I’ve been wearing the new Ray-Ban Meta glasses for a few weeks now, and they’ve genuinely changed how I capture and share little moments. At first glance, they look exactly like classic Ray-Bans—same iconic shape, lightweight frame, no flashy tech vibes. That’s what I love most: they don’t scream “gadget,” they just are sunglasses (or clear glasses) you’d wear anyway.

What Stands Out

• Hands-free photos and videos
  A quick tap on the side, or even a voice command, and I can snap a photo or start recording without pulling out my phone. Perfect for bike rides, cooking, or those times when my hands are full.
• Smooth social sharing
  The companion app makes it easy to send a clip straight to Instagram or WhatsApp. No extra steps, no cables.
• Built-in audio
  Tiny open-ear speakers let me listen to music, podcasts, or take calls. The sound is clear but still lets me hear the world around me, which feels safer on walks or when crossing the street.

Everyday Use

What surprised me is how normal they feel. Battery lasts through a day of casual use, and the charging case doubles as a sleek glasses case. They’re as comfortable as any standard pair of Ray-Bans, so I forget they’re smart glasses until I need them.

Who They’re For

If you like classic style but want a subtle way to capture memories, or if you make a lot of quick social content, these are worth trying. They’re not meant to replace your phone, but to make spontaneous moments easier to catch.
