There are two problems with smart glasses today. Most don’t deliver that futuristic display we all want to have, and the camera has become a serious point of friction. INMO GO3 solve both problems while also supporting Google’s Gemini and more.
The promise of INMO GO3 is to deliver an AI-forward pair of smart glasses that help you stay connected and get things done, but without using your phone quite as much. It delivers on that through software, of course, but also the fact that it puts an actual display in front of your eyes. So, unlike most existing smart glasses, you’re able to interact with everything without interrupting a conversation or glancing at your phone. The MicroLED displays – one for each eye – are bright (up to 1,500 nits) and have a 30-degree field-of-view.
One of the core features is translation, with GO3 supporting real-time translation across 98 languages, and even supporting 13 languages fully offline. The glasses detect speech from the person in front of you and put a translation of that right in your eyeline, letting you get over the language barrier without putting your phone in the middle. Similarly, GO3 can take notes during meetings, and coming soon, it will also be able to present summaries directly through the glasses.
The display can also be used as a teleprompter, or to interact with an AI assistant. INMO’s AI assistant is powered by Google’s Gemini and OpenAI’s ChatGPT and can do things such as answer questions, recognize images taken by the camera, and take notes, among other functions. The display can also be used for turn-by-turn navigation to help you get around without using your phone.
Despite all the additional functionality here, INMO GO3 remain lightweight. The glasses weigh in at 58g, just a tiny bit heavier than Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses – the ones without a display. The 8mm temples also ensure these don’t stand out in a bad way – they just look like normal glasses!
One of the coolest features here is the battery. Smart glasses by their very nature are limited in terms of how long the battery can go, so INMO designed the battery to be interchangeable. When the first battery drains, simply swap out the power pack with a fresh one that’s on the charger and keep wearing the glasses. The included charging case can still top off the battery, but a replaceable cell gets you up and going faster.
As mentioned, there is a camera on board here, but one of the really thoughtful additions INMO offers is a privacy cover. This physical shade covers the camera lens, providing some visible confirmation that the camera is not in use.
INMO GO3 also gets some boosts from accessories such as a speaker that can be used alongside AI translation to respond to the other person in their language, but using an AI clone of your voice. There’s also a controller ring you can wear to interact with GO3’s software without touching the actual glasses. Finally, you can also add on a sunglasses cover to improve GO3’s usability outside, and there are prescription lens inserts too.
INMO GO3 is on sale now for just $509.
