Want to buy Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses? How to book a demo first (before it's too late)


Booking a slot at Best Buy, LensCrafters, Sunglass Hut, and Ray-Ban stores will be the only way to purchase Meta Ray-Ban Display at launch on Sep. 30. And delays have already set in.

When I typed in various zip codes in New York, Chicago, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, there were a lot more stores offering demos but the earliest open slot I found was October 8. This is likely one way that Meta is dealing with the constrained supply of its next-generation product, which integrates several breakthrough technologies, including a monocular LCOS display and an EMG wristband for neural input. Supply chain analyst Ming Chi Kuo has stated that Meta only plans to manufacture 150,000-200,000 units of the glasses over the next two years.
