Which should you buy?
What decides this is not the score, it is the display. Meta Adventurer Plug-in Case shows nothing and answers through the speakers, while Quark AI Glasses S1 shows information on the lens. Reading is far faster than listening, but you pay for it in battery, price and discretion.
The overall scores tie, so this is a use-case decision, not a scoreboard one.
Battery is not close: Quark AI Glasses S1 lasts 24 hours against 8 h for the Meta Adventurer Plug-in Case. At that gap, one lasts the day and the other does not.
Only Meta Adventurer Plug-in Case has manufacturer-confirmed support for your language. That changes daily use more than any spec, and most comparison sites skip it.
