Meta has just announced her new pair of smart glasses at her annual Connect conference, which is underway. Meta Ray-Ban display glasses are completely changing the game for tech glasses, allowing you to do just about everything your phone can while keeping it nestled, checking messages to navigate in life, you can do everything with a single look at the display for the goal.
Meta’s new smart glasses are the first to present a high-resolution color screen, integrated into microphones, speakers and a camera, all designed to operate transparently with Meta AI.
As for the design of the glasses, Meta says that she wanted to create something that looks both elegant and extremely functional, which makes them “feel good”.
Weighing only 69 grams, these intelligent glasses look very much like Ray-Ban Wayfarer with a distinct square outline, with slightly rounded edges, which makes them more aesthetic.
At the front, the lens obtains a slight curve, which could help reduce the radiance of screens and other light sources. As for excessive hinges, they are made of titanium, guaranteeing both durability against wear and tear and light design.
Intelligent glasses are fed by ultra-narrow steelcan batteries all the first which are gently in the thin arms of the glasses of glasses, which gives them a lifespan of the prolonged battery.
The magic of “display”
It’s not about attaching a phone to your face. It’s about helping you quickly accomplish some of your daily tasks without breaking.

These distributed ray glasses have a small high -resolution monocular display which has been integrated into the frame. The personalized light bright engine provides net and bright visuals with 42 pixels per degree of view – a density that is found in any other similar consumption device.
According to Meta, these objectives are photochromatic, which means that they automatically adjust according to the light in which you are.
That said, you wouldn’t want to bang things or people while watching texts or card, so Meta has placed the display on the side so that it does not block your sight. “It is not a question of attaching a phone to your face. It is a question of helping you to quickly accomplish some of your daily tasks without breaking you,” added the press release.
What is exciting is that these glasses are delivered with an EMG meta-neuronal band, with a 18-hour battery life and an IPX7 water rating. It is made to detect muscle movements and hand gestures made by the user. This essentially replaces the need for you to reach your glasses and allows you to control it by a sensor on your wrist, so that users can “scroll, click and, in the near future, even write messages using subtle finger movements”, adds the blog.
Meta’s IA is essentially what makes these glasses so unique. According to the company, users will use its multimodality, which means that it can show you answers and comments step by step, such as having a conversation with someone. Meta Ray-Ban display glasses can help with messages and video calls from WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger. It allows you to better control your photos of the camera with the possibility of zooming and previewing them before clicking.
These intelligent glasses would offer a “telephone” rotating navigation with walking instructions, as well as live translation and legends during conversations. According to AC’s main editor, Michael Hicks, this reduces the noise of the conversations of others, so you only get legends for the people you really look at.
From $ 799, launches on the Meta-Ray-Ban display (Glasses and Meta-Nural included) launches on September 30 in limited American retailers (Best Buy, Lenscrafters, Ray-Ban Stores, Verizon), with expansion in Canada, France, Italy and the United Kingdom at the beginning of 2026.
