"Since Meta's display glasses first went on sale, acquiring them has been a challenge. They're not available online and can only be found in a limited number of retail outlets including select Ray-Ban, Sunglass Hut, LensCrafters and Best Buy locations in the United States. To buy them, you need to book an appointment for a demo at one those stores via Meta's website. Ahead of launch, Meta said it saw "strong" demand for demos with locations booked ahead for several weeks."
"Meta's $799 Ray-Ban Display glasses are its first to incorporate a heads-up display and are also equipped with a camera, stereo speakers, six microphones, WiFi 6 and a finger tracking Neural Band controller. In her review, Engadget's senior reporter Karissa Bell noted that the Ray-Ban display "enables wearers to do much more than what's currently possible with [other] Ray-Ban or Oakley models" - provided you don't mind the look of the chunky, chunky frames."
Meta paused the planned early-2026 rollout of Ray-Ban Display smart glasses to the UK, France, Italy, and Canada because demand has outstripped available inventory. No new international launch date has been set while focus remains on fulfilling US orders and re-evaluating international availability. The glasses are difficult to acquire: they are not sold online and are limited to select US retailers, where purchases require booking an in-store demo appointment. Expectations that availability would expand proved premature, reflecting a continued supply-demand mismatch. The $799 model features a heads-up display, camera, stereo speakers, six microphones, WiFi 6, and a Neural Band controller.
