With intuitive interaction, superior sound, advanced video capabilities, and camera-enabled AI, Solos' AirGoâ„¢ A5 and AirGoâ„¢ V2 set a new benchmark for wearable intelligence
HONG KONG, June 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Solos®, a leading innovator in the world of smart glasses and wearable AI, yesterday announced the launch of its next-generation of smart glasses at the Smart Glasses Symposium 2025 in Hong Kong. Expanding its AirGo product line, Solos introduces the AirGoâ„¢ A5, the latest evolution in audio-focused smart eyewear designed for hands-free access to everyday AI, and the AirGoâ„¢ V2, the company's most advanced visual AI glasses to date, featuring live video capabilities, an ultra-slim 16MP camera, and more.
The new releases represent a major leap forward in Solos' mission to make wearable AI more intuitive, accessible, and integrated into daily life. The launch also marks the beginning of a new phase for Solos' open ecosystem, with select Software Development Kit (SDK) partners already working to build innovative applications on the platform, unlocking even greater customization and AI-powered use cases across health, lifestyle, and productivity.
"With AirGoâ„¢ A5 and V2, we're not just introducing new features, we're changing the way people interact with AI in everyday life," said Kenneth Fan, co-founder of Solos. "These new generations reflect our vision for smart living, where wearable tech works quietly in the background to support your day, not disrupt it."
Solos AirGoâ„¢ A5: Smarter, More Seamless Everyday AI
In a world of increasingly complex tech, AirGoâ„¢ A5 stands out by doing more with less, bringing rich audio, intuitive AI, and effortless functionality into a familiar, lightweight form. Designed for users who want everyday glasses and intelligent features without the bulk or distraction of traditional wearables, the fifth-generation A5 refines Solos' audio-first experience into something you can wear all day.
The A5 features automatic power-on/off for effortless activation and hands-free wake-up word functionality, letting users simply say "Hey Solos" to engage AI tools like SolosChat without reaching for a phone. Whether queuing up a warm-up routine, finding a dinner recipe, or replying to a message while on the go, A5 integrates real-time assistance into everyday routines.
Natural, fluid interactions are now even more seamless, allowing users to jump in with follow-up questions, just like talking to a friend. Upgraded directional audio minimizes sound leakage for a more private listening experience, while enhanced bass delivers richer, deeper sound quality across music, calls, and voice responses.
Compatible with all frame fronts in the existing AirGo 3 lineup, the AirGoâ„¢ A5 offers an easy upgrade path for current users, blending advanced smart features into the style and comfort of everyday eyewear.
Solos AirGoâ„¢ V2: Next-Level Vision and AI in the Slimmest Smartglasses Yet
The second generation of Solos' Vision AI smartglasses, the AirGoâ„¢ V2, pushes wearable technology further with a powerful combination of camera, AI, and real-time connectivity features, all in a slim, feather-light design made for all-day comfort. Equipped with the world's slimmest 16MP camera featuring advanced Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS), users can capture high-resolution images and Full HD video with incredible clarity, even during movement. It's a go-to tool for travelers, content creators, and anyone wanting to document and share life in the moment.
New to this model is live video streaming powered by ultra-low-power Wi-Fi, enabling real-time sharing without sacrificing battery life. The AirGoâ„¢ V2 also introduces SolosChat 3.0, a multi-modal AI platform that combines image, video, audio, and text for deeper, more dynamic interactions. Whether it's identifying objects, translating signs, or getting quick answers from multiple AI models, including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and DeepSeek, the experience is built for smart, seamless living.
The AirGoâ„¢ V2 retains all the intuitive user features introduced in the A5, including auto power-on/off, wake-up word activation, natural, interruptible conversation, and enhanced directional audio for private listening. It continues Solos' signature modular system equipped with SmartHingeâ„¢, allowing users to easily swap out frame fronts to match their style. A swappable battery also provides added flexibility for those looking to extend video recording time and power through longer days. Thoughtfully designed with adjustable nose pads and temple tips, AirGoâ„¢ V2 blends style, comfort, and advanced functionality in one unified platform.
Solos is the Leading Smartglasses Platform with Strategic SDK Partners
As part of its open platform approach for design and software, Solos is working with select SDK partners to explore new AI-driven applications across accessibility, consumer technology, and healthcare. Initial collaborations include Envision, Deutsche Telekom, and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, which is piloting speech therapy use cases.
