The connector to the side frame cracks very easily when removing it from the case, otherwise it’s a great product! Battery is much better then the first gen.

Ray-Ban - Meta Smart Skyler Bluetooth Audio Glasses - Matte Black/Polarized Gradient Graphite
Summary:
Meow! Comfortable, and feature packed.
Use:
These glasses are great. They fit well. They look great. They protect my eyes, and they entertain me while I'm out for a stroll with my dogs or going for a little ride on the bike or scooter. Wear them while driving works fine, too, as they fit nice and snug. The audio doesn't work well due to the air flow, but I leave them on so that I can take a picture if I need to of things surrounding me (like when I was on a recent visit to Austin and slowly driving through downtown). The Ray-Ban and Meta collaboration is paying off - these glasses are getting cooler and cooler and more functional with each generation. Take a look below for itemized pros and cons.
Pros:
* Fit. These units fit nice and snug. They are comfortable to wear for moderate periods of time.
* Look. Ray Ban did something different and released a new look. The Skyler have a cat-eyed look to them. Like other models, the privacy light is present, but subdued and relatively inconspicuous. The chalky gray is different and cinnamon gradient lenses are unique. Though I'll need to get them fitted for prescription lenses.
* Weight. This unit feels okay. They do rest nicely on the bridge of my nose. An hour or so here an there and I haven't noticed any discomfort I don't feel with any other pair of glasses, dumb or smart.
* Build. This unit is similar to other models in the line-up. The arms are a bit stiff, which I like, and it feels well made.
* Sleek. The controls have a barely noticeable profile typical for this series and the speakers are well hidden.
* Case/ Battery. The carrying case is also the charging case. It has its own battery to charge the glasses while on the go. The case is made to resemble a more classic leather carrying case. The power/charging/pairing LED is thoughtfully present on the magnetic clasp that secures the case closed. The USB-C charging port is on the bottom and the Bluetooth pairing button tucked away in the back. The magnetic clasp has excellent strength and unlikely to open due to a drop. The case itself has two retractable prongs that firmly grip the glasses when placed inside. In fact, maybe too snug! But these ensure that the glasses are making the proper and contact with the charging terminals which are on the bottom side of the nose rest. They also ensure the glasses won't fall out of the case should the clasp come undone during a drop.
* Image and Video Quality. These glasses capture awesome pictures and videos. It comes equipped with 32GB of storage and has the same 12 megapixels as the iPhone Pro Max 12 and 13. Images are capture at default portrait 3024x4032. Videos are remarkably stable and filmed at vertical default at 1440x1920 @ 30 FPS. The video clips can be configured to record up to 1-minute continuous footage. Compared to the first generation in this series, the Stories, the Skyler's low light picture taking capabilities is stunning. They work similar to how phones deal with low light, except without the dramatic pause/focusing. I've included some examples of low-light pictures with the Stories vs these Skyler.
* Audio. The audio of these glasses is crisp and there is a nice boom to the music. Walking the dogs with these glasses is comfortable. They allow me to be aware of my surroundings, as well.
* (Voice) Controls. Spotify Tap is a cool feature that automatically plays songs based on previous listening sessions - with just a (configurable) long tap of the touchpad. The "Hey Meta" commands are quick to respond and make common tasks a breeze. New AI enabled features allow you to ask things like, "what am I looking at?" The new assistant will respond with answers like "you are looking at a room with a coffee table, an assortment of books on the table, a large TV on the wall, and dogs."
* Privacy. A departure from the original OG release, this unit features a privacy LED ring that surrounds the camera. It isn't obnoxious, but it is there and allows potential subjects to know that they're "live and on the air."
* UV protection. These units are equipped with UV-A and UV-B protective coating for your eyes. You can customize this if you order prescription lenses for your frames. Transition lenses? Yes, please.
* App. The app paired quite nicely with the glasses. Wi-Fi enabled synchronization of images and videos from the glasses is a breeze with the app. In fact, you no longer need to have the app open for the sync to happen if the glasses are powered, in their charger, and the option enabled. I tried unpairing/repairing a few times and the process is pretty straight-forward, too.
Cons:
* Privacy. We have phones, we have home security cameras, we have retail cameras, we even have traffic, drone, and satellite cameras. I don't think it is reasonable to expect any level of privacy while out in public. Therefore, I think the privacy LED should be configurable with the expressed consent of the wearer (i.e. they accept responsibility for any privacy breaches that become an issue).
* Battery. I have 0 issues with the battery other than they are advertised to run up to 4 hours with a single charge (36 hours with fully charged case). I found that going for a slow 2 mile walk of about an hour with volume at high-level, snapping a few photos, and a few video clips will knock battery down to about 60%. Perhaps at more moderate volumes, and picture/video activities I could get closer to that "up to" 4 hours on a single charge. I usually wear them 15, 30, 45 minutes at a time and I place them in their case in between uses. I don't think this will be an issue for me.

The first thing I noticed was the build quality of these glasses. They have a certain feel and heft that screams superior build quality, but they aren’t too bulky or heavy to wear. The fit is excellent and snug to my head, and overall, I do enjoy the look and love the color. The lenses aren’t too dark, but dark enough to where I feel like I am getting some light protection during sunny days.
The case also serves as a charger that charges the glasses when you place them into it. There is a light on the outside of the case that shows you power levels at a glance, which is a nice touch by Ray-Ban.
The glasses themselves are capable to video and taking pictures, which look really good! The videos are stable and pictures shoot at 12MP. Overall, I have been EXTREMELY impressed with both video and picture quality on these glasses. Having the ability to capture or record at the drop of a hat opens up a world of possibilities that were not available to me with a regular phone camera (the ease and quickness of use).
The audio on these glasses is also very good. I have been listening to my audio books at about half to a little less than half volume, and it's loud enough for me but does not leak out and bother those around me. Very, very impressed.
The AI on these, for me, is the most impressive feature. A simple “Hey, Meta, what am I looking at?” and within seconds, the glasses are able to correctly identify what I am looking at. The quickness and accuracy of the AI on these things is crazy impressive—hats off to Meta for the AI implementation on these glasses. The sky is the limit on these.
I do wish the battery was a little better. Within an hour of using it for audiobooks, I have around 50-60% left. It's not the worst thing in the world; it's just a little gripe.
Overall, I have been very happy and impressed with these Ray-Ban Meta glasses. The AI is very impressive, the audio quality is excellent, and the video/image quality is on par with phone cameras. Along with an extremely functional APP, these are the smart glasses to get!

I own a couple tattoo shops and I thought these would be great to video while I Tattoo. Unfortunately even with a job that doesn’t require much movement or hard labor they didn’t hold up. Three pairs and they all short-circuited or something . Super bummer I was really excited about them but they just didn’t work

Very poorly built product. Bought it as a gift for my wife and it fell apart just after the return period, with no warranty support from Ray Ban. The arm mechanism detached and they fell off her face and stopped working.

Bought this glasses worked well until one week past its warranty. The cover from the right fell off. I crazy glued it back and lost the microphone ability. I liked the glasses but still not ready for prime time.

Upon opening the box, I immediately noticed the quality of the case. The same thing goes for the glasses, which are made of high-quality plastic and have a nice gloss. I am not sure about the beige-gray color -yet. Although it is pleasant to the eye for some, I personally would go for the black ones instead. Again, this is highly subjective. The glass tint is mild but still does a decent job in sunny conditions. Being mostly plastic, they are quite light, and they fit snugly. After wearing them for 2 hours straight for the first time, I did feel a bit of soreness above my ears after taking them off. This discomfort may lessen as I get used to them and fitting may vary depending on your head shape or size.
The case doubles as a charger via USB-C. Sadly, there is no wireless charging support. The battery is decent, lasting more than 3 hours with heavy use. The case adds 32 hours.
Setting up the glasses takes some time and a bit of work. Pairing is straight forward as they are Bluetooth. Also, you must have an account or sign up for one for the glasses to work properly, so keep that in mind if you’re uncomfortable with social media.
Once the glasses were set up, I was rather impressed by the experience. When it comes to audio, they are better than expected. The bass may not be as impactful as I’d like, but the sound was still warm for the most part. The midrange was full, and the treble was not harsh at all. There is fantastic channel separation, providing a pseudo-3-D impression. For those who know, they sounded like bone induction headsets –without the tickles. The audio can get loud, which makes sound leakage quite noticeable. They are great for ambient awareness, but keep in mind that they are “open” speakers, so it can be difficult to hear in very loud environments. Overall, I had a pleasant experience –especially with audiobooks and podcasts.
The call quality also was unexpectedly good. I was able to hear and be heard clearly. It almost seemed like the person was right next to me, albeit sounding slightly digital.
These glasses use Meta AI as a digital assistance. It’s quite accurate in answering typical questions and searches. But what’s impressive is the AI’s ability to identify objects (car make-model, shoe brands, etc.), landmarks, and even certain people like celebrities. I must have spent more than 2 hours asking Meta “look and tell me what this is” and things like that on the first try.
The biggest attraction to me was the ability to take pictures and video. The picture quality is very, very good. The same goes for video. It looks crisp and vivid. The sound being recorded is binaural and picks up quite nicely. For privacy purposes, the camera has a light that goes on when taking a picture or filming, so be careful as some people don’t like to be filmed/photographed. When ready, the recording or picture can be transferred to the phone and deleted from the glasses. By the way, there is 32GB of on-board storage. You can take pictures by pressing a button on the right side or by telling the AI assistant. I am a bit disappointed that the content can only be taken in vertical mode and up to 60 seconds, although it is perfect for social media-sharing and live casts, which is super easy to do.
In the end, I was not expecting to be so enthralled and entertained by these glasses. They spike my curiosity and have quite a lot of utility and functionality –all while looking stylish.

I have been the owner of some audio sunglasses which I use often and like. They are more or less mainstream in look and design, but with the added extra of having that incredible sound via Bluetooth. The Meta Ray Ban's sort of enhance that, but with some added quirks. First of all, the case that comes with the sunglasses is incredible. It is of high quality, look and feel. The charging integration is well thought out and the little light by the clasp does make it all seem more premium. It is a bit of a fight to remove the glasses from the case, as it's held in place for charging, by magnets. It does eventually disconnect and seems to get easier over time. The glasses are very comfortable, and the sound is amazing. I do get some looks as I hold a conversation through my glasses. The ability to record video and snap pictures is fun and a definite added feature. I have ended up using this for all sorts of uses, including everything I take would normally use my phone to take pictures. It's so much nicer to just look and snap or record video while walking and not holding the phone. I'm glad my phone is 1tb as I can see myself talking all sorts of pictures on the fly. The quality is good and the touch function on the side of the glasses work well. A charge lasts a long time as I haven't run down the batteries through a whole day of use.
Now for my wish list/ quirks. The glasses could be more main stream in look, color and options. The pair I got were medium lenses, not bad but would have preferred polarized. The shape and color (beige wingtips) are not my number one preferences, a bit too feminine for me! Funny, but I still have been using them for the utility I get from the camera and sound. I looked on Raybans website and there are some more preferential models with better lenses, but not in stock.
All in all, I like these glasses and features. Color style and shape not withstanding, the mechanics are amazing and useful. All with the added quality of the sound and video. It was also clearly well designed, as the case and charging is very intuitive and functional.

Ray-Ban Meta - Skyler Smart Glasses with Meta Ai, Audio, Photo, Video Compatibility - Pink Lenses - Shiny Chalky Gray
Ray-Ban Meta - Skyler Smart Glasses are an update of the first Ra-Ban Meta glasses. First, let's get into some Tech specifications.
The camera is a 12 MP ultra-wide, and it has image framing/resolution: Portrait default / 3024 X 4032 pixels. The Video is: Vertical default / 1440 x 1920 pixels at 30 fps. The glasses have Two custom built in open ear speakers. The microphones are a Custom 5Mic array with 2 in the left arm, 2 in the right arm, and one near the nose pad. According to Ray-Ban the loudness and bass are 76.1dB(C), 50% louder and 2x more bass (vs. Ray-Ban Stories). It comes equipped with 32GB of flash storage and has the capacity of 100+ videos of 30 seconds in length and 500= photos (3 frame burst). For connectivity, it is WiFi 6 Certified and uses Bluetooth 5.2. It is compatible with both iOS 14.2 and above and Android 10 and above. The battery in the glasses has up to a 4 hour run time on a single charge, depending on the options being used. The charger case is capable of charging up to 36 hours. The frame weight is approximately 1.75 ounces. In the box are the Glasses, charging case, cleaning cloth, and reference guide. A USB-C charging cable and charging brick are not included.
Some things are good, some things great, and some things need improvement.
I have been testing various aspects of the Meta Ray Ban glasses for the past week. The glasses are an excellent quality, nice appearance and the beige color (Shiny Chalky Gray frames ) of the frames looks very nice on my wife's face and is complimentary against her skin. The lenses are a gradient light brown hue( Ray-Ban calls them Gradient Pink) which makes them easy to see things in low light. The case is high quality and serves as the charging station for the glasses. The case uses a USB-C charging cord to provide the glasses with about in my tests about 32 hours of charging. The inside of the case has the connection point for the nose piece where the glasses rest to charge them. The glasses have about a 4 hour charge dependent on if it is set up to constantly monitor for "Hey Meta" which cuts down battery life. The case has an led indicator to provide the status of the charging. This same light is used to indicate that the glasses have synced with your phone. There is a button on the bottom of the case you use to sync the phone and glasses.
Setting up the phone is not that easy. Syncing the glasses to the phone is pretty straight forward using Bluetooth. The glasses are dependent on your phone and the Meta View app. To finish setting up the glasses you need to go through the set-up tutorial in the app. Unfortunately, the app does not cover everything you can do with the glasses. You need to access this information from the meta.com help section for smart glasses. This was where I found out how to use the Meta AI to take a picture, make a phone call, send a message, play music, ask what am I seeing or random questions. You can ask the Meta to translate English to French and French to English, but this is limited to 4 languages (French, Italian, German and Spanish. When you ask it to translate the phrases have to be pretty short, and it cannot handle a long sentence The instructions included with the glasses were such small print they were illegible and Ray-Ban could really use some good graphic design to make the pamflet useful.
Taking photos and videos is pretty simple, either use Meta AI command or use the button on the top of the right arm of the glasses. The photos are decent indoors under low light but not that great.
Outdoors the quality compares to my Android phone. The photo capture is limited to one size and does not have the capability to zoom in or zoom out. The aspect ratio is static being a vertical orientation
The video capture is better quality under the same low light conditions. You use the same button on the top of the arm to capture Video, just hold it down to begin recording. You can set up the time to be 15-30-60 seconds for automatic capture or just double click the button on the arm to stop recording. This does however limit to length of any video to a maximum of 60 seconds. The video is fine in the app but when you download it the video is in a format that isn't native to Windows 10 or Windows 11 based computers and you would need a special Codec. The video editing program I use could see the Video – but the computer could not play it, using any of the 3 video players I have installed natively with Windows.
I found the glasses quite useful in texting or calling people on my phone list. When I asked Meta AI to text a friend named Sam – it asked me if I wanted Sam or Shaun – rather than giving me the wrong person. Meta was even able to distinguish an unusual name which was impressive. Calling on the glasses was quite easy – both in initialing the call and receiving one. I could hear people clearly and they had no problem hearing me.
To use the glasses to listen to music, you need to have an app running on your phone. This was also easy to hear, and there was a control on the right arm of the glasses, where you slid your finger forward or backward to control the volume level. This makes listening to music much more pleasant than using earbuds – I always found earbuds uncomfortable to use. Remember that the sound is broadcast on open-ear speakers so anyone in your vicinity can hear everything. When using the phone, this is natural if you use the speaker phone option, but listening to music could be a distraction or a disturbance for other people.
Only having a water-resistant rating could be a major problem if you are caught in heavy rain and it is game over if you ever drop them in any water.
It is not very noticeable for the onlooker to tell that you have a set of glasses that include Meta or a camera even though using the camera feature sets of a white LED.
Overall the glasses are fun to use and I do like using the phone call/messaging options. They could use better instructions included with the packaging, and improving on low-light photography would be nice. I would also like to see and option to change the LED color of the camera use alert which would be easy since multi-color micro LED's are readily available. I also feel that this is a pretty costly option for just sunglasses and it does restrict your in-door viewing to a degree though this set of lenses are not heavily tinted. I think I will go with some prescription transition lenses to alleviate this problem and make this more functional for my wife's use. And the tough one is to increase battery life it is an inconvenience for only 4hr run time. It is a plus that they charge from the case pretty quickly, only requiring 20 minutes to charge back up.

Just picked up a pair of Meta smart glasses and I’m genuinely impressed! The audio is crystal clear, and the built-in assistant feels like something out of the future. Calls, music, and even hands-free photos—it’s like having a personal assistant on my face (in the best way possible). Super lightweight, stylish, and surprisingly comfortable for all-day wear. Didn’t think I’d use the features as much as I do, but now I can’t go a day without them. Total game changer—10/10!
Thank you for your thoughtful review. We're delighted to hear that your Meta smart glasses have exceeded expectations. It’s wonderful to know the seamless integration of features and design has enhanced your daily routine.

I just tried out the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler sunglasses, and they are absolutely amazing! As soon as I opened the packaging, I could tell how beautiful and well-made they were. The sunglasses come in a hardshell leather case with a magnetic clip, which makes them more secure. They quickly became my favorite. The fit was perfect, and the shiny, chalky gray frame was a great choice.
After downloading the app, I was all set. The app was straightforward to understand and provided good information on using the glasses. Just make sure to give the Meta glasses full access to your contacts and certain apps so you can take full advantage of all the features. One thing to note is that they do not come with a charging cable (USB-C), which is disappointing considering the price point.
The camera takes really good pictures. I love that I can quickly capture special moments with great quality. These glasses are perfect for vlogging, especially if you're hesitant to have your camera out in public. They are so low-key that no one will even know you are recording or taking pictures. I plan on using them to capture my day-to-day activities with my kids.
Video recording is also great, although you can only record in 15, 30, or 60-second time frames. This works perfectly for capturing short videos. Once you have selected the photos and videos you want, they are transferred to your Meta app and then imported to your phone.
The speakers sit nicely above your ear. I've found myself wearing the glasses more than my actual earbuds lately! The music flows so smoothly and has a clear and crisp sound.
These glasses also work for hands-free calling, and the connectivity is great. Like any other smart device, the Ray Ban Meta glasses have the capability to answer questions and identify objects around you.
Once available, I plan on changing the lens; these come with a cinnamon pink lens although I love them; I want to have a clear lens as well so I can wear them to work and be able to listen to music on the low low! ( yes I'm sneaky like that) You can also get your prescription lenses.
They are super cool and unique, and I recommend them 100%.

My first pair of meta glasses and I just love them .. so far so good the only issue but not really a big issue is the battery life but as long as the case is charged I can go a full day with them
We’re thrilled to hear you’re loving your first pair of Ray-Ban Meta Skyler (Gen 1) glasses! It’s great to know they’re fitting seamlessly into your day.
We appreciate your feedback on battery life, keeping the case charged is definitely the best way to stay powered up all day.

These glasses are incredible. The pictures and video it takes are basically on par with my new phone. They are sharp and colorful and go straight to boh your Meta app and your camera gallery. You can also immediately upload images to any Instagram Whatsapp, Messenger, Facebook or other share services with one-touch of a button. You can Livestream through them as well, which is super convenient if you like to do that. The AI features are great. Just say "hey Meta" and ask the glasses a question in general or a question about what you're looking at. The AI can give you suggestions and information based on your location, too. It's really kind of crazy what it can do!
Using them to make calls is great, as well. The voices are clear and you also sound clear to the person on the other end of the call. You can set the glasses up for one-touch Spotify connection and then use the glasses to control the volume and play next and pause just by using the side panel of the glasses. Music apps come in crystal clear. The sound is as good as my headphones or earbuds. People next to you can't hear it, but it sounds great to you. You can control the volume and next song function just like with Spotify.
The case is sturdy and serves as the charger. The glasses hold a charge really well. The construction of them seems to be very high-quality. I'm not a huge fan of the style, but I think a lot of people will wear it better than it looks on me. They are very comfortable. I have not found them to be too heavy, which was an initial concern for me. I would definitely recommend them.

Design: They look just like regular Ray-Bans—sleek, modern, and lightweight. Most people don’t even realize they’re smart glasses.
Camera: The built-in camera is surprisingly good for quick photos and short videos. Perfect for hands-free moments when you're out and about.
Audio Quality: The open-ear speakers work well for casual listening or calls without completely tuning out the world.
Voice Control: The Meta AI voice assistant is handy and responsive. Great for quick commands or checking the weather while on the go.

Thank you so much for the lovely review, and for sharing your experience with us.

Hey Meta!

I have had bluetooth sunglasses in the past but wanted to try these Ray-Ban Meta - Skyler Smart Glasses for the advance AI and picture/video capability. I was really excited about them until I opened the case. I first noticed the (blah) greyish frames matched with the pinkish lenses. These definitely skew to a more feminine user although I would for sure wear them if they actually worked better to block out some sun. The fit is very tight if you have a head bigger than that of a teenager. I do actually really like the cat eye frames, they look very cool. All that being said, that is the last negative things I have to say. The rest of the review is all positive and how well the amazing technology works.
Set up was very easy. Download the app and go through the tutorials on how to use the glasses as they are very helpful. Saying "Hey Meta" allows you to ask question and give commands to your glasses. To take pictures or video you can say "Hey Meta" take a picture or video or just press the capture button on the right arm of the glasses. To let people know you are taking pictures or video, a led light blinks on the upper right side of the lens frame. The Camera is on the upper left side so when taking pictures of someone right in front of you, it is best to turn your head a little to the right to center your object in the picture. I tried a video call on Whatsapp with my wife who was in Hawaii at the time and she and I were amazed that she could see exactly what I was seeing by double tapping the capture button. That's some futuristic stuff!!! One other cool feature is you can send a picture you just captured without ever touching your phone. Just say "Hey Meta, take a picture", then say "Hey Meta send last picture" and it will ask for the recipients name and send it via text. High Tech!!
The feature I really love is the sound quality of the speakers. As I said I had another high tech companies Bluetooth sunglasses and they are no match to the sound these Ray-Ban Meta - Skyler Smart Glasses put out. Music comes through with a good mix of rich audio and deep bass to form an amazing listen. You can control the volume with a slider on the right arm of the glasses . You can also program your glasses in settings to open either Spotify or Amazon Music with one touch on the side of the glasses. At this time, the Ai can't go directly to a song when saying "Hey Meta" but maybe something that can be updated later on. There is also no navigation built in yet but if your have Google Maps open you will hear turn by turn directions through the speakers of the glasses.
There are so many more cool function's to play with but unfortunately for me, My 20 year old daughter will probably get more use out of these than I will.

FUN and COOL Meta Ray Bans

The last few days I have been enjoying my new Meta Skyler Ray Bans! I am quite impressed with all that they can do and do seamlessly well. My Meta Skyler style is comfortable, fits my face with a high bridge, and is stylish in the Shiny Chalky Gray hue. The Cinnamon Pink gradient lenses shipped in this frame color suit my desire for a sunglass tint. They cut the glare, but also allow vision in low-lite areas. Perfect on cloudy days, they also enable vision to adjust well during frequent movement between indoor and outdoor spaces.
There are so many features I could rave about, but I want to begin with a discussion about the impressive camera. The camera’s photo and video clarity are exceptionally good, and the ultra-wide 12 MP camera and five-mic system allow the user to capture exactly what they see and hear. The photo clarity is rich and sharp. The camera even allows the person on the receiving end of a video call to see exactly what the person wearing the glasses is looking at when in recording mode. Each pair of sunglasses is equipped with a 32 GB Flash Storage memory that can hold up to 500+ photos and 100+ 30-second videos. All styles of the Meta Ray Ban glasses are Wi-Fi 6 Certified Bluetooth 5.2 and compatible with both iOS and Android 10.
I also cannot say enough about the audio. The two (2) custom-built speakers' open-ear system delivers clear, unbroken audio void of any static. The frames deliver a rich sound that is built around an extended bass. It is so good that it is hard to believe the clarity of the sound or that you are receiving this great sound through the frame of the glasses. By using directional audio, Ray-Ban has designed these speakers to provide the audio specifically to your ears. I have really enjoyed playing music from my phone for the first time in 13 years of owning a smart phone. I have had several makes of earbuds/pods of all price ranges, and all of them, no matter the price, want to fall out of my ears. There is no longer a need to worry about that with the Meta Ray Bans. Walking and listening to your favorite tunes through the eyeglass frames is not only enjoyable, but more than convenient.
The app allows for several different hands-free settings including the setup of allowing your glasses to accept calls, take a still-shot photo, film a short video clip, etc. Through the app, you can upload your images to your phone or social media. The app also lets you set different voice-command possibilities, and by enabling Meta AI you can allow the control of just say “Hey Meta.” You can ask Meta questions while wearing the glasses and, surprisingly, receive honest detailed answers. My first request to Meta AI was to tell me what I was looking at. To my shock, it replied, “A cluttered room and two dogs”! Unfortunately, it was a cluttered room and my two West Highland Terrier dogs!
The glasses charge in the case using a “C” type charging cable. When fully charged, they have up to four hours of battery life. The case is rated to provide an additional eight full charges, further eliminating the need for a charging cable when you may be ‘out and about’ for the day. To me this is an exceptional feature. The case’s closure has an indicator light showing the battery’s status.
If needed or desired, Ray Ban has a system for equipping your glasses with prescription lenses, including progressive lenses. Besides the Meta Skyler, there are three (3) other styles to choose from: the Meta Wayfarer, the Meta Low Bridge Fit Headliner, and the Meta Wayfarer Scuderia Ferrari Miami LTD. Setup is very easy after first downloading the app. There are minimal buttons on the glasses, and they are all ergonomically placed in common sense locations. There is even a Touchpad on the right temple which allows for turning the volume up or down, etc. The capture button is also on the right temple toward the hinge. A notification LED on the lower inner portion of the right lens.
I LOVE THESE GLASSES and I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THEM!

They take crystal clear videos and pictures. The battery life isn't the best. But if youre like me and vacation a lot they're perfect. I don't like that a charging cord wasn't provided...I suggest when they're not in use keep them in the charging case and pull them out for activities when you wanna capture your unforgettable moments. They block the sun good I wear them more than my cartier glasses. They're durable and they fit perfectly. Music sounds good on them and the telephone conversations are crystal clear!!
