(Image credit - Meta) Meta took the stage at its Connect 2025 event to reveal a fresh lineup of wearable tech. The company introduced its first Ray-Ban Display AR glasses with an in-lens screen and also launched the second-generation Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, delivering big updates over the 2023 model. Here’s more on both newly launched devices. Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) Smart Glasses Announced Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2. (Image credit - Meta) Meta’s second-generation Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses are now official, priced from $379. They improve on the earlier $299 model released in 2023 with several key upgrades. The battery now lasts up to eight hours with typical use, while the new charging case extends power to 48 hours, up from 32 hours. A quick charge feature powers the glasses to 50% in just 20 minutes. The glasses are fitted with a 12MP camera and support 3K Ultra HD video recording at up to 60fps with HDR. Meta confirmed that hyperlapse and slow-motion capture will roll out to all AI glasses later this fall. Storage has been doubled to 32GB, and the glasses carry an IPX4 water resistance rating. A new “conversation focus” feature will improve voice clarity in live environments. This will also come to the first-gen model. However, a live demo of Meta’s AI assistant stumbled when it skipped recipe steps during a cooking test, with the mishap attributed to “bad Wi-Fi.” On the style front, the Gen 2 glasses continue with the Wayfarer, Skyler, and Headliner frames, offering lenses in regular, polarized (+$30), transitions (+$80), and prescription options. Availability The glasses are now available across the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, France, Italy, Spain, Austria, Belgium, Australia, UAE, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Switzerland, and the Netherlands. Launches in Mexico, India, and Brazil are expected soon. Meanwhile, the original Gen 1 glasses remain on sale at $299. Ray-Ban Display AR Glasses with Neural Band Meta Ray-Ban Display. (Image credit - Meta) The star of the event was the debut of the Ray-Ban Display AR glasses, priced at $799. These are Meta’s first consumer AR glasses with a built-in translucent heads-up display (HUD). They ship with the Meta Neural Band, an EMG wristband that enables gesture-based control like swipes and finger movements for typing or navigation. The HUD supports text chats, AI prompts, directions, video calls, media playback, real-time translations, captions, and photo previews. Users can interact using swipes, dictation, emojis, or preset replies. During the demo, the glasses struggled to answer a phone call but handled other tasks smoothly. Mark Zuckerberg showcased Spotify playback, calendar reminders, photo capture, and live subtitles. He also highlighted the extremely high resolution HUD, offering 42 pixels per degree of field of view, compared to 20 pixels per degree on the Meta Quest 3S. The glasses deliver six hours of mixed-use battery life and up to 30 hours with the charging case. The Meta Neural Band lasts 18 hours and carries an IPX7 water resistance rating. Features of the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses includes the following - Meta AI with visual responses Messages & video calling Camera with viewfinder for photos & videos Navigation for walking Live captions & translation Music controls Availability The Ray-Ban Display will launch on September 30 in select US stores, including Best Buy, LensCrafters, Ray-Ban, and Verizon, before expanding to Canada, France, Italy, and the UK in early 2026.
