Meta is launching its first smart glasses with a built-in display, with the new “Meta Ray-Ban Display” glasses launching later this month for $799.
Smart glasses have been growing in functionality and popularity in recent years, especially built on the back of Meta’s Ray-Ban partnership. The Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses have been a smash hit, spawning a sibling earlier this year in the Oakley Meta smart glasses, and now a sequel.
But, those glasses only have a camera, speaker, and a touchpad. Now, Meta is launching its first pair of glasses with a display.
That’s where the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses come into the picture.
With a familiar, but thicker design, the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses can show an interface off to the right side of your view that lets you interact with Meta AI, see a camera viewfinder, control music, and both send and receive messages. The “hi-res” 600x600p display is full-color. You can expect 6 hours of “mixed use” battery life, and up to 30 hours with the included charging case.
To control it, you’ll use Meta’s “Neural Band” which can recognize your hand movements – specifically the muscle signals, not just the movements themselves – to control the interface. Meta will even let you “type” with it. The Neural Band has 18 hours of battery life.
Features of the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses will include:
- Meta AI with visual responses
- Messages & video calling
- Camera with viewfinder for photos & videos
- Navigation for walking
- Live captions & translation
- Music controls
Meta explains:
Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses are designed to help you look up and stay present. With a quick glance at the in-lens display, you can check messages, preview photos, see translations, get help from Meta AI, and more — all without needing to pull out your phone. It’s technology that keeps you tuned in to the world around you, not distracted from it.
This breakthrough category of AI glasses comes with a full-color, high-resolution display that’s there when you want it — and gone when you don’t. The display is placed off to the side, so it doesn’t obstruct your view. And it isn’t on all the time — it’s designed for short interactions that you’re always in control of. This isn’t about strapping a phone to your face. It’s about helping you quickly accomplish some of your everyday tasks without breaking your flow.
Meta says Ray-Ban Display glasses will go on sale starting on September 30 – less than two weeks from now. They’ll cost $799 for the duo of the glasses and the Neural Band.
But there’s a catch.
While you will be able to go buy them, you can’t do so online. Meta will be selling these exclusively in-store starting in the US. You’ll be able to find Ray-Ban Display at “limited” stores including Best Buy, LensCrafters, Sunglass Hut, and of course…
