"While much of the fanfare was reserved for the new Ray-Ban Display glasses, which feature a waveguide system that projects visual cues, navigation pathways, a camera viewfinder, and more, the second generation of the original Meta Ray-Bans also launched. In many ways, they succeed their predecessor with meaningful upgrades. But you'll want to note the drawbacks too. I've tested both the first and second generations of Ray-Ban smart glasses, and here are the key reasons for and against buying the latest model."
"Arguably, the biggest improvement with the newest Ray-Ban smart glasses is the ability to record in 3K video resolution. That's on par with the more expensive Meta Oakley HSTN model, and footage is noticeably sharper and more vivid when compared to the older Ray-Bans' 1080p recordings. Also: I biked with the Meta Oakley Vanguard, and they're easily the best smart glasses for athletes The footage is still limited to a 4:3 aspect ratio, making it optimal for social media sharing, TikToks, and other mobile-centric platforms,"
Smart glasses have become one of the most successful AI hardware products in recent years and have driven significant platform investment. The Ray-Ban Display model adds a waveguide system that projects visual cues, navigation pathways, and a camera viewfinder. The second-generation Meta Ray-Bans upgrade the original with meaningful improvements, most notably 3K video recording that yields sharper, more vivid footage compared with prior 1080p recordings. Video remains confined to a 4:3 aspect ratio suited for short social clips. Earlier models allowed two to three hours of heavy use, making battery endurance a key consideration for power users.
