Ray-Ban Meta Glasses (Renewed)

I really like the experience of these glasses. Not made for far distances obviously. I liked the results best when I had taken a picture or video that was within a 20 ft radius (give or take). Quality is amazing btw, I couldn't believe it the first time I used it.

I ordered these as a novelty. I didn't foresee me wanting to use them as my daily eyewear. I planned to forgo the expensive option of having prescription lenses and simply wear my contacts with them. However, I am so pleased with their ease of use, form factor and versatility that I've sought a solution to retrofitting them with my prescription. The camera, audio and microphone setup make the tech good. The addition of an AI assistant in this form factor make it outstanding. They're also lightweight (given the tech built in) and look stylish. And yet, with all of this, they look and feel ordinary. Call quality and clarity, ease of setup, and reliability of the connection are all top notch, as is build quality and functionality. Really impressed with the leap this wearable has made from simply telling stories to ushering in a new way of life.

Works great! Setup was easy. I did not connect it to my facebook because I don't do much social media but it was good to see that this can work just fine independently of facebook. I use it mainly for camera shots, music and the AI feature. I also use it on occassions for presentations as an audio prompter. It works great for that as you're able to play sound through the glasses into your ears without anyone around you hearing or seeing that you're using a prompter. Audio is nice, clear and exactly what I need for both business and casual. One problem I did experience was with the arms of the glasses that goes onto the ear. They have somewhat of a sharp edge to them and will start hurting after about an hour of use, so I resolved this issue by using an arm sleeve which you can get very cheap here on Amazon. I use a prescription with my meta frames. The lab had no problem making the lens and fitting them into the frames.

I recently purchased the Meta Ray-Ban Smart Glasses (Renewed), and I have to admit, I was a little skeptical at first. However, after using them for a few weeks, I’m impressed with their functionality and style. Here’s my detailed review: Design and Build Quality These glasses look and feel like classic Ray-Bans, which is a major plus. The design is sleek, lightweight, and stylish, so you won’t feel like you’re wearing a piece of tech on your face. Despite being a renewed product, the build quality was excellent, with no noticeable signs of wear or damage. They’re durable and sit comfortably on the face for extended periods. Functionality The smart features integrated into the glasses are surprisingly useful: Audio: The built-in speakers provide decent sound quality for calls, music, and podcasts. While it’s not audiophile-grade, it’s clear and works well for casual listening. The open-ear design is great for staying aware of your surroundings. Camera: The dual cameras are discreet and capture decent photos and videos. The quality isn’t on par with a smartphone, but it’s great for quick, hands-free moments or capturing candid shots on the go. Voice Control: The integration with Meta’s assistant makes it easy to control features hands-free, though I found the responsiveness could sometimes lag. App Sync: Syncing with the Meta app was straightforward, allowing for easy sharing of content and customizing settings. Performance Battery life was decent but not exceptional. I got about 5-6 hours of mixed-use before needing to recharge, which is sufficient for casual outings but may not last a full day of heavy use. Pairing with my phone via Bluetooth was seamless, and I didn’t experience any connectivity issues. Pros Stylish design that doesn’t scream “tech gadget.” Hands-free photos and videos are perfect for on-the-go use. Open-ear audio is surprisingly good and keeps you aware of your surroundings. Lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear. Affordable price point for a renewed product, making it a great entry point for smart glasses. Cons Battery life could be better for more intensive use. Audio quality, while decent, lacks bass depth. The cameras are good but not a replacement for your smartphone. Voice assistant responsiveness could use improvement. Final Thoughts The Meta Ray-Ban Smart Glasses (Renewed) are a fantastic blend of style and functionality. They’re perfect for anyone who wants to dip their toes into the world of smart glasses without sacrificing aesthetics. While there’s room for improvement in battery life and audio quality, the convenience of hands-free features and the timeless Ray-Ban design make these glasses a great purchase—especially at the renewed price point. Rating: 4/5 Would recommend for casual users looking for stylish smart tech!

These were given as a Christmas gift and were a big hit. They look great as a Ray-Ban should. Recipient spent entire afternoon happily engaged.

I’ve had my Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer glasses for a little over a year, and the experience has gone from exciting to extremely frustrating. For the price and the promises made in the marketing, these glasses have not performed anywhere near what I expected. The biggest issue is the battery and charging system. The glasses constantly report “Glasses low” at 80%, which makes no sense and severely limits use. It feels like the battery health has degraded way too fast for a premium device, and the warnings pop up even when the glasses are freshly charged. The performance is inconsistent and unreliable, and it makes the product almost unusable for real-world daily wear. I’ve tried resets, charging in different outlets, updating the firmware — nothing fixes the problem. For a device that cost this much, this level of durability and support is unacceptable. It honestly feels like I received a defective unit right out the box and didn’t know it until months later. I love the idea of Meta smart glasses. I WANT to use them. But right now, they disappoint every single day, and I shouldn’t have to fight a product this hard to make it work. At this point, I’m requesting a replacement pair or a warranty accommodation, because the experience does not match the premium branding. I hope Meta does the right thing and stands behind its customers.

Everything works perfectly

These Ray-Ban glasses are of excellent quality. I have been using them for under a year and have found them wonderful. The fit is excellent, just like a standard pair of Ray-Bans. They are easy to use, comfortable, and stylish. It is helpful to listen to music while being aware of my surroundings. The camera quality is excellent. It has plenty of storage, and the phone app makes it easy to navigate media and settings. The battery life is fantastic, holds enough throughout the day, and recharges when placed in the carry case. The audio sounds realistic and almost 3d. Great for podcasts, audiobooks, and music. Don't expect to listen to loud music with a high bass.

I absolutely love these i should have bought way earlier. I do construction and in my industry we are not aloud to have music playing on radios exc .But they cant say much as there glasses and none else can hear it and im fully aware of my surroundings music is not over powering .I use to not wear glasses at work but with these I will wear them all the time .100% game changer

J'adore pouvoir écouter la musique , répondre au appel et prendre des photos tout sa avec les lunettes !c'est cool Le futur !!!🤪

They are perfect and cheap then the actual ones and they work perfectly but they die fast so keep the Glasses case charged at all times. it's a great present to give to ur loved ones!!

I'm not really a tech guy,... was not a huge fan of Rayban either considering there made in China. These Rayban's however very much impressed me, here is why,..... POSITIVES: 1) Solid build, polarized lenses. 2) Leather Charging case, that holds a charge with led changing lights. 3) Great video recording on the fly up to 3 minutes, exportable to your photos in a flash! 4) Takes great photos with a click of a button! 5) Play's my music with voice commands, but could go louder in my opinion. 6) Answer's my incoming phone calls with voice commands, which is amazing. 7) Ask Meta anything and she will answer,.. super cool. 8) Has touch pause & mute features, touch volume slide commands. NEGATIVES: 1) BATTERY LIFE IS SHORT,... 3+HRS JUST NOT ENOUGH. 2) LED FLASHES WHEN TAKING A PHOTO,... 3) LED CONTINUOUSLY FLASHES DURING VIDEO RECORDING,... MAKES PEOPLE LOOK AT YOU FUNNY EVEN THOUGH THERE SHOULD BE NO EXPECTATION OF PRIVACY IN PUBLIC. 4) YOU NEED THE SPECIAL CASE TO CHARGE THE RAYBAN'S,... LOSE THE CASE YOUR SCREWED! SHOULD HAVE COME WITH A USB C PORT BACK UP ON THE GLASSES! REAL DUMB MOVE IN MY OPINION. 5) SHOULD HAVE COME WITH A MINI INSIDE VIEW SCREEN TO VIEW/SEND VIDEOS & SEE/SEND TEXT MESSAGES. SUMMARY: To "Rayban",... Overall I'm going to give you a solid 4/5 stars. These Sunglasses cost me close to $500. Canadian dollars but fell short on many features and could really use more features & battery life. I would recommend buyer's wait for the next generation, as the tech is already in use with other brand Sunglasses. I hope this helps you decide. Take care and stay well. J.O

I like it after seeing lots of review, it's true. They are fun to play with. I really like the speaker and use them as headphones.
