Why the Even G2 feels like regular glasses
Design and fit
Even Realities focused on making the Even G2 indistinguishable from normal eyewear. There’s no prominent front-facing camera or bulky lenses; the display elements are subtle enough that the frames appear conventional at a glance.
Nose-pad adjustment and two frame styles (round and square) help drivers of fit. A clip-on sunglass accessory is available to improve display contrast outdoors, and prescription lenses are an optional add-on.
Controls and comfort
Touch pads sit at the back of each arm for intuitive control — double-tap to wake, swipe to move between screens, long press to open menus. After a short period of wear the controls become second nature, and Even’s look-up gesture shows notifications without using your hands.
Some new users reported initial adjustment to wearing any glasses, but the frames are light and stable for extended walking and all-day wear.
Smart features that add daily value
Conversate: real-time notes and context
Conversate transcribes both sides of a conversation, generates AI summaries, and tags contextual details mentioned in real time. Transcripts and summaries are stored in the Even Realities app for later review, making the feature useful for meetings, interviews, or travel.
Translate and Navigate
Translate offers live language conversion during conversations. It isn’t a perfect conversational partner replacement, but it reduces friction versus pulling out a phone to run Google Translate.
Navigate presents heads-up visual cues for direction. It’s well suited for pedestrian use, with potential for biking or other on-foot navigation.
Battery, price and accessories
The Even G2 ships with a carrying case that doubles as a wireless charger to top up the frames between uses. MSRP is $599.
Even Realities also plans the Even R1 smart ring, a companion input device that moves controls off the ear and onto your finger for more discreet, tactile input.
Bottom line
At CES 2026 the Even G2 stood out for blending polished industrial design with practical AI features. For users who want smart functionality without bulky hardware, these glasses are a promising balance of comfort and capability.
