Robert Scoble argues that AI glasses will soon become commodities, and that the true competitive moat lies in the internal user experience. He notes he is personally waiting for Google's offerings.
Meanwhile, Unseen Reality announced its upcoming display-replacing XR glasses, URXR One, launching on Kickstarter on August 4. Weighing 93g, the glasses feature mini pancake optics with dual micro-OLED displays (2448x2064 resolution, 90Hz refresh rate, 90-degree diagonal FoV). The Kickstarter price is set at $800 ahead of its $900 MSRP, with shipping targeted for mid-October 2026.
