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

Sure, assuming the glasses' UI would let you control audio being piped to the earbuds. But I think Google Glass had bone conducting speakers that weren't heavy or power hungry. Maybe there's a good reason they left speakers off the G1 that I'm not considering.
