Two affordable smart glasses launch, one with 20MP Sony camera, one with tint-shift lenses

Rogbid has been branching out from fitness wearables for a while now. As of today, the company has put two pairs of smart glasses up on its official store. Both went live on October 13: the VisionMax costs $139.99 and comes with a camera and an AI assistant. The VisionShift Pro skips the camera entirely and sells for $69.99.

The VisionMax uses a 20 MP Sony IMX388D sensor. Rogbid says it records 4K video at up to 60 FPS and also uses 6-axis gyro stabilization to steady footage while walking or cycling. The spec sheet only lists the 20 MP figure, though, so those video claims rest on the press release. An Allwinner V881 chip handles the processing. Rogbid says the assistant runs on Alibaba’s Tongyi Qianwen and GPT-5.4. It can identify objects from photos, translate between more than 100 languages, transcribe meetings and estimate calories in a meal.

Audio comes through open-ear speakers. A bone-conduction microphone works alongside two more mics with noise cancellation for calls. The 290 mAh battery is rated for 8 to 9 hours of music and over seven days in standby. The manufacturer hasn’t given a figure for video recording; we can only expect it to drain it a lot faster. The TR90 frame is rated IP66 and charges over USB-C. Buyers can pick blue-light, photochromic or sunglass lenses.

The VisionShift Pro is a simpler pair on the other hand. The liquid crystal lenses on that one are electrochromic and switch between clear, red, blue and purple tints. Rogbid also lists UV400 protection and anti-glare. It runs on an AB5632 chip, connects over Bluetooth 5.4 and uses buttons and touch for controls. The 150 mAh battery charges magnetically, and the frame is made of ABS and polycarbonate. The spec table gives no battery life or IP rating, though, and only describes it as "life waterproof."

Also, neither spec sheet lists a weight. The VisionMax table doesn’t mention onboard storage either, which does matter for a pair meant to shoot 4K clips.

Most of my time goes into writing - and somehow it hasn’t stopped being fun yet. My work mainly revolves around everyday tech, gaming, watches, DIY modding, and the occasional piece on tech-policy chaos when companies and governments clash. I try to keep things simple and honest, without sounding like a product brochure. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science Engineering and an Associate Degree in English Studies from the College of New Caledonia in British Columbia, Canada. Away from articles and deadlines, life usually shifts to making music, taking photos, or trying to finish games that should have been completed months ago.
