Overview
- Mark Zuckerberg says many people could stop carrying smartphones within about 10 years, shifting routine tasks to smart glasses.
- The Meta Ray‑Ban Display integrates a monocular high‑resolution screen, camera, speakers and connectivity to surface notifications, navigation, real‑time translation and subtitles.
- Input options include voice, gestures and an optional Neural Band wrist accessory that reads muscle impulses for hands‑free control.
- Early units still depend on a paired device for connectivity and lack some standalone functions, such as placing direct phone calls.
- Meta is demonstrating the glasses in select stores, with the Display model priced from $799 in the U.S. and a non‑display Ray‑Ban version starting at $299.
