Which should you buy?
What decides this is not the score, it is the display. Quark AI Glasses S1 shows information on the lens, while Xiaomi AI Glasses shows nothing and answers through the speakers. Reading is far faster than listening, but you pay for it in battery, price and discretion.
Quark AI Glasses S1 wins the overall score by 0.1 points, but that score averages six criteria and you will only use some of them.
Battery is not close: Quark AI Glasses S1 lasts 24 hours against 8.6 h for the Xiaomi AI Glasses. At that gap, one lasts the day and the other does not.
