For
- Sohu picks the V3 twice: for photo and live translation, and for first-person video.
- The spec sheet gives a Snapdragon AR1 and a 12MP Sony IMX681: 4K stills, 1440p vertical video, 39 grams.
- RayNeo's DevDoc opens the AI Studio agent builder to anyone, with no company sign-up.
- Two speakers and three microphones, which Sohu says spare a separate earphone.
Against
- RayNeo states just over 30 minutes of continuous recording from 159mAh, and the case is sold apart.
- IPX4 covers splashes only, where the V4 that followed it carries IP67.
- Leike Tech's headline says the software is still maturing, and the body could not be read.
- Sold only in China: it is not in the global store, checked on September 6, 2026.
- AI Studio is cloud-only: no external API, no access to the 12MP camera, no sideloading.
The V3 is a camera you wear, with nothing to look at. This file records a Snapdragon AR1, a 12MP Sony IMX681, 1440p vertical or 1080p landscape video, Wi-Fi 6, 32GB, 39 grams and IPX4. RayNeo states over 30 minutes of recording and over 18 hours of standby from 159mAh; the 70 hours in the marketing need the 3,000mAh case, sold separately.
Price tells the rest. Pre-sales opened on January 7, 2025 at 1,799 yuan. After the V4, IT Home and Sina Finance recorded the subsidised price at 973.86 yuan in May 2026 and 499 in June, 72% below list. No source declares the line ended, and the global store did not list it on September 6, 2026.
Outside coverage is thin. Sohu picks it twice, for photos and for first-person video, with no drawback; Leike Tech's headline is the only critical voice, hardware good and software still maturing; its body could not be read. NetEase reports an assistant on Alibaba's Tongyi Qianwen, 98% recognition claimed by the maker.
Development has a door, but a narrow one. RayNeo's DevDoc opens AI Studio, a no-code agent builder for the V series, to anyone, with a private QR mode and a 3 to 5 business day review to publish. The agents are documented as cloud-only, with no external API: no camera access, no sideloading. You automate the assistant, you do not program the device. It suits a Chinese buyer who wants cheap capture, not a developer who wants the camera.
Verdict
Three external reviews, two of them Sohu roundups with no drawback, and a Leike Tech headline: hardware good, software still maturing. A camera with no display, 1,799 yuan at launch and 499 with subsidy by June 2026. Cheap capture for whoever accepts 30 minutes of recording, closed to code.
