How can this massive company make such a mistake that the HSTNs are too tight? I want to get these glasses for filming sports but I need them to fit comfortably for long hours. What an absolute joke. Why couldn't they have made them out of the Frogskins?! Do better Oakley and Meta
Meta dropped a new, but not functioning (as of now), feature called “Live Notes” that lets you "capture conversations hands free". You can start the feature by using the exact phrase "Start a live note", and Meta AI will respond with variations of "Let's get that note started" or "To stop Live Notes, say 'Hey Meta, stop live notes'". However, saying "Stop live notes" doesn't do anything at the moment, and your note isn't uploaded to Meta AI or transcribed. The "Learn more about live notes" page is not working either.
Of bigger news, though, is that Meta accidentally leaked "Meta One", a paid service that will presumably give you "access to more live notes and AI features".
Hi to all the blogs and social media accounts that will be yoinking this info from my post.
Edit: As of 11:22 AM, 5/19 Meta removed Live Notes from the Meta AI app. If you ask Meta AI to "Start a Live Note" it will intermittently take a note down, but it will not show up in the Meta AI app.
I’m thinking about getting the Oakley Meta Vanguard mainly for hiking/travel and wanted some real-world opinions before pulling the trigger.
I’m heading to Hawaii for 2 weeks at the end of May and will mostly be doing hikes, scenery, beaches, and casual exploring.
A few things I’m wondering about:
Are they actually comfortable for long hikes in heat/humidity?
How good are the lenses in super bright sunlight? My eyes are pretty sensitive to daylight.
Is the camera useful enough to replace pulling out your phone all the time?
Do they overheat?
Do they feel gimmicky after the honeymoon phase or do you actually keep using them?
Any issues with sweat/rain/humidity?
I already have an Insta360 X5 with me for the trip, so the Meta would be more for quick POV moments and convenience rather than being my main camera setup.
I like the idea of being hands-free on hikes instead of constantly stopping to grab my phone or camera.
Would love to hear from people who’ve actually used them outdoors or while traveling.
I have the prizm road and they’re great sunglasses for driving, jogging, and riding the 🚲
I took them out to the golf course and it’s really hard to spot the ball, compared to when I wear my sutro with prizm tungsten.
Here’s what it looks they look like next to the road and low light. If anyone’s used the golf lens on course let me know what you think!
Finally received them after ordering them on April 16th.
Best Lenses to have purchased. I like the idea of wearing them all day and all night, So these really allow me to do that without looking crazy wearing the 24K or Roads. Love the minimal shade or “filter” as i like to call it, makes the real world look better. Will try to invest in some transition ones as these, as expected, don’t provide any sunlight protection. But overall im genuinely happy. I work inside a building so it’s really nice to have Meta Ai at your command and being able to see whats in front of you clearly. Also lots of people ask what’s other people using their Metas for? I usually use it a lot for hands free calling and texting, and for quick internet searches, as of lately I been using it to search and compare differences between vehicles im looking to purchase and indeed its very helpful. And the best thing is I can send all that information to myself via text, to see it later or while using my vanguards if I want a visual of what it’s talking about. Switching between music, calls, searches and mostly handsfree things, videos and photos when something interesting is happening or about to happen half of the time it’s also used as a normal pair of sunglasses and i love oakley brand so to me they’re what I wanted and like . It’s a sports eyewear but for me it’s also a multipurpose piece of tech as it’s the only size meta piece of eyewear that can fit my big head self.
I just got the Meta Oakley’s and whenever a video plays the volume just goes up and down for no reason. I’ve updated the glasses, factory reset them, updated my iOS. Nothing is helping. Is the only option to return them?
While I love my Meta glasses, I am really disappointed and find them underwhelming for regular use. I've used for pictures and videos for work and social fun. But beyond that don't find them that useful. I can listen to music or podcasts. Or have phone calls. But I can do all that with AirPods.
What are some useful and practical ways you are using your glasses that is more than gimmicky or just because you can? For what it's worth, as the user name would imply, I am in the home services business. My wife and I own a pest control company in Northern Virginia. I've used the glasses to capture videos for training technicians, marketing, and showing clients issues. But have struggled for legitimate use cases.
Hey guys! Just joined the club!! I was curious as to what’s the recommended settings for the camera? I tend to use this for festivals and hiking! Any insight is appreciated, please help me out! 🖤
Too make it quick I orderd some Oakley meta notices my apt number wasn’t there despite putting it and I just received a message today saying about my missing apt number from veho shipping service where they sent me a link to fix it despite having a website and seeing many reviews about they with partnered companies
here's to hoping the eventually add transition effects for the video in the compilation.
Received the return label, shipped the glasses from Vietnam via DHL, and DHL marked the package as DELIVERED on May 1, 2026.
Now it’s already the second week after delivery:
DHL tracking clearly shows delivered.
Has anyone had a similar experience?
How long did it take before your case was updated after delivery?
And how do you actually reach a real human about these warranty cases?
Not sure what’s going on with my glasses. Before I would double tap the touch panel and it would make a click sound to pause and a click to resume? Any suggestions? I just got these in December?
Is there a way to use the glasses to record audio only?
I build houses for a living and sometimes meet with contractors or utility companies. I want to be able to record the conversations to reference what needs to be done on the job site.
In the past, I've just used my Apple Watch to do this, but now that I have these glasses, I'm curious to know if anyone has a solution to this.
Recently noticed the LED light on the Oakley Meta Vanguard can look pretty bright indoors or at night.
I’ve seen some people use stickers or tape, but most solutions don’t look very clean.
Has anyone here found a better-looking LED light blocking solution for daily use?
Why do some videos come out perfect with amazing stabilization and then some come out like this looking fish-eyed and completely unstable? Full HD. This happens 1 out of 10 times.
The Oakley HSTNs I got through insur… All three came yesterday after ordering them on the 29th… I got the smoke brown frames with prescriptio amber brown transition lens, the middle ones are a regular prescription and the last pair is prescription shades I’m so hyped I’m about to have some with these!
