SOLOS AirGo 3 Argon 8 Parent

Terrible latency issue. Makes them almost unusable. Forget a conversations in a crowd. Promised functionality requires purchase of a newer version. If not for the prescription lenses I already purchased I'd send them back. BTW requires constant internet connection.

The Solos AI AirGo 3 smart glasses bring a well-thought-out design and an excellent fit, making them comfortable for extended wear. They sit just right on the face without feeling bulky or awkward—a definite win in the design department. The Solos app has performed well so far, with only one crash within the first 24 hours. However, a significant downside appeared after a firmware update. Initially, the phone's photo album connected successfully, but after the update, this function stopped working entirely. Instead, the app now suggests an upgrade to Solos AirGo V, a device with no official release date yet. Assistant Features: Useful but with Room to Grow The built-in AI assistant is another strong point. It can fetch basic news and weather updates from selected sources and even whisper incoming text messages, making it a useful hands-free companion. While not groundbreaking, these features add convenience to everyday use. However, the virtual coach functionality, which is meant to assist with fitness and activity tracking, requires more advanced integration with third-party wearables. While this is not yet seamless, the fact that the feature is already designed in suggests that future updates could make it a powerful addition. Given the rapid development of AI and smart wearable ecosystems, this aspect of the AirGo glasses holds great promise. Music Search: Not Quite as Expected One of the more unexpected limitations is the music search feature. Unlike Shazam, which can recognize and identify music instantly, the AirGo 3 requires specific prompts for ChatGPT-4o Mini Assistant to search for music, making it less intuitive than expected. The Best Feature – AI Translation But here’s where Solos AirGo 3 truly shines—and why I’m more than willing to wait for the AirGo V: the translator feature. It works flawlessly across the 25 languages listed in the product description (I tested two), delivering smooth, precise, and highly accurate translations. This is a breakthrough for real-time translation in smart wearables, finally making it a truly functional and reliable tool. I haven’t tested it in a noisy environment yet, but for standard use, it’s the best AI-powered translation experience I’ve encountered. Final Verdict While the firmware update issues and music search limitations leave room for improvement, the excellent design, app stability, AI assistant features, and game-changing translation capability make the AirGo 3 a standout device. If real-time, high-quality AI translation is a priority, this is a wearable worth considering. And with the promise of AirGo V on the horizon, the future of smart glasses just got a lot more exciting!
