The new Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses come with improved cameras, audio, and more than 150 different custom combinations of frames and lenses. New Ray-Ban Stories smart glasses are now available for pre-order. Let’s go through this article and explore Ray-Ban Meta AI Glasses Prices and how to order them.
What’s New?
Ray-Ban launched the smart glasses that come with over 150 styles and the custom combinations are crazy good. But, if you are looking for what is really new in these next-generation Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses, the answer is not just the stylish frames but the ability to record spatial audio. The glasses are super sensitive to voice commands.
However, speakers are open-style and come with clips to attach to your shirt. But, Meta has done a commendable job with audio levels and bass. True winner! It is better than Ray-Ban Stories smart glasses that were launched previously.
Like before, the navigation on the glass arm is available, only this time the touchpad is bigger and better. A capture button is also added on the edge of the frame that can launch the live stream.
With Ray Ban Meta Smart glasses you can stream live on Facebook and Instagram for as long as 30 minutes! If you are recording live on your phone and suddenly wish to go hands-free, you just need to tap the switch on the glass and your glasses will start recording again!
Frames are light and less chunky looking than any previous models. Moreover, it has IPX4 water resistance! Charging lasts 4 hours and the leather case comes with the capacity of 32 hours more, which is recharging the glasses for 8 times more!
Ray-Ban Meta AI Glasses, Not AR Glasses
Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses are the best in almost every way, except for one thing! These smart glasses are AI glasses and not AR glasses. Many people are taking it in the wrong senses. However, AI glasses do not have the in-built AR feature.
According to Meta, “These are designed to be all-day glasses”! In simple words, Ray Ban Meta Smart glasses can be costumed for prescription glasses, blue-blocking lenses, and transition lenses. So, if you are looking for a Ray-Ban meta smart glasses prescription feature; yes, this is available!
However, it is expected that Mark Zuckerberg is leaning on Quest 3 to introduce AR in Meta glasses as he previously mentioned that Meta is working on ‘true AR glasses’.
