BARCELONA—Budget device maker Tecno showed off a range of new hardware at Mobile World Congress, but none was as impressive as the Spark Slim.

MWC 2025: What Is It Like to Wear AI-Powered Smart Glasses?

BARCELONA—If you've tried on every iteration of smart glasses shown off at trade shows over the last few years, as I have, you'd be right to feel somewhat pessimistic about the device category.
