How long are companies like Meta going to try to make Smart glasses happen?


Meta released 7,500 pairs of transparent glasses, and I secured a pair that impressed me with its camera, Meta AI responses, and audio playback performance.

Like the bone conduction headphones I use for running, the Ray-Ban glasses leave my ears open for better awareness of my surroundings, and the sound quality is good for podcasts and music. They allow me to wear the glasses both indoors, where I listen to music, make hands-free inquiries with Meta AI, and handle calls and messaging, and outdoors, where I would normally switch to sunglasses.
