Xiaomi is expanding its wearable lineup in Europe with the Mijia Smart Audio Glasses—an intriguing alternative to earbuds for people who want music and calls without feeling “plugged in” all day. Think of them as everyday glasses that quietly double as an open-ear Bluetooth headset, designed for work, commutes, and outdoor walks where awareness matters.
Open-ear audio without earbuds in your ears
Instead of relying on in-ear tips or bulky over-ears, Xiaomi integrates ultrasonic SLS0820 speakers directly into the temples. The idea is simple: keep your ears unobstructed while still delivering clear audio for playlists, podcasts, and calls. That open-ear approach can be especially appealing if you bike, walk in busy streets, or simply don’t like the sealed-off sensation that many wireless earbuds create.
Because the sound is projected from the frame, you can stay alert to what’s happening around you—an everyday safety win that also feels more natural in conversations. Ever had to pause your music just to hear a coworker or a train announcement? This design aims to make that less of a constant interruption.
Titanium build, modern look
Xiaomi leans into style here. The Mijia Smart Audio Glasses use a titanium frame, a material known for being both lightweight and durable. That matters for something you might wear for hours at a time—whether you’re in the office, heading to a meeting, or taking a casual stroll. In other words, they’re meant to look like glasses first, and smart tech second.
13-hour battery life and USB-C charging
Battery life is often where smart wearables get inconvenient, but Xiaomi claims up to 13 hours of continuous use. That should comfortably cover a full workday of calls and background listening, or long travel days when you don’t want to keep hunting for a charger.
When it is time to top up, charging happens via USB-C—still the most practical choice for anyone trying to avoid yet another proprietary cable in their bag.
Bluetooth 5.0 and voice assistant support
For connectivity, the glasses rely on Bluetooth 5.0 for quick pairing and stable connections with smartphones and other devices. The hands-free experience is rounded out with voice command support, allowing users to interact with virtual assistants without pulling out a phone—useful when you’re walking, cooking, or juggling work tasks.
With their mix of titanium design, open-ear audio, and long battery life, the Xiaomi Mijia Smart Audio Glasses land as a compelling option for anyone who wants wearable audio that feels less intrusive than traditional earbuds—while still staying connected throughout the day.
