V03-T5 vs E13 vs K01: Which Smart Glasses Platform Fits Your Brand?
Three proven platforms, three product directions. Compare the camera-led V03-T5 with the two Bluetooth audio platforms, E13 and K01, to choose the right starting point for your OEM or private-label range. Exact specifications, MOQ and certification levels are confirmed on the program datasheet rather than in marketing copy.
The decision in 30 seconds
Camera is the only real fork
All three platforms share open-ear audio, hands-free calls and full private-label readiness. The differentiator is whether first-person capture belongs in the product.

How buyers actually use them
One family, three tiers
Most brands do not choose one model — they architect a range. The V03-T5 anchors the top as the camera hero, the E13 carries everyday volume, and the K01 opens an active or value price band under shared industrial design language.
Shared logo placement, colorway logic, packaging system and Bluetooth pairing identity keep the three tiers recognizably one brand. See how the platforms map to consumer segments in the photo & video, audio & calls and cycling application guides.
Platforms, not just SKUs
Three routes to make a platform yours
Private label — fastest
Branded cosmetics and retail packaging on a proven platform. See the private-label overview.
OEM — configured
Selected feature, lens and accessory configurations around a validated platform. See the OEM route.
ODM — custom
Industrial design and tooling for a frame that does not exist in the reference line, through an EVT/DVT/PVT process. See ODM development.
Many brands do both at once: the V03-T5 as a camera hero with the E13 or K01 filling the everyday and value tiers of the same family. Request the datasheets and an indicative quotation to compare the three on real numbers.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can we order more than one model in the same program?
Yes. Brands commonly combine platforms into a tiered family, for example the camera-equipped V03-T5 as a hero device alongside an E13 or K01 audio model. Shared branding and packaging keep the range visually coherent.
Are datasheets available for all three models?
Yes. Current datasheets with confirmed specifications are shared through the quotation process so your engineering team can evaluate real numbers. Request the datasheets.
Do the models have different MOQs?
MOQ is driven primarily by the customization route (private label, configured OEM or ODM tooling), colorway count and lens mix rather than by model name alone. Indicative tiers are on the MOQ page, and exact figures are quoted per program.
Can we use custom lens tints and frame colors on any model?
Yes. Lens, tint and frame color programs apply across the platforms, subject to minimum quantities per colorway; see the customization overview for the scope.
Can you develop a model that is not listed here?
Yes, through ODM development. If none of the three platforms matches your brief, we can scope a custom model through an EVT/DVT/PVT engineering process with dedicated tooling.
