New models have prescriptions in mind for people who actually still need help seeing.
Meta has two new pairs of AI smart glasses that are geared toward a thing that glasses have been doing for quite a while—helping you see. Theare more focused on people who wear prescription lenses and also come in new styles that differentiate them from existing Ray-Ban-branded smart glasses.
While the Blayzer is what Meta calls a “sleek rectangular frame” and comes in standard and large sizes, the Scriber has a more rounded frame. These frames are slimmer than Meta’s existing AI glasses styles such as the Wayfarer, Headliner, and Skyler. According to Meta, both pairs “support nearly all prescriptions” and come with changeable nose pads and adjustable temple tips. Styles include matte black, transparent black, and transparent dark olive, but also come in “seasonal colors” like transparent “Matte Ice Grey” and transparent “Stone Beige.” One thing that’s a little bit different from the previous Ray-Ban lineup is that the carrying/charging case is a dark brown instead of the light brown of previous generations.Outside of a different look and more prescription lens compatibility, Meta’s new Blayzer Optics and Scriber Optics are basically the same AI glasses that the company has been selling, with the same hardware and features, including a 12-megapixel camera, speakers, 8 hours of battery, built-in Meta AI, and computer vision. Whether Meta plans to expand features to cater more to people with lower vision is anyone’s guess, but they’re more poised to do so now. Both pairs of smart glasses are available for preorder starting today from Meta.com and Meta retail partners in the U.S., as well as “select international markets” starting April 14. Pricing for both pairs starts at $499.Anker Prime Docking Station Hits Its Lowest Price as Amazon’s Spring Sale Winds Down Google TV Streamer 4K Drops to an All-Time Low, Final Hours in Amazon Spring Sale to Turn Any TV Smart on a BudgetSamsung Bespoke AI Refrigerator Wants to Take the Stress Out of the KitchenSmart Glasses Now Have One of the Vision Pro’s Best FeaturesMeta Lays Off 700 in Pivot From Metaverse to AI
