Xiaomi has opened registrations for a new beta version of its Xiaomi AI Glasses, announcing the launch of its “Pioneer Experience Program” on December 11. The company will recruit 200 users to test upcoming features and firmware changes before the public release.
The new beta adds voice-based parking fee payments. After users activate the feature and link their vehicle plate number, saying “Xiao Ai, pay parking fee” will process the payment directly. This allows drivers to pay before reaching the exit gate and leave faster. Xiaomi is also adding an option to disable the inner indicator light while charging and has included several stability fixes.
Participation requires applying through the Xiaomi Community App under the internal testing section. Approved users will be added automatically to the dedicated beta group.
Registration is open from December 11, 16:00 to December 12, 16:00. The testing period runs from December 13, 15:00 to December 19, 24:00. Xiaomi expects to push the new beta version before 15:00 on December 13.
Xiaomi’s first AI Glasses were introduced in June at a starting price of 1999 yuan. The device weighs 40g, supports prescription lenses, and is available in multiple frame designs. It includes a 12MP first-person camera for photos and video recording, with support for video calls and live streaming through third-party apps. The glasses also feature open-ear stereo speakers and a five-microphone system for voice pickup.
The product is designed as a portable AI device with real-time assistance, translation across 10 languages, on-device encyclopedia access, and smart control for Xiaomi phones and smart home devices. Users can trigger voice commands, set reminders, or control appliances without using their phone.
Other features include 2K 30fps video recording with EIS stabilization, 0.8-second quick capture, integration with Xiaomi phones for seamless camera switching during calls or streaming, and support for 14 major apps. The electrochromic lenses can switch tint levels in 0.2 seconds with four adjustable stages.
The glasses use the Qualcomm AR1 chip paired with a low-power audio processor, offering up to 21 hours of standby time and typical usage of 8.6 hours. The device supports Type-C charging and includes dedicated camera and touch controls.
