Came across this review on YouTube: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fxtl9VChZhM

Monochrome (green) head mounted display that looks like a regular pair of glasses. Mainly useful as a HUD. Has a microphone but no speakers. Seems to have basic head tracking. Marketing claims a day and a half of battery life with light use.

Main Features:

Teleprompter
Live Translation
Speech-to-Text 30-Second Notes
Phone Notifications
AI Assistant (an LLM)
GPS navigation
Time/Date/Weather

There are those Bose glasses headphones which, iirc, were pretty bulky, and also they leaked the sound so everyone nearby would hear. Maybe bone conducting would work but I think you need a bit of pressure for those to work well which would (probably) be uncomfortable after a while.
