Even Realities G1: stay present with discreet HUD glasses for notes, navigation, alerts, and live translation

You’re gliding down Ibn Gabirol at 8:07, a cappuccino wedged in your bike’s cup holder, a Slack ping vibrating your pocket, and the Ayalon already looks like a parking lot. A calendar invite for a 9:00 stand‑up pops up, then a WhatsApp from a client landing at Ben Gurion. You look up—Rothschild plane trees flicker between sun and shade—and think, there’s got to be a calmer way to keep the day together.

The city doesn’t slow down; your attention can

Tel Aviv is a beautiful balagan. You sprint between product reviews in Sarona, a founders’ breakfast near Dizengoff, a demo in Herzliya, and a sunset run on the tayelet. Phones yank you out of every moment. Smartwatches buzz; earbuds isolate. You’re either buried in a screen or missing something important. It’s not that you want more tech. You want less friction.

For years, the options felt off: bulky headsets that scream “cyborg,” or “smart” accessories that are just… accessories. You’ve tried muting notifications. You’ve tried cowboy‑style inbox zero. You’ve tried willpower. Tel Aviv still wins.

Then a colleague hands you a pair of glasses. They look like normal, well‑made frames—matte, understated, prescription‑ready. “Look up,” she says. A clean line of soft green text floats a few meters ahead, there when you want it, gone when you don’t. Your next turn to Allenby. A note you dictated on the Red Line. A quiet alert that your investor is en route from Terminal 3. That’s it. No feeds. No dopamine traps. Just the signal.

Meet Even Realities G1.

The G1 is everyday eyewear with a discreet heads‑up display, purpose‑built for urban professionals who live between meetings, micro‑commutes, and multilingual moments. Think of it as a tiny, glanceable layer for the few things that truly matter: notes, alerts, and navigation—plus live translation when the moment calls for it—without losing eye contact or the vibe of the room. It’s high‑quality prescription glasses first, with a minimal HUD that appears only when you want it. Slides into your life like a new habit, not a new platform.

Here’s how it changes the rhythm of a Tel Aviv day.

You set off from Neve Tzedek and glance up—not down—and see your next turn for a quick Sarona pitch. No juggling phone, no blocking the bike lane, no guesswork at the roundabout. You arrive at the café and your glasses quietly surface your three‑point agenda. You stay present with the team; your notes scroll where only you can see. After lunch, an impromptu debrief becomes a hands‑free note that syncs to your to‑do list. Later, a visiting partner prefers speaking in Hebrew; you switch on translation and keep the conversation flowing in both directions, without breaking eye contact. The day hums. Fewer fumbles, less context‑switching, more flow.

If you’re skeptical, you’re not alone. Most of us thought wearable displays meant “look at me” hardware or AR gimmicks we’d never use. G1 is not that. The display is a slender, prescription‑friendly waveguide that projects clean, legible text into your real‑world view. You choose when and where it appears. You tune what gets through—calendar, reminders, messages from the people who matter—and leave the rest for later. No camera sticking out. No neon visor vibes. Just classic frames that pass the mirror test and the boardroom test.

Put simply: it’s tech with Tel Aviv priorities—practical, stylish, and fast.

From materials to ergonomics, the frames are engineered to feel like the glasses you already love. Premium metals for lightness and balance. Screwless hinges for durability. Temples designed to grip without squeezing, even when you’re sprinting across the crosswalk at Ibn Gabirol on a humid August morning. Prescription support is built in, not bolted on. If you need shades for the beach or the Ayalon glare at noon, clip‑on sun lenses snap on cleanly and keep the HUD visible. The interface is intentional: glance to check a line of text; tap to confirm or scroll; hold to capture a thought; keep walking.

Small wins stack up faster than you expect. By day three, you’re navigating without stopping mid‑sidewalk, capturing notes before they evaporate between meetings, and glancing at a quick caption instead of opening your phone every five minutes. The city feels a notch calmer. Your attention feels like yours.

• Discreet HUD you control: glance for turn‑by‑turn cues, notes, and VIP alerts without pulling out your phone.
• Prescription‑ready comfort: premium, lightweight frames designed for all‑day wear; sunglasses clip optional.
• Real‑time translation: keep Hebrew‑English conversations flowing in cafés, taxis, and quick stand‑ups.
• Hands‑free capture: dictate QuickNotes, set reminders, and see them when and where they matter.
• Better presence: stay in the moment—no camera, no constant audio, no social feed tugging at your sleeve.

You might be wondering: will I look weird? Short answer: no. G1 looks like considered eyewear, the kind your optician would happily recommend. The HUD sits quietly in your field of view and only shows up when you want it to. The frames don’t announce themselves, and there’s no camera eyeing the room—useful if your office is sensitive about cameras in meetings, or if you’d rather not explain your gadgets to every barista on Dizengoff.

How about daylight in a Tel Aviv summer? The HUD’s crisp green contrast is engineered to remain readable in bright conditions, and the sunglasses clip‑on keeps everything legible on mid‑day rides or beach walks. At night, the glow is subtle and easy on the eyes. You choose the HUD angle and brightness in the app to match your preference.

Battery and charging? Expect true all‑day wear with your typical use of navigation, notes, and glanceable alerts; the compact charging case makes topping up simple between home and office. Like any new habit, you’ll find your rhythm in a couple of days.

And the software? The core flows—navigation cues, notes, reminders, teleprompt, and translation—are already dialed for everyday use. Some AI‑driven features are evolving (just like every other product in your stack), but the fundamentals are solid and designed to get better with updates. G1 isn’t trying to replace your phone. It’s here to remove the dozens of micro‑interruptions that make your phone feel indispensable.

If you’ve worn prescription eyewear for years, the upgrade is straightforward: choose your lenses, add your prescription, and pick your finish. If you don’t need a prescription, go non‑prescription today and add it later if life—and eyes—change. Setup is simple: pair to the app, pick what gets through (calendar, reminders, a shortlist of message sources), set your HUD tilt, and you’re done. Start small. Let the G1 surface just the next turn to your meeting or a single to‑do you want to keep top of mind this morning. Add more as it proves itself.

A word to cyclists, scooter riders, and frequent walkers: G1 keeps your head up. That yields a quiet safety dividend in a city where intersections demand attention. Glance, don’t stare. Move, don’t fumble. And for those bilingual days, the on‑the‑spot translation and captioning help you bridge accents, speed, and slang without handing your phone back and forth.

What about durability? Tel Aviv life is… kinetic. The magnesium‑alloy frame and screwless hinge design are built for repeat use, in and out of bags, from WeWork to the shuk. Lens coatings resist scratches, smudges, and dust; the hydrophobic finish makes quick work of the occasional sea breeze splash on the tayelet. These are not “special‑occasion tech glasses.” They’re everyday glasses with a little superpower.

And privacy? G1 is presence‑first. There’s no camera peering at people. No always‑on speakers blasting your notifications. It’s a personal, glanceable layer that respects the room. It helps you look up, not away.

If you’ve read this far, you probably recognize yourself: the Tel Aviv professional toggling languages and neighborhoods, optimizing little things because little things add up to big sanity. G1 won’t add hours to your day, but it will give you back slices of attention in the moments you care about—waiting for a crosswalk, pitching a point, translating a phrase, finding the right turn without stopping the flow.

What you can do next is easy. Choose your frame and lens option. Decide the one or two signals you want to surface first—maybe navigation plus your top three contacts—then build from there. The learning curve is measured in minutes. If it doesn’t earn its place in your life, you’ll know quickly. But if it clicks, you’ll wonder how you tolerated the old stop‑start dance for so long.

Ready for fewer distractions and more signal in the city that never stops? Order your G1 today and feel the difference on your next commute.

I’m in—get me G1 and let me keep my head up in Tel Aviv.
