Sep 5(ABC): If the idea of a pair of smart glasses that lets you create your own mini-cinema excites you, they you would want to give Lenovo’s new Glasses T-1 a try.

The wearable display device was first unveiled at IFA 2022 and is set to hit the Chinese markets later this year. It allows a user to connect to their smart device, whether a phone or a computer and instantly create a virtual reality (VR) or augmented reality (AR)

The glasses, developed by Hong Kong-based tech firm Lenovo, include two Micro OLED screens – one for each eye.

They can connect with any smart device with display output, including your desktop or laptop computer running on Microsoft Windows or a smartphone (iPhone or Android).

How do they work

To use the device, you have to first connect them to a smart device.

This can be an Android or Apple phone or a Windows PC.

The glasses can be plugged in using a USB Type-C cable. For iPhones and other Apple smart devices, users must use a special HDMI to Glasses adapter for the lightning connector — or an Apple Lightning AV adapter.

Then the device will sync up with the phone and start working.

Technical specifications

The smart glasses have two screens built in. Each screen has a full high definition (HD) resolution of 1920×1080 pixels and a refresh rate of 60Hz.

Additionally, the Lenovo Glasses T1 has built-in speakers that allow users to enjoy content while on the go.
