Oakley Meta Glasses are a new category of performance AI eyewear from Meta & Oakley. Capture hands-free video, listen to music with open-ear speakers, and get real-time answers from Meta AI. Preorders open July 11.
Given Ray-Ban Meta's success, expanding the partnership with EssilorLuxottica into performance eyewear with a brand like Oakley is the obvious next strategic play.
This new version takes the same core tech of a camera, audio, and AI, but applies it to a sports context. The hardware is built tougher for athletes with features like water resistance, upgraded camera, and larger battery. And the Meta AI integration now acts as a performance tool, letting you ask for real-time info like wind speed on a golf course, completely hands-free.
Bringing this to the court for AI tips is a pretty clever use case. I do wonder if my friends would consider that cheating though. 😂
A few days back, I read that Snap also wants to upgrade their Spectacles. I am pretty curious how this will go on, tho still cannot see many people using such a device.

Just saw Mark's post about this yesterday, now I'm genuinely excited to try it out
Haven't felt this hyped about smart glasses in a while. Congrats on the launch team!
I have a pair of meta raybans. I understand why photos and videos are taken in portrait mode - to suit instagram videos, reels, stories, etc.
However, it’s really hard to know what is the center of my photo or video. Your vision is essentially in landscape. I’d love to be able to toggle my controls so I could take my photos and videos in landscape mode.
Fun product though. Glad you all are expanding to Oakleys. Since it’s a sport brand, I’m curious how light you’re able to make the meta versions since they are so heavy in the Raybans.

So it’s just a change of brand? There doesn’t seem to be any difference in functionality

Cool idea! Just wondering if this will work well for people who are short-sighted?
