Which should you buy?
What decides this is not the score, it is the display. Even Realities G2 shows information on the lens, while Meta Nova shows nothing and answers through the speakers. Reading is far faster than listening, but you pay for it in battery, price and discretion.
Meta Nova wins the overall score by 1.2 points, but that score averages six criteria and you will only use some of them.
Battery is not close: Even Realities G2 lasts 48 hours against 8 h for the Meta Nova. The reason is the camera: recording is what drains the cell.
Meta Nova has a camera and Even Realities G2 does not. If you want to capture without reaching for your phone, the comparison ends there.
Both have manufacturer-confirmed language support.
Watch the warranty: Even Realities G2 offers 2 years and Meta Nova offers 3 years.
