Ever since I bought my RB Meta glasses, they’ve genuinely improved my day-to-day life a lot.

The audio quality is way better than I expected. The open-ear speakers are super convenient, don’t hurt my ears and I don’t have to constantly mess with Bluetooth like regular earbuds. They reconnect really fast every time. Taking photos is also one of the features I use the most. In daylight, I actually think the pictures look more natural than my phone sometimes. Night shots definitely aren’t as good though.

I used Meta AI a lot when I first got them and honestly it felt like having a little assistant with me all the time. I could ask random questions whenever I wanted. The downside is it drains battery pretty fast, so eventually I turned it off most of the time. On my Gen 2, I usually get around 4 hours of battery life mainly listening to music before I need to charge again. Because of that, I ended up buying a Carina S1 charging stand for my office. It looks clean on the desk, charging has been very stable, and overall its been working great for me.

My biggest hope for future smart glasses is better battery life and less weight. After wearing them for a long time, I still feel a bit of pressure on my nose bridge. If they can improve those two things, I’d honestly consider buying another pair in the future.

Overall though, I’m really happy this kind of product exists.

Hi,

I had ordered Oakley Meta glasses 17th May in India.

Although I received a confirmation email from Meta for the same, I cannot track the order with the options they are giving me

Whenever I open "track your order", it shows order does not exist.

I have tried mailing metasupport@savex.in but they have not replied to the ticket at all since 17th.

Please anyone suggest what to do.

My Metas won't charge. Ive tried charging the case over night several times, and nothing. Solid orange light comes on while plugged in but no light or any response from the Metas. Case doesnt flash green, orange or red. Just stays solid orange. Ive tried a hard reset on the glasses and no response either. Unless I am doing the hard rest wrong. I have the 4002 Meta Glasses with the black case. Charging port on the side not the nose. Any help would be greatly appreciated 👏

PS - I am not the original owner. They were a gift from a while ago. So I cant do a warranty exchange or anything like that.

That’s about it. Just found this community. Long time RB, BL collector.
Anxious to read some of what you’ve got on here.

Any news on this? Its annoying for this core feature to be removed with no issues. Ive had these for 5 months and they were lovely while I had it on, but its not a thing anymore and annoying

bought Ray-Ban Meta gen 2 Wayfarer glasses for $310 on Facebook Marketplace, and they came sealed with Grey transitions. I thought I got a pretty good deal. When I checked them out, they connect to the meta app successfully and have all the main meta features and the app works fine. The sound quality is amazing and the overall build feels solid. However, I’m noticing some issues. The color tint is kinda yellow in a way and the colors in the video aren’t too good, and when it’s dark or kinda dim in the room it’s kinda staticy in the video footage. The frames do feel good though in the video but I’ve got some videos I shared above.
Here’s where it gets sketchy. The seller told me they were real and that he got them as a gift. But when I texted him on Facebook Messenger about the issues, he blocked me. He hasn’t blocked my phone number though, and I’ve been texting him there trying to get a response. No luck.
I’m genuinely unsure if these are real or fake. A bunch of people have told me they look authentic, so maybe the yellow tint and static are just normal for Meta glasses? But it’s also possible the guy didn’t know if they were real when he sold them to me, and now that I’m telling him about these problems, he’s ghosting me because he doesn’t want to deal with a refund.
The serial number checks out as valid, they connect to the app and like I said have basically every feature so that’s something. But I’m still confused. Does anyone have experience with Ray-Ban Meta glasses? Is the yellowy color and video static normal, or am I looking at fakes? What should I do?

I finally got my Blayzer, and compared to my old Meta Wayfarer glasses:

1. Design-wise, compared to the classic Wayfarer look, I think the Blayzer feels a bit more unique. Personally, I prefer this style more.
2. The weight difference is actually more noticeable than I expected. On paper its only around 5–6 grams lighter, but comfort-wise it feels way better, especially during long use. There’s a lot less pressure on my nose and ears.
3. The camera area also looks more refined now. It doesn’t stick out as much as before and the frame lines look cleaner and more polished overall.
4. The hinges are so much better. Honestly, this surprised me the most. The opening angle is noticeably wider, and unlike my old Wayfarer pair, it doesn’t clamp my head anymore. Way more comfortable to put on.
5. Battery life feels pretty similar though. For normal use like short videos + listening to music, I’m still getting around 3–4 hours. I used a Carina S1 charging stand with my Wayfarer before and charging was always stable. Right now there don’t seem to be many charging stands specifically designed for the Blayzer yet, but I tested the Carina S1 and it actually still charges fine, just not as perfectly fitted as the Wayfarer.

After a few days of use, my biggest takeaway is that the Blayzer is a huge improvement in both comfort and overall design. Really enjoying it so far.

I am buying meta glasses gen 2 so should I turn off the update as soon as it arrives or it would be already updated ... Location india
