Overview
- Ray-Ban Display pairs a monocular in-lens screen with a Meta Neural Band EMG wristband for gesture control, showing texts, directions, live captions, translations, video calls, and Meta AI responses.
- U.S. sales begin September 30, with a wider rollout to the UK, France, Italy, and Canada planned for early 2026.
- Battery life is rated at up to six hours of mixed use for the glasses with a 30-hour charging case, while the wristband offers up to 18 hours and carries an IPX7 rating.
- Meta also introduced the Oakley Meta Vanguard for athletes at $499 with a center-mounted camera, 3K video, Garmin and Strava integration, and up to nine hours of use starting October 21.
- An updated Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) is available now for $379 with roughly double the battery life (about eight hours) and 3K Ultra HD video, as onstage demos of the new lineup saw connectivity hiccups.
