Smart Glasses Recalled After Posing Burn Risk
The company has received 10 overheating reports and is offering a free online software update to fix the burn hazard.
- INMO is recalling Air3 smart glasses after the Consumer Product Safety Commission warned the left temple "can overheat during extended use, posing a risk of serious injury or death due to burn hazard."
- Ten reports of users experiencing a "burning sensation to the face and the left side of the ear" prompted the recall, an issue persisting for seven months despite the company including a protective sleeve.
- The glasses were sold through Amazon, the INMO website, and Kickstarter between December 2025 and August 2026, priced from $900 to $1,300, with 1,643 units in the US and 120 in Canada.
- Owners should stop using the Air3 immediately and contact INMO to receive a free software update, which the company is providing without requiring hardware returns to remedy the overheating issue.
- While the Consumer Product Safety Commission officially initiated the recall, the Air3 was designed for media streaming and translation; the recall notice does not specify the exact overheating cause.
