Customer Ratings & Reviews

These Smart glasses attracted my attention when they were first announced. Ray-Ban Stories were the first generation and I liked those but used them mostly as just sun glasses. Now when Meta has partnered with Ray-Ban to make the second gen and announced all the new improvements they did to the product, I decided to give them another try and was able to get Ray-Ban Meta - Wayfarer (Standard) Smart with Bluetooth Audio. Here are my experiences with these glasses: First of all, they are comfortable, its design is trendy and they look exactly like any regular Ray-Bans in this category. They are not chunky and its weight is simply perfect, even though they house, two cameras, microphones, speakers and a processing unit, etc. Image and Video quality is excellent for a pair of sunglasses and I was very impressed how pictures turn out when transferred to my phone. The shutter button is conveniently located on top of the right arm, however thanks to the embedded AI Assistant, yes these Smart Glasses feature a full-fledged AI helper to answer your questions. So if you need to take a picture or a video, you simple say: "Hey Meta, take a picture" and just like that you are shooting a 12MP picture. This Smart Glasses are definitely great for the first person photo and video. Now, just make sure you do not wear a baseball hat like I did, a mistake you will see later in your pictures. Now, let's talk about the Audio quality. Speakers on these glasses rock! I mean, the sound is pure, crisp and sound like a good pair of headphones. What's amazing is there is nothing poking in your ears, the sound flows out of the glasses and surrounds you in a way. Also, unlike the first gen these smart glasses do not leak the sound everywhere so the people around you can hear everything. At 50% volume, you are enjoying your music, not your friends or family who are with you at the moment. I really like taking calls with these Smart Glasses, use them for biking and listening to my favorite playlists and podcasts. Now, since there is no display inside or on your lenses, I am still hoping for Google like glasses some day in the future, as a lot of your requests and conversations with the AI Meta Assistant will rely on the Audio feedback. I found the answers were right on and are very a matter of fact. You can choose a number of different voices to your liking. Of course the glasses rely on your phone's data or internet connection to answer your questions. Overall, I am very pleased and surprised by these glasses. They are definitely going to be used a lot and I look forward to new gen of AI Smart glasses next year!

I am loving my new Ray Ban Meta Wayfarer sunglasses! When you first get the sunglasses, you don't really know what to expect. But once you open the box you are immediately reminded that to own one of the coolest pieces of tech today. The glasses come in a classic Ray Ban tan case, but with a twist. The case is actually a charging case. It is only slightly bigger than a traditional Ray Ban case. It has a dot light indicator on front to tell you when it's on and when it's charging. Setting up the glasses are very easy with the meta view app. There were zero issues when pairing the glasses. The app then takes you through a brief tutorial. Then you are ready to rock your new shades! I immediately starting snapping photos and shooting videos of my wife and daughter in my living room. They wanted to be mad but couldn't because the idea was so cool. I then took them to work with a bunch of paranoid construction workers and started filming them during our morning and afternoon hang outs. They too were tickled by how cool the shades were, they didn't even care that i was filming them. The photo and video resolution is excellent. You cannot truly believe that it is filmed or shot on a pair of sunglasses. The media shows up on the app where you can extract to your phone. It is pretty simple and easy to use. It can also automatically download to your phone if you like. These sunglasses even have built in speakers and act like headphones. The sound quality is actuality very good. I currently own a different brand of Headphone sunglasses, and the Ray Bans blow them away. The buttons are very easy to locate, touch, and get the hang of. I had no issues controlling everything with ease. There is a bright light on the glasses that come on when you take a photo or video. This let's people know you are recording them. I like this feature because it maintains full disclosure on what you are doing. Battery life is decent, the more i played with them, the more i noticed how quickly the battery can deplete. Just make sure you have your case handy. Overall, i think that these sunglasses are worth every penny. They perform very well and are great conversation starters. If you love standing out and having the latest tech, these are for you.

I like Reviewing Everything I use and when the Ray Ban Stories first came out, I got them because I enjoy taking pictures as well as videos, and for the most part I post them for my family and friends to see. And now that the second generation came out I had to try them and they are superior to the first generation, they are amazing and much better than anything out there. First they come well packaged, they come with the charging case, glasses, cleaning cloth, instructions and a very useful application; they do not come with a cable or a charging adapter, on the other hand I have plenty of USB C cables so I do not need another one. The instructions for setup are very simple, download the app, charge the case and follow the instructions that walk you step by step on how to use them as well as get to know them. The application is very easy to use; they do connect my glasses to my phone, to Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp. I really like how easy it is to take pictures or videos, and best of all they look amazing. The pictures using the 12 megapixel camera takes photos of 4032 x 3024 px, and videos of 1920 x 1440 px @ 30Fps and finally the sound is amazing because when I play back the videos I can hear the amazing sounds from all over because the glasses have five microphones. And speaking of sound, as a triathlete and marathoner I can hear to music while I am aware of my surroundings while I am doing most activities and the music sounds great, much better than the previous version, it still does not compare to earbuds because they are not in my ears but I am really enjoying my glasses because these sunglasses not only do they have great sound, they offer a lot more. The glasses connect via Bluetooth 5.3 or Wi-Fi 2.4-5 Ghz. One thing to enjoy the most is the Meta AI, all I have to say is “Hey Meta” and I can either take a picture, video or ask anything I want like the weather or air quality. The glasses have a touch pad on the right, it is not visible but when I want to put the volume up/down, pause, play, play music from Spotify and more I can do it with a soft touch to the glasses, just awesome. Streaming, is easy, I can start live streaming with my phone, switch back and forth with the glasses it comes out fantastic. To take a picture there is a button that all I have to do is touch once and there is a picture, and the glasses have an led to let me know it took the picture, long press the button and it will take a minute of video while I can see it is recording it also lets others know I am recording because there is an LED light to show that I am doing so. Overall these glasses from Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer are amazing, not only do they look cool, elegant and fantastic, I can listen to music or anything I want to listen to while hiking, running, or just bring them with me to take pictures, videos or even live stream. I can also hear my messages and send them back by using Meta’s AI, also by using Meta’s assistant I have access to get information just using my voice.

can honestly say my Meta glasses have been a game changer. From the moment I started using them, I realized they aren’t just “smart glasses”—they’re a perfect blend of technology, style, and everyday convenience. • Design & Comfort: The glasses look sleek and feel lightweight, so I can wear them all day without even noticing. They blend in naturally like a normal pair of glasses, but with powerful features tucked inside. • Audio & Calls: The built-in speakers are crystal clear. Music, podcasts, and calls sound amazing, and the open-ear design lets me stay aware of what’s going on around me. Taking calls hands-free while walking or coaching feels futuristic but effortless. • Camera & Video: The camera quality is outstanding. Being able to capture photos and videos instantly—without pulling out my phone—means I never miss a moment. It’s perfect for recording highlights, family memories, or even behind-the-scenes content for my teams. • AI Integration: The real magic is the AI. I can ask questions, get translations, or even identify things I’m looking at—all right through my glasses. It feels like having a personal assistant that moves with me. • Daily Life Impact: Whether I’m coaching volleyball, spending time with my family, or just out and about, these glasses make life smoother, more connected, and more fun. Meta glasses don’t just add convenience—they transform everyday moments into something smarter and more exciting. For me, they’re not just tech, they’re an essential part of my lifestyle.

Love these glasses. I love the the style the frame is really cute. I sometimes listen to music on it and the sound is nice and clear. Used them on my trip to Japan for a video on the Mario karts and they came out great! Only downfall is that the battery does die after about 3 hours but otherwise great product

I wasn’t expecting to be this impressed — but the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer glasses have completely changed how I capture and interact with the world. Stylish like classic Wayfarers but packed with futuristic tech, they’re hands-down the coolest piece of wearable gear I’ve used in years. The built-in Meta AI is surprisingly helpful — from checking the weather to answering quick questions while I’m on the move. Taking hands-free photos and videos with just a voice command or tap feels like sci-fi made real. The audio is crisp and surprisingly immersive, yet still lets me stay aware of my surroundings. Great for music, podcasts, or calls while walking, filming, or even editing BTS content for my creative projects. I also really appreciated how smooth the setup process was. The Meta View app makes syncing everything super intuitive. Best Buy’s in-store team gave me a quick overview, and I was fully up and running in minutes. Shoutout to their staff — professional and genuinely excited to talk about the product. These glasses have already elevated how I document moments in real-time — whether I’m capturing creative shots during video shoots or just going on a walk and narrating my thoughts. If you’re even remotely curious about smart glasses, this is the pair to get.

Following the highly successful Ray-Ban Stories comes the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Smart Glasses. They are stylish eyewear that offer audio and visual features. My pair featured the polarized gradient lenses with the matte black finish. Within the eco-friendly and minimalistic packaging: • Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Smart Glasses • Charging Case and Cleaning Cloth • Quick Setup Guide • Safety and Warranty Booklet The charge case requires a USB-C cable which is not included as the expectation is they are currently ubiquitous. Connecting to your new sunglasses is made possible via Bluetooth 5.3 and the Meta View app, previously Facebook View. A Meta account is required for the app. Once powered on and connected to the app, there’s a tutorial on the basic functions such as taking pictures, starting a video recording, pausing a track and adjusting the volume. There are three basic menus in the app: • Home: Provides tutorial videos and short feature summaries • Gallery: Displays all pictures and videos captured by the account user • Settings: Options for configuring LED notification brightness, shutter options (i.e. long press for video, short press for pictures and vice versa), language and voice, wear detection, updates etc. Quality and durability, synonymous with Ray-Ban’s history, are evident in the construction of the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Smart Glasses. The hinges are sturdy with no play. The left temple houses the camera while the right accommodates the capture LED to notify the public the camera’s in operation. A second notification LED for the user is located on the inside of the right rim. This LED has three options for brightness control. As the name implies, it provides status indications via different colors as needed. The right temple also features the touchpad, a speaker (with two openings), the shutter button and two microphones. The taps on the touchpad now offer an improved feedback that help confirm gestures. On the left temple is another speaker (with two openings), two microphones and a toggle power switch. The last of the five microphones is located close to the left nose pad. Charge port is tucked out of sight under the bridge. As previously stated, the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Smart Glasses feature a single ultra-wide 12 MP HD camera. It is capable of crisp resolutions of up to 3024 x 4032 pixels for stills and 1440 x 1920 pixels @ 30 Fps for videos. During the day and in well-lit environments, pictures are sharp and reproduce colors accurately. For video capture, there are three options for lengths, 15, 30 and 60 seconds. The Meta View app provides the ability to share content directly to Facebook (Live, Post or Story), Instagram (Live, Post or Story), Messenger or WhatsApp. Should you require to email, print or share via Bluetooth etc. the options also exist via the extended share menu. The five-microphone array setup ensures that conversations and content audio are delivered clearly. A novelty with these sunglasses is the ability to listen to audio or engage in conversation while still being aware of your ambient conditions. This is all made possible by the two speakers located on each temple. In operation, they are able to deliver crisp, clear low to midranges and even some bass. While this setup will never replace your in-ear options, it’s a technological feat how sound is directed specifically for the users for the utmost discretion. “Okay Meta” or “Hey Meta” wakes up the assistant (Meta AI) for handsfree operation. In my experience, I have been successful in getting the tasks below accomplished. This is by no means an exhaustive list: • Record video • Take pictures • Tell time and date • Provide temperature conditions and location • Initiate calls via phone or WhatsApp • Send text messages via phone The remarkable thing with this assistant is its continued evolution. Interaction is conversational and intuitive thanks to the AI. It asks the right questions to hone in on the desired action prior to execution. For calls and text messages, it appears to go by the default number assigned to the contact. As a WhatsApp contact can have multiple numbers without the traditional “default”, the assistant advised the presence of multiple numbers and suggested renaming them differently. I have no doubt about the addition of more features with updates. To further portray commitment to security and privacy, there is now a new “verified sessions” feature which seeks to prevent unauthorized calls or messages. When enabled, the user must complete an authentication on the connected smartphone when a call or message is attempted. Once verified, it remains in that state until the sunglasses are removed. Yes, there is wear detection aboard! The charge case has been redesigned to accommodate the location of the charging port on the sunglasses. While the new design is refreshing, I could not help but miss the constant charging status indicator on the previous iteration. The new case will show the charging status when the clasp is toggled. The LED design on the new case is definitely very refreshing. The four-hour battery life of the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Smart Glasses are also supplemented with eight additional charges via the case from a full charge according to Ray-Ban. This, of course, will vary on an individual basis and can be subject to a myriad of factors. Prior to the Ray-Ban Stories and now the Meta Wayfarer Smart Glasses, I did not realize the need for these devices that are able to fill this unique niche. I do not see how we will ever go without them, especially considering the ever-improving AI. The convenience of handsfree operation, for both audio and video functions, is worth every ounce in its weight! I highly recommend them.

These glasses are not the most stylish but they are super fun and I love how seamless the transitions are. They go with everything even if they make me look a bit dorky! No issues with them so far that a quick reboot can’t fix. The speakers/music aspect is phenomenal, it’s honestly what sold me initially. Picture quality isn’t half bad either. Fit great on the face. Have a nice weight to them and feel very secure. Battery life is mehhh. Worth the money? Maybe not, but I still like them enough and I’ll use them enough down the road to justify blowing a bunch of money on these.

The Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses are surprisingly sleek and comfortable, looking just like regular sunglasses. The camera quality is great for capturing quick moments without needing your phone. Audio is clear for music and calls, but not super immersive. Voice commands work well most of the time, making hands-free tasks easier. Battery life lasts about a day with casual use, but drains faster with constant use. They feel more like a subtle tech accessory than a gimmick. If you’re into wearable tech, they’re a cool blend of style and functionality.

I’ve been using the Meta glasses for a bit now, and I’m really impressed. The design feels like a regular pair of stylish Ray-Bans, but with the added bonus of built-in tech. The audio is surprisingly clear and works well for calls and music without blocking outside sound. The camera is sharp and makes it super easy to capture quick photos and videos hands-free. Battery life is decent for everyday use, and the charging case is handy. The AI features are a nice touch and keep getting better with updates. They’re perfect for people who want a mix of style and functionality without wearing something bulky or “tech-looking.” Overall, a great step forward, comfortable, sleek, and practical for daily life.

The Ray-Ban Meta Glasses have truly exceeded my expectations. The audio quality is excellent, offering clear and balanced sound for both music and calls. The transition lenses perform flawlessly, adjusting quickly and effectively to changing light conditions. The design combines classic Ray-Ban style with modern comfort, making them ideal for daily wear. I’m particularly impressed with the smart features, including the camera and voice control, which add convenience and functionality without compromising style. Overall, an outstanding product that delivers both performance and elegance.

The Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarers are a wild mix of classic style and futuristic tech, and honestly, they’re kind of awesome—but not perfect. They look just like regular Wayfarers (so no awkward “tech gadget” vibes), but they pack in open-ear speakers, dual 12MP cameras, and smooth Meta integration for things like live-streaming or snapping quick pics. The audio is shockingly clear for open-ear, and the photo quality is solid (unless it’s dark—then, not so much). They’re a bit heavier than normal glasses, and the 4-6 hour battery life isn’t ideal if you’re out all day. Oh, and privacy? A little iffy since the camera’s so low-key, even with the LED indicator. Still, if you want wearable tech that doesn’t scream “I’m a cyborg,” these are seriously worth checking out (just be ready to charge them often).

video works great on these even when riding bumpy mountain bike trails.. image stabilization works very well.. sound quality is great when listening to music, phone calls, and ai responses,.. microphone noise cancelling is awesome. Only complaint is about the battery,.. it charges fast when you use the case but if you are going to use it for video and photos a lot you will have to recharge the glasses a few times a day. But if just using for headphone replacement and ai functions you can get through half of the day or more on one charge in my experience. Also live video streaming for Instagram and WhatsApp is very cool to use especially if you need to show people how to do something and you need both hands free. Once you have a pair of these you'll have a hard time living withoiut them.

The Ray-Ban Meta is the perfect combination of iconic style and cutting-edge technology. With a sophisticated and timeless design, it preserves the Ray-Ban tradition while introducing innovation with smart features that transform the user experience. Whether capturing moments with discreet photos and videos, enjoying surprisingly high-quality music, or staying connected without compromising on classic looks, the Ray-Ban Meta elevates the concept of eyewear to a whole new level. More than just a fashion accessory, it is a true ally in everyday life, bringing together comfort, connectivity, and elegance in one product.

I’ve been using the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer smart glasses for a little while now, and they’ve completely exceeded my expectations. The design is classic and stylish—true to the Wayfarer heritage—but with powerful tech seamlessly integrated. The Meta AI assistant is incredibly responsive and useful for quick questions or hands-free help when I'm out and about. Being able to take photos and videos straight from my glasses is a total game-changer, especially when I want to capture the moment without pulling out my phone. The image and video quality is surprisingly good for something so discreet. The audio is clear and immersive without leaking too much sound—perfect for music, podcasts, and even calls. I also really appreciate the clear-to-green Transitions lenses. They adapt smoothly in different lighting and offer a cool, futuristic look while still being super functional. All in all, these glasses are just fun to use and make daily life feel a little more connected. Whether I’m walking around the city or traveling, I love having them with me. Highly recommend for anyone who loves wearable tech that actually blends style and function.

I’ve been using the Meta smart glasses for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed. The design is sleek and stylish—comfortable enough for daily wear without looking too "techy." I love that they look just like regular sunglasses. The built-in camera is surprisingly good for quick photos and short videos, perfect for capturing moments hands-free. Audio quality is also solid, with open-ear speakers that let me hear my surroundings while listening to music or taking calls. Voice commands through Meta AI work well for simple tasks like taking a picture, making a call, or checking the weather. Battery life is decent—about 4-6 hours depending on usage—but I do wish it lasted a bit longer. The charging case helps extend use on the go. Pairing with my phone was easy, and the Meta View app gives helpful access to media and settings. Pros: Stylish, lightweight design Good photo and video quality Clear audio with open-ear speakers Smooth voice command functionality Cons: Battery life could be better No display (for those expecting AR visuals) Overall, these are a great step forward in smart glasses—perfect for content creators, commuters, and anyone who wants tech that blends into their everyday life.

I have really enjoyed these glasses, the clarity, vision, video and sound is awesome, the translation is even on point. The few things i dislike about the glasses are, they do not stay charged for a very long time, i give or take just a few hours before you have to place back into the case for charging, so i still have to carry around my ear buds for back up, something i was really hoping to get away from bc ive gotten the elastic piece stuck in my ear before. Back to the charging, although they dont last long as far as charging once you place them back into the case they charge really fast, like 1-2% a min. The video recording doesn't seem to last more than 3 mins before you have to start a new video. I like the video feature bc these days you never know what may surprise you in which you could benefit from having certain situations videoed, 3 mins is quite short. Overall its a great buy for what its capable of doing but im sure in the near future somethings may change.

Thanks to these glasses, I’ve been able to capture POV videos of my one-year-old daughter toddling around outdoor parks, indoor playgrounds, church sanctuaries and more. And how great to record precious moments that would pass before i’m able to whip out my phone camera! Not to mention, i can take mirror selfies with no visible camera! The (portrait/vertical-only) 1080p media can be cropped and even upscaled using various apps later. Smaller files (3:00 min max) make for fast file transfers. Recording drains the battery more quickly, but at this price, i just got two. I can switch glasses (both with transistion lenses) when one needs to recharge (in the handsome case). I hope my wife and family will re-watch these clips for years to come. Priceless.

Pretty cool and good Quality , only con would be id say it works for about an hour of recording or taking pics then after dies . but still stylish , cool app ,

I bought these sunglasses for my man’s birthday, and he absolutely loves them! The style is sleek, comfortable, and looks great with everything he wears whether he’s on the road or out for the day. They feel durable and high-quality, not cheap like some others I’ve tried. He said they fit perfectly and block the sun really well, which is a big plus since he’s outside a lot. Definitely worth every penny these made the perfect gift!
