Sports glasses are getting an AI makeover, and BleeqUp is a new entrant that's doing interesting things in this category. The brand rolled out the Ranger earlier this year, and while the glasses are aimed at cycling, they hold up just as well during any outdoor activity. They're positioned as a 4-in-1 smart sunglasses, able to record footage, deliver built-in audio, serve as a walkie-talkie, and can be used with prescription lenses.
I've had the glasses for the better part of six months now, but I only started using them in earnest for two months during outdoor workouts, and they've been pretty great. They retail for $379, undercutting Meta's offering by a considerable amount. I used the glasses predominantly with my iPhone 17 Pro, and BleeqUp has an Android app that allows you to pair the glasses with just about any phone.
