The Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses are cool technology glasses that can be useful in many ways, and they are better than the first Ray-Ban Stories. However, they try to do too many things at once, and it doesn’t work well. None of the features are perfect, so it’s not easy to say you should get these glasses.

The way they look and are made is really good. They are well-built, there are more than 150 styles to pick from, and the case you use to charge them is both stylish and useful.

Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses Features

The new Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses have some cool upgrades. They come with a better camera 12MP, more storage (32GB), and the ability to shoot good-quality videos in 1080p/60fps. However, the videos can only be 60 seconds long. But if you want to film longer stuff, you can show it live on Facebook or Instagram with another device nearby. The photos and videos look pretty good, but not as great as a phone. When you go live, the video quality depends on your internet speed and other things, so it might not always look perfect.

The glasses also have better audio features. There are five microphones to record sound all around you, and there’s one in the nose to make your voice sound clear during calls. The surprise is that the speakers are really good. They are louder than before and don’t bother people around you. They give you a nice sound with a bit of bass and let you hear what’s happening around you. They also work with microphones to make the sound more immersive when you watch things you recorded before. We’re not sure if they work with streaming music services like Tidal and Apple Music, though.

You can talk to your glasses to start a live video or send stuff to your friends. At first, you need to tell your glasses who you want to send things to and which app to use, like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, or Instagram. But as you use them more, the glasses get smarter and can help you share things faster using artificial intelligence.
