So far, I really love these Meta glasses. They work really well taking pictures and videos. Also the sound whether I’m on the phone talking or listening to music is really very nice. And everyone I talk to over the phone says they hear me fine, nice and clear. All I have to do is say hey Meta, give him a command and he gets me the answers or makes the phone calls, etc. I’m using the John Cena voice, so much fun! I like how the lenses change to a darker amber color when I go out in the sun and they fit me very well. The photos attached were taken with Meta!

The POV photos and videos that you are able to take with this are amazing. The quality of the camera is great. You can only record videos for 60 seconds at a time but this has felt like enough to capture a moment when using. Battery life is pretty good and usually lasts me the entire time of an event if I begin using them when it starts. I took them to an nba game and they lasted the whole time with 20 percent left on the battery and I took many videos with them throughout the event. They are rated to last for 4 hours but the case has a built in battery and also has lot of extra charge for your glasses. The glasses charge very fast in the case. The sound is pretty good and can get pretty loud. You are able to play audio or music from any app since the glasses are connected via bluetooth like any other headphones. Music starts and stops when you put on or take off the glasses just like AirPods and reconnects almost immediately.

First, I want to start of by saying Lucas is an amazing worker here. He was patient with me learning about the glasses, trying them on, and making sure I got exactly what I was looking for. There was a total of 3 times were we ended up at the register and walked back to the glasses stand. As someone who studies body language for a living, I was being aware of his so that I could get a gage of the vibe. He was more than pleasant enough to bring us back and make sure that I was 100% with my purchase. He also did his best to get us to sign up for a credit card, Although I was denied, my boyfriend was sold and has made plans to head back to create one. I am very grateful that I had Lucas there to help me ! He made me feel very comfortable and even though I was not going into the store to buy at that moment, he convinced me to buy it ! I have to add, as a business owner of 2 Organizations, this is the type of attitude and focus I love in employees ! He deserves some type of promotion or raise. He knows what he is doing !

I’m not one for writing reviews but every once in a while I find a product worthy of praise. These RayBan Meta sunglasses are really great. I’m over 60 and have always loved gadgets and these are the ultimate. I wear them every morning on my walk while listing to music or talking on the phone. I have transition lenses so I can wear them inside or outside in foggy or sunny weather. The batter usage is par excellence, I rarely have to charge the case, I do keep the glass’s in the case when I’m not wearing them so they are always ready to go.
The sound element on both phone calls and music is great without blocking out sounds around me. I love taking pictures and videos. It’s really convenient and the quality is pretty darn good, I’m having a great time with these glass’s and highly recommend them for both fun and hands free convenience. I prefer to use them at home over my earbuds which always bother me after a short time, however with the glass’s I can forget I’m wearing them until I want to make or answer a phone call or listen to and send messages. So go get yourself a pair, the price is right and they work great

I purchased this item to help with my content flow. I own cameras from a high end to smaller ones. I bought to try it out since I never had any wearable teach. But I fell it love with it. I use it all the time it captures moments that can get away. I use to hear music, I use it to translate languages, to give me more information on a product, to find a healthy place to eat, to learn about where technology is going and to look great eating out
Thank you so much for your five star review and your feedback!
It is wonderful to hear you are having a lot of fun with your Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses and we completely agree- there are endless possibilities for their use!
It sounds like you're thoroughly taking advantage of their potential already- from capturing media, acquiring knowledge, listening to music and plenty more-this is absolutely amazing!
Wishing you many hours of fun ahead and thank you once again!

Love them for the quality and ease to capture everything in the moment. I’ve been using them mostly for finishing right now. Captured some fun moments! Something I don’t like is the battery doesn’t last long if you’re using them. Still figuring them out but so far I really like them.

These glasses are amazingly fun! I was genuinely delighted with my pair of Ray-Ban meta glasses . Meta AI is always available to answer questions. For instance, in a waiting room the other day, I wanted to vape. I thought second-hand vape clouds were harmless water. After consulting my handy meta AI, I was to ascertain that I was wrong about second hand and I was able to make the correct decision and take my vape outside!

Extremely comfortable and addictive sunglasses

I've been wanting to try these sunglasses out for some time. I'm so glad that Ray-Ban has decided to push their eyeware into this technology. They are respected worldwide for their unique and timeless styles and it was a natural step to go one step further and offer smart glasses. The Ray-Ban Meta sunglasses are currently available in two different styles, the classic Wayfarer and the Headliner. I chose the Headliner in black with green lenses because of the more rounded shape. I love the dark green lens color and these are polarized which is an added bonus. Each of these styles is available in different color options. If you wear prescription lenses, you can replace the standard lenses with prescription ones.
These sunglasses are very full featured and offer a lot in the way you can interact with them and use them on a daily basis. The glasses themselves have a very comfortable fit and are surprisingly very lightweight. I expected with all the technology crammed into them that they would be heavy, but that's not the case at all. They feel as light as their standard sunglasses do. They have three main features; camera, audio and Meta AI. This is my first pair of smart sunglasses so I wasn't really sure which options I would use the most. They all have benefits and I found that I used all of them pretty equally. I've always found Ray-Ban sunglasses to be some of the most comfortable glasses I've ever worn and these are certainly no different. They stay in place without having to constantly adjust them or push them up. They just fit great.
Camera and Video
The glasses come standard with an HD camera. It has 12MP resolution and can be used for photos and video. The photos I took are 3024x4032 and took up just under 2MB of space each. Videos are shot at 1440x1920 @ 30fps. The glasses themselves have 32GB of storage, so you have plenty of space onboard before you need to download your photos and videos. I chose the option to Auto-Import the media to my phone so that the photos I take will show up in my phone's Gallery. It does this when the glasses are powered on and the arms are folded, or when they're sitting the case. I found the video to be smooth and clear. It looked just as good as the photos I took. The photo quality is really nice. Very sharp with rich deep colors. To take a photo, just press once on the button on top of the right arm. To take video, press and hold a bit longer. Pressing again will stop the video, or it will keep recording as long of a video as you've set up in the options. You can live stream to your favorite social media if you're so inclined. I personally am not, and if you're as concerned as I am about my social media privacy, it seems that you can be as private as you want to be. You will of course need to give the app itself certain permissions in order for it to function optimally, but in most cases you can choose to not share any information with Meta. It's nice to know that the option is there to keep your privacy. I don't have any complaints about the camera but I will say, there are no camera “settings” to alter the way the photos and videos are taken. You can't take landscape orientation photos for example. This is a bit disappointing, and everything you shoot will be in portrait mode.
Audio
So the speakers are very directional and located on the under side of each arm pointing at your ears. For phone calls or notifications, they sound just fine and give you a natural stereo effect. Using the Meta voice assistant likewise sounds very good. You can use them to play music, but the audio experience in terms of sound quality is not great. Music sounds “ok” up to a certain volume level, but after that the sound gets increasingly tinny and irritating. Given the size of the tiny speakers, I'm in no way surprised, but I had higher expectations than what they are capable of delivering. I didn't expect audiophile quality in any way, but I at least thought I would be able to enjoy music at a reasonable volume level. I played music with different apps and various EQ settings, both mp3 and flac recordings and I could never get the audio to sound great. As an additional feature and if you enjoy Spotify (as I do), you can tap and hold on the right arm to play Spotify Tap. This is pretty cool if you just want to listen to something. This does however need you to have Spotify already running on your phone. It can be in the background, but it needs to be running and you need to be logged into your Spotify account, so it takes a bit of pre-planning. For me, I found that I used this feature more than I thought I would. You can double-tap the right arm to go to the next track, or slide your finger forward or back to adjust the volume level. The more I used the glasses for audio, I got used to their sound quality and just accepted it for what it was.
Meta AI
I've never used Meta AI but if you've used things like Google assistant or Siri, you're familiar with this type of AI. To use this feature you really need to enable the hands free voice command option so you can ask for information. Once that's done, all you need to do is say “hey Meta” and you'll hear a chime prompting you for your audio input. You can ask questions or even say “take a photo”. The voice commands are pretty cool and I did have very good luck with the AI understanding my voice thanks to the five mic locations in the glasses. You can choose the tone qualities of your assistants voice so that it sounds pleasing to you, and there are a bunch of different voice qualities to choose from. In the app settings you can choose whether your interactions with the AI are recorded, or if it shows you a transcript of your conversations, but from what I've seen, the transcript is very one sided, only showing me what I asked and not what the AI answered. This is obviously a Meta gripe and not a Ray-Ban one. It would be nice if the Meta app would let you connect the texting app of your choice but it only offers Facebook Messenger which I don't use. Definitely some room for improvement on the Meta side of things.
Miscellaneous
One of the nice things that's included with these glasses is the classic Ray-Ban case. If you've ever owned a pair of Ray-Bans, you will recognize it immediately. This particular case has been modified to include a charging system and battery. Ray-Ban says up to four hours of battery time on the glasses themselves and up to 36 hours of charge time on the case. I haven't actually timed it but it seems reasonable from my experience. All you need to do to charge your sunglasses is put them back in the case. The case has an indicator LED inside the “snap” closure that gives you an idea of where you stand with your charge. The glasses will also tell you when you put them on, how much charge percentage you have. You can charge the case itself with the USB-C port on the bottom (although you need to use your own charging cable because they don't give you one). I like a lot of the features these sunglasses come with, the touch gesture controls, voice control, comfortable fit, HD photo and video the Meta AI and the ability to receive and make calls on them. While the music playback feature was not as good as I'd hoped, I'm confident that they will work to improve this feature. Overall, I really enjoy using them. Everything I tried worked perfectly the first time without incident which says a lot about the design and implementation of all the features. These glasses will easily become something I depend on using. I used them for yard work and walks so far. Can't wait to use them on a hike. Really fun pair of full featured sunglasses with fit, style and comfort still at the top. Nice job Ray-Ban!
