The Chinese tech giant Alibaba has stepped boldly into the global wearables race with the debut of its Quark AI Glasses, a lightweight pair of smart glasses powered by the company's own Qwen model.
The device, which lands in China this week with a starting price of 1,899 yuan (approximately US $268 or £202.51), has immediately grabbed global attention for bringing high-end AI capabilities to an everyday wearable that feels as natural as a pair of reading glasses.
