Xiaomi trumps Apple and presents its very first augmented reality glasses!
We wondered who was going to draw the first in the augmented reality sector. While all eyes were on Apple, the firm decided to simply put the project on hold. Enough to give Xiaomi the opportunity to be a pioneer in the field!

While we have been hearing a lot about Apple’s future mixed reality headset in recent days, which should be launched at the same time as the iPhone 15, it is another tech manufacturer that is in the news today. The Chinese manufacturer Xiaomi has just presented several visuals of its augmented reality glasses on the internet, along with certain details of this product. And it is the boss of the firm who is in charge of the publicity.
We can thus see appearing on Lei Jun’s Twitter account this news Xiaomi Wireless AR Glass Discovery Edition. And despite a rather imposing design, reminiscent of the best science fiction films, the latter should be quite light to carry. The fault of a design that benefits from materials such as carbon fibers and a magnesium-lithium alloy.
But when is the release?
The presentation video really manages to make people dream. Once coated, these glasses can be easily connected to a smartphone, and above all will connect the user with a new world. It will thus be possible to move virtual objects with a simple movement of the hand, to zoom at will, or even to turn virtual pages with your finger. The connection with other objects in the house (such as the television) is even mentioned.
But if the public surely has water in the mouth, the Xiaomi Wireless AR Glass Discovery Edition however, suffers from a few shortcomings. In any case, they suffer from a cruel lack of information. No indication of price or release date has been offered. It should also be noted that the presentation was made through the personal account of the CEO of Xiaomi, and not through the more official channels. Could this be a simple trial run?
