Right for you — or maybe not?

We tell you both. If the right column applies more, we'll honestly recommend a different model.

The Even G2 is right for you if …

  • You want information discreetly in view (translation, navigation, notes, AI).
  • Privacy matters to you and you deliberately want to wear no camera.
  • You're looking for lightweight, unobtrusive glasses for the whole day.
  • You need prescription lenses and want to use the G2 as your everyday glasses.
  • Swiss service, fitting and warranty handling matter to you.

Probably not the right one if …

  • You mainly want to take photos/film → rather the Ray-Ban Meta (comparison).
  • You're looking for a large, colour screen for films/gaming → rather the XREAL One.
  • You need a colour display instead of monochrome.
  • You expect loud speakers for music (the G2 has none).
  • You want display and camera in one → rather the Rokid Glasses (comparison).

Frequently asked questions

Who is the Even G2 worth it for?

For anyone who wants information discreetly in view — translation, navigation, notes, teleprompter, AI — in lightweight glasses (35 g) without a camera, optionally with prescription. Ideal for people who talk a lot, work internationally, commuters and glasses wearers who value their privacy.

Who is it not the right choice for?

If you mainly want to take photos/film (then rather the Ray-Ban Meta), are looking for a large colour screen (then rather the XREAL One), need a colour display or expect loud speakers. The Even G2 deliberately does without a camera and speakers.

What is the best alternative if I want a camera?

For photo/video the Ray-Ban Meta; for display + camera the Rokid Glasses. All with sources in the database — or let the Finder decide.
