Ray-Ban Meta Audio

Overview

The Ray-Ban Meta Audio smart glasses from Meta are dedicated audio wearables priced starting at $349. Currently available for pre-order and shipping on October 13, 2026, the device weighs 43 g and deliberately omits both cameras and displays in favor of a discreet, audio-first design.

Sound delivery and voice input rely on open-ear stereo speakers paired with a 6-microphone array. The glasses link via Bluetooth to a companion phone to power interactive features, integrating Meta AI and Muse as a personal AI agent rather than utilizing on-device AI processing.

With 12 hours of battery life on the glasses and an additional four charges supplied by the case, the hardware functions completely without needing a cable. This setup provides long-lasting audio playback and voice assistance without visual elements.
