Looktech’s AI Glasses Know the Difference Between Your Voice and Everyone Else’s in the Room.
Most people see someone wearing smart glasses and think one of two things: they look ridiculous, or that the tech inside will probably disappoint. Looktech seems aware of both problems. The frames carry a retro square design, run on OpenAI’s GPT-5 model, include a 13-megapixel camera, open-ear audio, and an assistant named Memo that remembers previous conversations. Unlocking and controlling the device relies on your unique voice, so no one else can get in. Whether this holds up in daily life is another question, but on paper, the gap between eyewear and everyday AI feels narrower than before.

Next, you’ll get a closer look at the frame design, AI assistant features, camera, audio, privacy settings, lens options, app, and pricing.
What the Frame Looks and Feels Like
Looktech AI glasses come in a retro square shape that suits most face types. The frame weighs 34 grams and uses titanium alloy hinges. The temple arms curve to follow the natural contour of the ear for a comfortable fit. Frame measurements are lens width 52mm, bridge width 22mm, lens height 44.2mm, hinge-to-hinge span 135.6mm, and temple length 148.5mm.
What Memo Does and How It Helps
Looktech’s AI assistant, named “Memo,” runs on GPT-5 and responds to the wake phrase “Hey Memo.” Once active, it accepts spoken questions and commands without requiring the user to touch the glasses or look at a screen. Users can ask follow-up questions, change topics mid-conversation, or interrupt a response at any time.
Looktech outlines Memo as a personal reference point for quick facts and terms, a life advisor for daily guidance and personal concerns, a work companion for productivity tasks, and a travel translator for reading signs, labels, and menus. For information retrieval, users can ask about any fact, term, or topic and receive an immediate spoken answer. For personal guidance, Memo draws on past conversations to give responses that fit individual routines, covering daily tips and concerns. For productivity, Memo can capture ideas, summarize meetings, and take notes hands-free, helping users stay organized on the go. For translation, users point the camera at a sign, label, or menu, and Memo speaks the translation back. No need to type; just point, and the answer comes through audio.
GPT-5 learns user preferences over time and delivers contextual support tailored to each person.
Capturing Photos and Video
The 13-megapixel camera captures 4K images at a resolution of 4208 by 3120 pixels and 2K video at 2104 by 1560 pixels at 30 frames per second. Anti-shake technology is included. The camera also includes anti-shake technology intended to reduce blur during recording from a moving perspective. Video recordings are 15, 30, or 60 seconds long. A capture indicator light turns on whenever the camera is active. The camera can be started using the Capture Button on the frame or by saying “Hey Memo, record a video.” Photos and videos are stored on 32GB of flash storage and managed through the Looktech app.
How the Audio Works
The glasses have a built-in open audio system with two speakers and two microphones. The open-ear speakers do not block out surrounding sounds, so users can listen to music, AI replies, and more while staying aware of what is around them. Calls are made with just the voice, with no need for earbuds, in open-ear comfort. Whether walking or multitasking, users can hear and speak naturally through the glasses. Wireless connectivity runs through Bluetooth 5.4, and Wi-Fi 6 is also supported.
Controlling the Glasses: Touch and Voice
The glasses are controlled through buttons and voice commands. The buttons include a Capture Button for triggering the camera, an AI Button, and the Media Crown. The Media Crown handles music and call management through press and rotation: a short press plays or pauses music, or answers an incoming call; pressing it twice ends a call; and rotating it adjusts the volume. A capture indicator light turns on whenever the camera is active. The camera can also be started by voice using the command “Hey Memo, record a video,” which activates recording without interrupting the current workflow.
Battery Life and Charging
The glasses have a 160 mAh rechargeable battery with a runtime of up to 14 hours per charge. Actual usage time will vary depending on how often features like the camera, AI processing, Bluetooth, and audio are active.
Security and Privacy Features
Looktech’s security starts with the user’s voice. Voiceprint authentication is used to unlock and control the device, so only the unique vocal pattern of the user can access the glasses and the AI memories stored within them, protecting those memories from unauthorized access. Data is protected through end-to-end encryption using TLS and AES for secure transmission and storage. Transparent Control allows users to view, modify, delete, or export their information at any time through the app.
The Looktech App
Looktech has a companion app that works with the glasses, compatible with iOS 17 and Android 10 or above. Through the app, users can pair the glasses, manage photos and videos, and review chats with the AI, all in one place.
Lens Choices and Prescription Options
Three lens types are available: clear lenses, sunglass lenses, and prescription lenses. Clear and sunglass lenses come in five color options: clear, grey, brown, gradient grey, and gradient brown, with polarized or transition finishes also available. Prescription lenses come with MR-174 material, essential coatings, and a free 1.74 upgrade. The 1.74 high-index option is an ultra-thin lens, up to 43 percent thinner and lighter than standard lenses. Both single-vision and progressive-vision prescriptions are supported.
Price and Where to Buy
Looktech AI glasses are available for pre-order on the official Looktech website. The Black, Gradient Dark, and Dark Transparent frames are priced at $299.00, and the Havana frame is priced at $319.00. Every order includes the glasses with the chosen lens type, a charging case, a charging cable, and a charging clip. For items currently out of stock, the Looktech website offers a waitlist option, where users can register their email to receive a notification when stock becomes available.
The Bottom Line
Smart glasses have had an uneven history, delivering big ideas that rarely matched reality. Looktech pulls together enough features to at least make the conversation more serious than it has been: GPT-5, a capable camera, an all-day battery, and voice-locked security wrapped in a design that doesn’t draw unwanted attention. Whether users want an AI that remembers their habits, preferences, and past conversations and weaves them into their daily routine is a question only real-world use can answer. The category is still finding its footing, and that answer will only come with time and honest feedback from the people who actually use them.
