Halliday launches G2 camera-free display glasses for meetings, $599, shipping September 2026

Halliday, maker of a widely criticized 2025 debut model, opened presale on its G2 smart glasses on July 22, 2026, at $599, with full shipments and prescription options planned for September 2026. The camera-free G2 uses dual micro-LED projectors on a binocular waveguide display (600x300 per eye, up to 1,600 nits), a four-microphone array with roughly two-meter voice pickup, under 50 grams total weight, and over 12 hours of typical battery life, aimed at live meeting transcription and heads-up notes rather than photography.
