Ray-Ban | Meta Glasses With AI

What Are Ray-Ban Meta AI Glasses?

Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses are the result of a collaboration between Meta and, two industry leaders in technology and eyewear, combining the timeless aesthetic of Ray-Ban with hands-free AI capabilities built for real, everyday life. Building on the foundation established by Ray-Ban Stories, the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses collection has evolved into a full-featured AI glasses platform that puts voice control, a built-in camera, open-ear audio, and Meta AI directly on your face. Whether you're capturing a moment, getting directions, translating a conversation, or simply listening to music on the go, these glasses are built to keep up with your day.

Built-In Meta AI and Voice Commands

The most defining feature of Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses is the integration of Meta AI, activated with a simple "Hey Meta" voice command. From there, you can ask questions in real time, request translations across six languages, get recipe suggestions, identify landmarks, and receive context-aware answers, all without reaching for your phone.

Ray-Ban Meta also supports hands-free calling and messaging through WhatsApp, Messenger, and SMS using voice commands alone. Video calling takes this further: You can toggle between your phone's front-facing camera or your frames to share your point of view, putting others directly in your perspective. These capabilities make Ray-Ban Meta far more than a camera accessory, they make it a connected, intelligent daily companion.

Camera, Audio, and Key Specifications

Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses pack serious hardware into a frame that looks and feels like a conventional pair of Ray-Bans. The built-in ultra-wide 12MP camera captures high-quality photos and video hands-free, with the latest Gen 2 models recording in 3K Ultra HD resolution. A multiple-microphone system ensures rich, immersive audio in every video capture, while a stabilization feature keeps footage smooth even when you're on the move.

Open-ear Bluetooth speakers deliver music, calls, and Meta AI responses with strong clarity and extended bass, without blocking out the ambient sounds around you. A responsive temple touchpad gives you quick control over volume and media playback, while a capture button gives you control over the camera, all without pulling out your phone.

On battery, Gen 2 Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses offer up to eight hours of active use, with the included smart charging case providing up to 48 additional hours of power on the go.

Available Styles and Lens Options

Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses are available in several of Ray-Ban's most iconic frame silhouettes, including the Wayfarer, the Skyler, and the Headliner, each maintaining the classic Ray-Ban look while housing the technology discreetly within the frame.

Lens options are equally flexible. Many sun lens colours as well as prescription lenses and progressive lenses are all available, making Ray-Ban Meta accessible to a wide range of wearers. With multiple colorways and frame sizes across both Gen 1 and Gen 2 models, there is a combination suited to nearly every preference and face shape.

Why Ray-Ban Meta Stands Out

The combination of a recognizable Ray-Ban silhouette, a powerful built-in camera, open-ear audio, and hands-free Meta AI assistance makes these AI glasses a standout in the wearable technology space, one that fits naturally into daily life rather than drawing attention to itself. For anyone looking for AI glasses that deliver on both style and substance, Ray-Ban Meta is the category leader. Shop the full Ray-Ban Meta collection to find your fit.

Which Ray-Ban Meta models are available in Canada?

Ray-Ban Meta glasses are available in Canada in both Gen 1 and Gen 2 models. Current available styles include:

• Wayfarer (Gen 1 and Gen 2)
• Skyler (Gen 1 and Gen 2)
• Headliner (Gen 1 and Gen 2)

What camera specs do Gen 2 vs Gen 1 Ray-Ban Meta glasses offer?

Both Gen 1 and Gen 2 Ray-Ban Meta glasses share the same ultra-wide 12MP camera with a 100-degree field of view and a maximum video length of 3 minutes per clip. Where they differ significantly is in video quality and capture capabilities. Gen 1 records video in 1080p resolution, while Gen 2 steps up to 3K Ultra HD, delivering noticeably sharper, more detailed footage. Gen 2 also introduces two features absent from Gen 1: built-in video stabilization with an auto-select option to keep footage steady during movement, and slow-motion capture for added depth and drama in recordings. For casual photo capture and everyday use, Gen 1 holds up well, but for anyone who prioritizes video quality, Gen 2 is the clear upgrade.
