DPVR to Launch Two New DPVR G4 Colors in Japan
DPVR is tying a color refresh to a creator seeding program that asks for no hardware back, which is a cheaper way to gather fit and usability feedback than a retail launch event.

DPVR plans to release two new frame colors for its DPVR G4 AI smart glasses in Japan. G4 Amber Glow, a brown tortoiseshell pattern, is scheduled for late October 2026. G4 Stellar Blue, a blue tortoiseshell pattern, is scheduled for late December 2026. Ahead of those releases, DPVR will run the G4 Creator Preview Program from late September 2026. The program gives media personnel and creators 10 units each of G4 Frost Crystal, a clear color, and G4 Shadow Black, a black-based color, for 20 units total, free of charge with no return required. Participants are expected to post about the glasses on social media in their own formats, covering uses such as photo and video shooting, music playback, AI functions, and everyday coordination. DPVR says it will use participant feedback on fit, operability, and design in future product development and its Japan market plans. The DPVR G4 weighs about 42g, carries an approximately 8-megapixel camera, records 1080p/30fps video, and holds 32GB of internal storage.
The frames and temples use TR90 material. Photos and videos transfer over Wi-Fi to a dedicated app called DPVR Glasses, and the glasses carry dual speakers and dual microphones for music playback and Bluetooth calls. Noise reduction works during calls. Playback runs up to about 7 hours and Bluetooth calls up to about 6.5 hours.
The AI side covers image recognition, conversation, and translation in 26 languages. The voice assistant wakes by saying "Hey Sunny" or by pressing a physical button on the device. DPVR notes the listed specifications are as of development and may change before release, and that usage time varies with environment, signal conditions, volume, and how often you shoot.
DPVR describes itself as an XR device maker that develops and manufactures VR headsets and AI smart glasses, supplying devices and solutions for education, entertainment, and business training. The Japan arm runs an X account at DpvrJapan and sells through an Amazon.co.jp product page.
Both new colors are tortoiseshell patterns. Amber Glow is built on warm brown and DPVR says the pattern recalls classic eyewear, while Stellar Blue uses shades of blue as an outfit accent. The two program colors, Frost Crystal and Shadow Black, are exclusive to the Creator Preview Program and are not among the colors headed to retail.
