Discover the Brilliant Ray-Ban Meta AI Glasses at Specsdirect2u

Rayban Meta AI Glasses

I’m really excited to share something very cool we’ve just brought into the practice, Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses. These are no ordinary specs. They combine classic Ray-Ban style with cutting-edge Meta AI technology to create eyewear that’s not just smart but genuinely useful.

If you love the idea of staying hands-free, snapping photos on the go, translating signs in a new country, or even getting reminders from your glasses (yes, really!), then read on; these might be for you.


What Are Ray-Ban Meta Glasses?

These glasses look just like the Ray-Bans you already know and love, but behind those iconic lenses is some seriously clever tech. Developed by Ray-Ban in partnership with Meta (the company behind Facebook and Instagram), they include a built-in camera, open-ear speakers, microphones, and voice-controlled AI.

They let you:

  • Take photos or videos with a 12MP ultra-wide camera
  • Live stream directly to Instagram or Facebook
  • Play music, podcasts, or take calls through discreet open-ear speakers
  • Use Meta AI to ask questions, translate text, or even remember things for you (“Hey Meta, remember where I parked”)
  • Get real-time translations during face-to-face conversations
  • Splash resistant (IPX4): Built to handle light rain and daily splashes – perfect for Scottish weather!

And yes, they’re completely prescription-ready, which we can sort for you in practice at Specsdirect2u.

🔋 Battery Life and Charging

Charging your smart glasses is simple and surprisingly stylish. They come with a sleek, leather-look charging case that holds up to 36 hours of battery life. Here’s how it works:

  • Pop your glasses into the case, and they’ll charge magnetically
  • A full charge gives you around 4 hours of continuous use
  • The case itself charges via USB-C
  • LED indicators let you know how much charge is left

The case is compact, pocket-sized, and protective, so you can take your smart glasses wherever you go without worrying about battery or damage.


Who Are These Glasses For?

I’ve been asked a few times who these are actually useful for, and the answer is, more people than you might think!

They’re great for:

  • Busy professionals who want hands-free access to calls, photos, or information
  • Travellers who need translation help or quick snapshots
  • Cyclists, walkers, and runners who want music without headphones
  • Parents trying to juggle kids and capture moments at the same time
  • Tech-lovers who just want the newest smart gadget with style
  • Even visually impaired users may find them helpful for identifying objects or signs

And of course, if you already wear glasses, these can be made in your prescription.


How Do They Work?

  • You pair them with your phone using the Meta View app
  • Say “Hey Meta” to activate the voice assistant
  • You can touch the arm of the glasses to take a photo or adjust the volume
  • Photos and videos sync straight to your phone
  • The glasses come with a sleek charging case (USB‑C) that gives you up to 36 hours of audio use
