As of July 2024, the video length has been updated to 3min. This doesn't mention streaming features... It streams to Facebook and Instagram. The issue with this is that if your signal isn't great, the resolution turns into garbage. This video doesn't mention the 'hey meta' voice prompt feature for the talk activated functions. Also the Meta AI is super smart and fun to talk to and play with. Audio is not loud enough to hear in loud environments like train stations or a car with windows open. The price is awesome though, considering the difference in price for regular Raybans that don't have electronics. I bought these on a whim and it turned out to be a very good purchase.
Just won a pair - pretty amazing - they also translated whatever I was looking at (English/Italian/Spanish/French/German) - was able to answer a math problem I wrote down - was able to answer a multiple choice question - hear/respond to txt msgs - make/receive calls - listen to all music apps since is basically a BT headset as well - v6 update now allows 3min vids 😎
Great video. You missed talking about doing sports with glasses and how the stabilization system behaves. I would like to see the glasses during a tennis match, for example.
That’s a really good point and might do a follow up video. It was getting pretty cold where I live and I don’t get to go snowboarding until December but might actually take it on the hills ! Thanks for the comment 🙌🏼
Lol at 6:47 😂 Great review Jay just came accross your channel, I reviewed these too so was curious to hear what other peoples experience has been. Just subbed! I agree the transitions are a better option if you want to use them more. I personally thought the battery life was good. Would you consider getting a prescription version since it seems like you wear glasses?
Haha I am glad you enjoyed it thank you ! I wish they gave me the option here in Canada to do prescriptions but they don’t. I will however look at getting the clear ones!
@@TheTechVengersin Italy I can put prescription lenses on every glasses in every optician shop (even with glasses bought in other stores or online). Can't you do it USA?
Nice video, was interesting in these for awhile. Kinda depressing that they can only record 60sec videos. I thought I could use them to create some hands on content, but short bursts of 60sec clips might not cut it lol. Battery life also needs work for someone to record trips vlog style. With time I’m sure things will get better.
Thanks for the comment and completely agree! I do believe they will have updates to alleviate this and hope things get better. Regardless, I’m excited for the version 2 of these !
I bought rayban stories, just before the meda glasses came out. I retied and brought the glasses with me to the Philippines. It didn't even last 3 months. First, the audio stopped working, shortly after the video and the still shot camera. I bought the transition lens glass. It's just glasses now. Never abused or dropped them. Not very solid state tech.
As an avid golfer, I wish they had them made by Oakley. 😊. Looking at the return policy. I’m not if I want polarized lenses or prescription, maybe transition too. I’m with you on they need “magnetic charging”. My truck has the magnetic charging area in the console and it would be really beneficial to be able to drop the case on the charger while driving. Great video. Thank you for this review.
Wow now the government can track every one at every moment your all morons doing their jobs for them and these demons hide it behind that’s it’s good for you you all really stupid as hell
Hey, thanks for the review. I am hoping meta ai gets better, small point but you can ask it about the weather. These are excellent glasses, cannot wait for gen 3.
Thanks for the comment! It may have improved through updates but when I first received it, I asked it the weather so many times and it told me to look at my phone lol. Still getting that answer on the glasses but I guess I should update it and try! Thanks for the tip!
Your first con negates having just praised the charging case... if they switched to wireless charging, it'd be slow and inefficient. Why compromise when the glasses are literally inside the case? They made the absolutely correct choice.
The light gives it away, i don't understand WHY they did that. If it didn't do that I would have gotten them long ago. This is an invaluable tool for recording while on vacation, but i don't want to be blinking and looking weird.
My friend, the Meta AI assistant can do more than Google, or Siri, in terms of answering questions and remembering context. You could totally ask the weather and even more complex things, there are some limitations like directions. it’s still way way way way way smarter than Siri.
I look forward to purchasing my pair of Ray Bans Meta smart glasses if for no other reason than to waer 'em to assist me with completing security task at work especially when surving building sites within parking stalls and stairwell cases... As there's little to no time at all for reaching for my smartphone to capture visual evidence that connects to written reports.
Hello and thank you for the good video. You did a great job. May I ask, if you were getting these primarily for ability to listen to podcasts or music discreetly, would it be worth it you think? I subscibeded and as I said great video and I'll be watching your future work. Thanks!
Congratulations on the video. Can the Meta Ai of the glasses now be used like GPT Chat, that is, ask any question, on any subject, and receive the answer via audio? Example: I ask for a recipe, he answers me. I ask where to eat a good pizza in Miami, he answers me. I ask for updates on a certain conflict over Iran or Russia and he updates me.
Good choice to wear with lenses. You can not change the lens after Ray-Ban has installed your prescription glass. So paying 600€ and after you eye value's will change you glcan get a new glass for 600€ 😂
They do have the smart assistant a.i now no? I saw another channel showing this but unfortunately, it's seems to be for the US only. Which sucks , but also what sucks is the emf frequency that will be go thru your head 🗣️, I wonder if frontal lobe tumours will be an issue in 10yrs from now from constant use. As alot of tumors are in the back of ears of many users from wireless headphones 🎧
What country are you in? In the US there's the Meta AI feature and you can ask it all sorts of questions and get detailed responses. You can definitely get the weather from it. I think the AI feature is one of the most compelling things about these glasses but it's only available in the US currently.
“For the price”??? If you get just a regular polarized pair of Ray Bans you’d pay an average of $210. If the temples are carbon fiber that’s an extra $50. These Gen2’s are actually VERY affordable considering all the things you can do with it. I thought it’d be at least $500, but it starts at $299 and the highest is $379 So, scratch that comment. Also, it CAN tell you the weather and whatever else you need to know. You speak to META the same way you speak to Alexa. Battery use is 4-5 hours depending on use. The case, however, has 32 hours battery life which you did not mention. I have them and I’m very happy with them.
Correction.... meta AI voice assistant does provide information like weather and can also do most AI commands like... Write me a letter or Google info.... All you need to say is Hey Meta and command.
@@michaelbachler2716 Not sure what your point is. But many countries have serious public recording issues - Japan for example. The US is conditional, because some states have single-party recording laws and some do not. All that aside, recording people without permission can end in some vicious social outcomes.
If you want META to spy on you buy it. If not you don't need this gadget. People don't understand that using it means giving location and all recorded images to META. Picture quality is very low for photos use proper camera with big lenses and sensor. For social media? Use smartphone and you can decide when to give location or block it and upload when you want and if you want. Using this gadget is giving permission to control your privacy more than before by META. And what you have in return what wasn't invented before? NOTHING AT ALL. You will pay 300 USD to let META spy on you much better than before. Zuckerberg is very clever here, but you ? 😆
They need a snap in replaceable battery with a spare included, so you can keep going all day. And you need instant feedback on images, so they really need to be sent to your phone immediately. Also the AI is totally useless as it stands. But it has the potential to be a lot better once they roll out their upgraded AI they've promised. But then again who believes big companies and their promises these days ? As they stand I find them a bit of a let down, though the audio is much better than anticipated.

The glasses do come with a lens cleaning cloth on the opposite side of where the instructions were placed in the box.
Cleaning?

just bought these a few days ago. 60 seconds recording pisses me off
It has 3 minutes now
Cool review and breakdown, i might wait a while for the storage and battery life to increase before i venture down this road.
Thanks man! Definitely a wise choice. I love “wear” this technology is heading 😉
Finally, i never new if i had my glasses on or not, so glad they added a sound to tell me ive actually put them on.
Great video. You missed talking about doing sports with glasses and how the stabilization system behaves. I would like to see the glasses during a tennis match, for example.

I played 🎾 with them and recorded it in my review if you wanna see 😎
😅😅😅
60 second record time is laughable. They literally make 1tb memory sticks now.. There is no excuse for them using a tiny amount of storage.
Do these work with Apple Music or only Spotify?

@@LostInACookieJaryes it can be easily done.
Own a pair. Prescription (bifocal) and transition lenses included. Had them a couple l of months. LOVE THEM ❣️
Sounds cool but sounds like it's a lot of hassle to do simple things
Dude I also switch between contacts and glasses nice
The glasses just updated. You can now ask it simple questions like conversions, weather and general questions

need more than 60 seconds, may come in handy in keeping the cops honest.

Mine came with Cleaning Cloth 😊😊
ordered mine yesterday in belgium and it did come with a black cloth
That intro XDD I cannottt omg
There is a microfiber cloth included where the instruction manual and quick start guide is as already stated by other comments

Definitely can, but recently found it’s only for Americans. To Canadians, it’s just useless…
You sound like a meta employee.
Truth is it currently sucks. Dont buy on a promise.
There is a cleaning cloth!!! In the box with the user manual!!!!
Can I ask about size ? Is the regular size they recommend on site a good size for a male or should i go the XXL what size are yours

Just got these two weeks ago and I already had someone look at me funny when im using them for a call haha theyre great!!
4:42 what? Ibe transfered by folding in lots. Maybe you have to open it by folding it to make sure its on but you can wifi transfer while doing so
Jay I have the Stories, but don’t like Vertical video. I am use to taking horizontal stills…does the meta also do vertical photos? Thanks!
The transitions are nice. They are so clear you wouldn't know their translation. But then when they do go dark, there are darker than you'd think.
There are different levels in % of trasition lenses.
Hi, what size and lens color do you have here? TIA
how long do they take to charge in the case? because you didn't say it.
So, how long takes one shot video..?please
"Crispy Karen Content" haha! These glasses seem great for content creation and family videos!

Nice review! Did you end up getting the transition lenses or did you get the clear ones ?
Not yet! Decided I will get the clear ones in the new year so I can just wear it everyday with contacts 😀 follow up video may come!
Good choice to wear with lenses. You can not change the lens after Ray-Ban has installed your prescription glass. So paying 600€ and after you eye value's will change you glcan get a new glass for 600€ 😂
I'll probably do the same. I wear contacts too, and prefer the flexibility of when to wear them.@@TheTechVengers
Can i listen to TH-cam videos with this????
Do they stream to insta or fb at all?
I would like it to keep recording by it self and every 5 minute will restart recording and every 15 minute wil delete the videos if not saved manually
There’s a cleaning cloth in the package. Maybe you missed them in the box.
Where shall I get this product
Nice review tanks!
Great review man! Keep going :)
Thank you so much !! Appreciate ya!

That’s so good to know! I am in Canada and we get everything last 😞 so this makes total sense !
Are the lenses on glasses able to be modified into prescription lenses through our healthcare?
What size did you get?? 😅
I blacked out my LED
They need a geolocation thing in em
Can you use the glasses outside of the Meta View App?
Yes, for calls and music, but no pictures
It'll be nice if it had at least an hour record time
3 min video would be great
Mine came with a cloth. Check your box again.
mine had a cleaning cloth tho
It does come with a cleaning cloth. Another reviewer found it in the box.
Wow I got ripped off :( mine didn’t have any
It should be on the top opening of the box on the right side and the instruction manual is on the left
Is their a monthly charge for the application?
Nope! No subscriptions
Mine came with a cleaning cloth
Mines let me record for 3 mins
They have a cleaning cloth in the box
Which lenses did you get? I have the transition lenses they're terrible.
Why are they’re terrible?
@JHsadler They transition very slowly so it takes time to be effective. They don't get very dark. They don't transition to dark while driving a car.
@@Wes61 I’m guessing that’s because they require UV light to transition and car glass blocks UV light. That’s annoying
@@JHsadler That would be why. I would expect them to be clear 99% of the time.
Can I change the glass to a medical one
Yes
0:55 thank you! I wear prescription glasses and was going to ask if they had that. Now knowing that is an option, I may go for it.
Any idea of how the audio would be in a motorcycle with a helmet on?
Should be decent. Another TH-camr did sound test with beanie on and he said it was better than using it open ear.

All together with new eye exam, frame, and transition lenses will run you just over $900. Totally worth it.
Bro is in Brampton
I was in 100% and then 60 second max and under 4 hours battery life... I am out
Just ordered my, got them with transition lenses for $212
The regular ray ban are $210. Dammm
Yeah well these are smart glasses.
Correction.... meta AI voice assistant does provide information like weather and can also do most AI commands like... Write me a letter or Google info.... All you need to say is Hey Meta and command.
There is only one camera lens not two !!!
Not buying it until it will record videos longer
Yea these glasses are probably going to be getting removed from peoples faces more often than not. Do people not remember google glasses?
These has been out for years. This is already gen 2
Privacy. Legal. Creepiness. Not a technical issue. If someone pulls out a smartphone, you can see it and react. But these are concealed.
Privacy really wonderful. Pull out there phones and start recording you even if you don't know this

Maximum 60 seconds??? Isn't that just useless?
yea that should definitely change and it would be easy for them with a software update
60 second video? Pass
The battery life very disappointing!!!!
for sure! I hope they improve this with a new model soon!

Lol they arent gonna do any of this.
Why would I want a product that informs strangers that I am using it? Screw you RayBan!
