A review of the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, highlighting their impressive features, user experience, and potential for the future of smart eyewear. However, the author also expresses concerns about the sustainability of the smart glasses market.
The Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses are among the most interesting, unexpectedly fun, and surprisingly useful wearables I’ve used in 2024. However, as we go into 2025, I’m getting worried about the smart glasses situation. This isn’t the first time I’ve felt like we’re on the cusp of a new wave of cool smart eyewear products, only to be very disappointed by what came next.
Why the Ray-Ban Meta are so good I have used the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses alongside my regular glasses for the majority of the year after choosing to put my prescription lenses in them and opting for the transition versions, so they adapt to different lighting conditions. It means I can wear them inside and out, and in all weather conditions — essential here in the normally dreary U.K. Related It wasn’t long before I’d fallen for the camera and the way it can capture first-person, hands-free stills and video. It’s really creative, and I use it way more than I expected. The Meta AI features took a while to arrive in the U.K., and while I don’t use them all that often — just like all mobile AI features — they work really well when I ask questions that rely on the camera. The audio functionality is fantastic, and even the battery life is good, with the case holding plenty of additional charge. The Ray-Ban partnership means the glasses are well designed, look good on different face shapes, and have a strong retail network so you can try them out before buying. Getting prescription lenses was the right move, but the transitions aren’t very good as they don’t really get dark when you’re driving, which has something to do with the coating on car windscreens. They also take a while to switch back to clear. Without a better alternative, I’d still get them again, though. I really like the Ray-Ban Meta and have recommended them to everyone who inquires about them. I’m excited about them and, in turn, excited about the future they could inspir
