r/OakleyMetaGlasses

I almost bought RaybanMeta glasses from sunglass hut last week but decided to not buy since I learnt something crazy and thought of sharing it.

I was told that Meta does not provide ANY warranty on the meta sunglasses and I would have to buy additionally warranty for around $80/ year. AND this warranty will enable me to replace the already bought meta glasses after paying 50% price of the new glasses if any issue arises.

Read the above again. This is so crazy.

Here is what I understand,

I'm buying a piece of electronics sunglasses which does not come with any basic manufacturer warranty. So my exact words were " If I buy these sun glasses and god forbid if the camera stops working or AI doesn't respond or speaker has some problem, (basically any defects due to manufacturing and in electronics) there is no help or support to fix or replace the defective product UNLESS I have bought warranty only during my purchase of the glasses by paying extra money. And the sales guy there confirmed infact that is true. They told me Meta does not take any responsibility of warranty or ensuring customer gets the best product and it relies on Rayban. But Rayban manufacturer Luxotica also does not provide a clear warranty policy.

Representative was not able to help me understand clearly terms of warranty.

I was excited about the Gen2 but now at this point I feel it could be an expensive (~$500) toy.

Am I overthinking this?

Hello all. I’ve been using the meta vanguards for approx 2 months now. Purchased on June 10th. Today they didn’t turn on and I thought they were dead so I cleaned the contacts and tried charging again. When I returned 30 minutes later and tried to reconnect them (with no luck)? I found that they felt hot to the touch on the right side. Has this experience happened to anyone else ? This is really frustrating because I’ve used ray ban wayfarer gen 1 and gen 2 and never had any issues like this. I’ve already submitted warranty claim so im hoping they send me a new pair or at least fix this one. UPDATE: I just noticed when u plug them into charge there is a small humming/buzzing noise. These things are cooked……

I bought these for shooting. Would covering up the microphones with tape or something somehow fix the recorded audio quality of gunshots? I love everything else about the glasses besides this one thing to the point where I’m considering returning them

hello, I’ve been trying to find some third party lenses for my Oakley meta glasses hstn 51mm and can’t seem to find any that fit. I’ve bought two on Amazon that I’ve had to send back cause they both were too big and didn’t fit even though it claims they are the correct size. Anyone have a link to know any? I really wanna pay like 20 or less.

Just picked up the 24k vanguards this weekend and took it out for a ride on Sunday, and after 30 minutes the battery dropped down to 20% 🥴🤯😳😤🙁 I had the auto capture turned on and hey meta was on, but I also noticed there’s an additional settings for meta ai captures which was also turned on. I turned those settings off, but I feel like that was a crazy fast drop in such a short time frame?

Anyone else have similar experience. I’m hoping to get back out on the road tomorrow, but I wanted to post here and get feedback from you guys? I bought mines from Best Buy and I’m a Total Tech member so I get 60 days to return plus two years of geek squad warranty, so I not too worried. But I want to make sure I have the settings properly dialed in first.

Thanks!

On a single charge how long will these last? audio only

I have a deep, visceral aversion to the word "Hey" when used as a salutation. Before I invest in some Oakley Vanguards, can someone assure me with absolute certainty that I can say "OK Meta" instead?
