Meta Glasses unveiled in partnership with EssilorLuxottica

Meta has unveiled its new Meta Glasses, developed in partnership with EssilorLuxottica. The AI-powered smart glasses are available in three frame styles, including a special edition created in collaboration with Kylie Jenner.

The Meta Glasses feature a 12MP camera, much like the Ray-Ban Meta glasses. They can capture videos in up to 3K resolution at 30fps and still images at a resolution of 3,024 x 4,032 pixels.

The AI glasses include adjustable three-way nose pads, adjustable temple tips, and overextension hinges for a better fit. A dedicated action button provides quick access to Meta AI, which is now powered by the company's new Muse Spark AI model.

Like Meta's previous smart glasses, the new model includes an open-ear speaker system and a multi-microphone array for calls, music, podcasts, and voice commands. It also features noise reduction technology for improved audio quality.

Meta claims the glasses can deliver up to 8 hours of battery life on a single charge, while the bundled charging case extends total usage to up to 40 hours. For connectivity, the glasses offer Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4, Bluetooth LE. They also support Meta’s Neural Band accessory.

The Meta Glasses are offered in Adventurer, Fury, and Meta Glasses by Kylie frame styles, with more than 26 frame and lens combinations available. They also support prescription lenses through Meta's Rx Lens Swap program.

Meta says new features, including Dynamic Photo and pedestrian navigation, will roll out later this month.

The Meta Glasses start at $299 and are available in the US, UK, Canada, France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Ireland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Australia. Customers can purchase the AI glasses from Meta.com, Amazon, LensCrafters, Best Buy and Sunglass Hut.
