It didn’t deliver what it promised. There was no transitional color. Took it back to store to find out that there has been a lot of issues with these glasses.

The Ray-Ban Wayfarer Meta Smart Glasses are a seamless blend of style and technology, almost indistinguishable from the classic Ray-Ban Wayfarer in terms of their sleek and stylish design. Surprisingly, despite housing advanced tech features, they maintain the slim profile and comfortable fit of the original Wayfarer.
These glasses offer a plethora of technological capabilities, with a notable mention going to the integrated camera. The picture and video quality are impressive, providing sharp and clear imagery. When recording videos, you have the flexibility to choose between 15-second, 30-second, and 1-minute clips, ensuring versatility in capturing your moments. Moreover, the livestreaming option allows you to continuously stream until your battery runs dry. Capturing photos and videos is a breeze, thanks to the intuitive button on the right side of the glasses or voice commands. However, it's worth noting that there is a slight delay when taking photos.
One common concern with smart glasses is privacy, but Ray-Ban has addressed this by incorporating an LED indicator that flashes when recording or taking photos. Although the LED is quite bright, it might go unnoticed by most people in public settings.
One pleasant surprise with these glasses is the audio quality. Despite the speakers being positioned above your ears rather than inside, akin to traditional headphones, the audio remains crystal clear. You can conveniently adjust the volume by swiping up and down along the right side of the glasses.
Considering that the standard Ray-Ban polarized Wayfarer sunglasses are priced at $220, the Meta Wayfarer Smart Glasses are a surprisingly reasonable upgrade, with only an additional $80, totaling $300. This makes them an attractive option for those looking to combine fashion and tech seamlessly.

I have the Ray-Ban Stories sunglasses and this new Meta version fits so much better! I have a slightly above average head size and the Stories sunglasses fit tight on my temples. The Meta sunglasses fit comfortably and does not fall off. I also love the case of the Meta sunglasses it comes with because it looks similar to the regular brown Ray-Ban sunglasses, so look-wise it’s a thumbs up! Right off the box, the sunglasses is easy enough to set up. I had a little trouble connecting it with my bluetooth but it’s due to me not having the bluetooth to begin with so I had to long pressed the case to make discoverable and once my iPhone saw, connection was pretty quick. The accompanying app helped with the set up with easy to follow directions. My music app somehow connected automatically and I was able to control the volume along the temple. The sound coming from the speakers is amazing! I’m not an audiophile though so your mileage may vary. For me the sound passed my qualifications. As for the camera and video quality, I did not expect much as I know it will not compare to the photo quality of my phone but for streaming and taking random snapshots, the sunglasses produces decent quality photos and videos. Comparing again with the previous version Stories sunglasses, the Meta is definitely better quality. It takes nice photos outdoors when the sun is shining bright, so this sunglasses is perfect to use for beach days and just strolling at the park on sunny days. Overall, I love this new version and I recommended this sunglasses to my friends.

I have a pair of the first edition meta glasses, and while they were an innovative product, they definitely felt like they needed a little more time in the prototype phase. As the 2nd generation of Meta product by Ray-Ban, these sunglasses are a huge improvement. Picture quality is better, audio sounds crisper, and it just feels like a final product. While I’m not a huge fan of picture-taking glasses, I do love Bluetooth sunglasses for music, and these are on the higher end level. The music achieves a decent volume without being so loud others look at you. Great for podcasts too. I use speaker sunglasses a lot when I’m riding my e-scooter. Let’s me enjoy music but still be fully cognizant of my surroundings. I played around with the picture taking portion of the sunglasses. Images have better color definition and definitely cleaner detail. Good for catching spontaneous event pictures or sneaking into “no cameras allowed” events, but otherwise I’ll stick to my mirrorless Canon for pictures of friends and family. The Bluetooth connection on this seems to be better than my previous Meta glasses. I was able to upload pictures to my iPhone 15 Pro without disconnects or either device falling asleep.
Definitely a more polished product.

I’m blown away by how incredible these Ray-Ban Meta glasses are. They look just like a stylish pair of Ray-Bans, but the technology inside takes them to a whole new level. The camera quality is crystal clear, the audio is surprisingly rich for such a small frame, and the hands-free controls make it so easy to capture photos, videos, or even take calls without pulling out my phone.
The integration with Meta is seamless—uploading and sharing is effortless. Battery life easily gets me through a full day of use, and the charging case is compact and sleek. They’re comfortable to wear for hours, and I get compliments every time I have them on.
If you want something that blends classic style with cutting-edge tech, these are 100% worth it. Ray-Ban and Meta nailed it—highly recommend!

Hi Minal, thank you for taking the time to leave such a wonderful and detailed review!
That 12 MP ultra-wide camera is surprisingly good, isn't it? Overall they're pretty futuristic, but stylish at the same time. So, we're not surprised you're receiving compliments!
The seamless combination of technology with a familiar, classic Ray-Ban design is what we believe makes them truly innovative. Though, we may be slightly biased...
Thank you for being by our side whilst we work towards a future with endless possibilities!
