Rokid Max 2 glasses look more modern and elegant compared to the first generation. The frame comes in black and silver colors, while the temples have become slightly thinner, although the overall weight remains the same — 75 g. The glasses do not look like regular sunglasses, but they are less bulky than before. For comfort, adjustable soft nose pads and flexible temples adapt to the shape of the user’s head. There is also built-in diopter correction, allowing users to adjust the lenses to their vision without additional inserts. Tinted lenses help protect the eyes from excess light. There is also a separate blackout cover designed to improve the visual experience when consuming content.

Image and sound quality

• Display: Micro-OLED, Full HD resolution, excellent color reproduction and sharpness even at the edges;
• Field of view: 50 degrees — one of the best among AR glasses on the market;
• Brightness: up to 600 nits — sufficient for indoor use, though it may be lacking in direct sunlight;
