"No matter how long I spend writing and thinking about gadgets, there are some things that never cease to surprise me. One of those things is progress. Not just that progress happens, but the pace at which it happens. Case in point: smart glasses. Just yesterday (not literally, but figuratively), Meta was selling one pair: its Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses (Gen 1), which lack a display, but come with a voice assistant, open audio capabilities, and an onboard camera."
"Now? Well, there's not just multiple generations of those smart glasses, but a version called the Meta Ray-Ban Display with a screen inside. And that's just one line of AI smart glasses; there's a whole other line of sports-oriented Meta-made AI smart glasses designed in partnership with Oakley instead of EssilorLuxottica, the owner of Ray-Ban. That variety provides more options for anyone interested in buying a pair of smart glasses, but it also means more to think about."
"The Oakley Meta HSTN AI glasses record 3K video and have solid battery life, but aren't quite as advanced as Oakley and Meta's Vanguard glasses. 3K video recording Longer battery life than Ray-Ban Meta Gen 1 Great audio for calls and music playback Tight fit may not be great for some Style isn't as accessible as Ray-Bans No 60 fps recording (yet)"
Smart glasses have evolved rapidly, producing multiple generations and distinct product lines. Meta's Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses (Gen 1) lack a display but include a voice assistant, open audio, and an onboard camera. Meta now offers the Ray-Ban Display with an internal screen and separate Oakley partnerships for sports-oriented models. Oakley Meta HSTN focuses on action use, records 3K video, provides longer battery life and strong audio, but fits tightly and lacks 60 fps recording. Oakley Meta Vanguard offers a higher IP rating and more sports features. Consumers must choose models that match their lifestyle and activities.
