For those of you that helped me figure out the issues and what not, I have finally had them accepted to be returned and they will be picked up tomorrow

So I have the standard gen version but they felt abit tight on my head near the ears

So went and tried the large today and they to me look massive

Which do you think looks best ignore the gormless photos and the screen shot from the camera app🤣

Reading technical books is hard. Unknown words, confusing phrases, and misunderstood concepts require opening your phone, starting Claude, and working with Sonnet through a series of exchanges to finally get it.

Refocusing on the reading after such a hard context switch can be difficult. Repeated enough times and your attention span starts to deteriorate.

Fix: The assistant deeply understands your book and answers your questions by voice while you read, sidestepping the current process entirely.

All you have to do is:

- Upload a PDF version of your physical book and start reading

- Say "Hey Lumos" along with your inquiry (e.g. "why does det(A)=0 mean the matrix loses volume?")

- Assistant researches the book and responds by voice

- Continue reading until you need help again

It's in extreme beta but works well enough where I won't read a book without it. If you're interested in trying it, please reach out.

Video demonstration coming soon.

Update 07/03: VR Rock reached out to acknowledge the issue and they're now making a new set of lenses for me.

Original post

I decided to give VR Rock photochromic lenses a try since I heard good things about the company, and I wanted a green tint. The new lenses darkened nicely (comparable to Meta's transitions) when outside, but this is as light as they get while indoors, not exposed to the sun.

Their support is claiming this is normal and caused by all of the extra lens coatings, which is kind of ridiculous seeing how clear Meta's transitions lenses are in the same environment.

These are non-prescription photochromic green lenses, non-polarized, with all of their extra coating options (anti glare, anti blue light, etc.) selected.

Can anyone who ordered photochromic lenses from VR Rock share their experiences?

My meta glasses are broken while I'm trying to film some football gameplay.

I'm planning to take it to the store tomorrow but just wanted to check if anyone faced a similar physical damage and got it fixed by the official store or by any local technician?

Hello everyone, so I finally got my glasses today. I have downloaded the app and try to connect the case. When I hold the back button for five seconds it doesn’t turn blue at all. I’ve tried to master reset the case as well as the glasses and nothing works. I don’t see any lights or anything on my glasses. They have been in the case for the past two hours. I am a little concerned with my eyeglass case, the charging port looks crooked. Is this normal? Please help I am so frustrated and pissed off right now. Thank you.

Okay I’m not sure if it’s me but I swear I’ve searched the entire META AI app for “microphone troubleshooting” but it’s nowhere to be found. From my research it should be under customization in the device settings. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I’m just wanting to sound better over phone calls when I’m wearing my glasses. Thanks !

Hey everyone,

I’ve been using the Ray‑Ban Meta Wayfarer Large for a while now, and I had the C1 since last year. About two weeks ago I picked up the C2, so I thought I’d share my real‑world thoughts – not a spec sheet, just what I actually noticed.

• Comfort – the nose pad is a lot better

This was my biggest gripe with the C1. After a few hours, the nose pad would dig into my bridge and leave a red mark.

The C2 thins down the pad. they say about 40% slimmer. In practice, it feels more balanced. I wore it for a solid 6‑hour photo walk last weekend and when I took it off, no marks, no soreness. Huge improvement for long days.

• Charging – it actually stays connected

The C1 would sometimes stop charging mid‑way for no reason. You’d snap it on, think it’s charging, come back later and find it barely moved. Super annoying.

The C2 has some new smart chip or algorithm. honestly I don’t care about the tech, but it works. It stays locked on and charges steadily. Even if you knock it a bit and it loses contact, it auto‑resumes. I haven’t had a single failed charge since I got it.Two things to keep in mind

• Compatibility: C2 is only for Wayfarer Regular and Large (both Gen 1 & 2). If you have Headliner, you’ll need the C1.
• The cable: C2 does not include the magnetic charging cable in the box. You have to buy that separately. C1 came with everything, so budget for that if you go with C2.

Bottom line

If you’re a Wayfarer user and you’ve been dealing with the C1’s comfort or charging hiccups, the C2 is a genuine upgrade. It’s more refined, and it fixes the two biggest annoyances I had.

That’s my experience so far. Anyone else using the C2? How’s it working for you? Or if you’ve got questions, drop them below. I’ll check back.

Cheers.
