyone who needs a prescription needs to
consider that they may not be able to use them everywhere.
