TREE NEWS update: Qwen released the AI glasses N1 and N1 Pro along with AI clip-on earbuds on October 13, putting its Personal Agent into everyday use. The N1 series carries a 50-megapixel imaging system with all-day environmental sensing, translation, meeting notes and voice task handling; the N1 Pro adds real-time vital-sign monitoring, eye-tracking interaction and iris identity verification. The earbuds, co-developed with Bose, support multilingual translation and live AI note-taking. Glasses start at 2,218 yuan and earbuds at 1,099 yuan after subsidies.
Qwen launches AI glasses N1 and N1 Pro plus Bose co-branded earbuds
The notable move here is form factor rather than specs: Qwen is pushing its Personal Agent off the phone and into wearables, with the Pro tier adding biometric and iris-based identity features that edge toward continuous personal data collection. Pairing with Bose on audio signals an intent to compete on hardware credibility, not just model capability. Whether always-on sensing and vital-sign monitoring translate into durable daily use — and how that data is governed — is the open question worth watching.
