No longer called Stories, the new smart glasses feature a new look and can be pre-ordered for $300.
The Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses feature improved audio, with custom-designed speakers that are about 50% louder and offer more bass for music, calls, and podcasts. Meta says you’ll even be able to hear them
through windy and noisy traffic. The microphone has also been updated: five around the chassis, including one near your nose so that it captures your voice right as it leaves your mouth. For comparison, the Ray-Ban Stories only had one microphone, so it’s four times the coverage this time around.The Meta Smart Glasses have a 12-MP ultra-wide camera capable of recording 1080p videos up to 60 seconds, making it easy to take passive B-roll of life and the pursuit of happiness.
The Meta Smart Glasses run on a Snapdragon AR1 Gen 1 processor rather than the second-gen variant like the new. It’s IPX4 water-resistant, which means it can handle light water splashes. You could wear these on a boat. But you’d have to switch to a regular pair of gas station-procured sunnies if you were planning on jumping into the water.The new glasses only get 4-6 hours of battery life but Meta says the included case can charge them up to 8 times.
