Ray-Ban Meta glasses are now coming to India – combining iconic style and cutting-edge technology to let people stay present and connected to who and what they care about most. Priced starting at INR 29,900/-, pre-orders begin today on Ray-Ban.com and the collection will be available at Ray-Ban.com and leading optical and sunglass stores across the country from May 19.
With Meta AI integrated, you can simply say, “Hey Meta” and ask questions about the world around you—learn about a historic site in Mumbai or even get cooking tips based on ingredients in your kitchen. Whether you’re streaming music or podcasts, taking calls, or going live on Instagram or Facebook, Ray-Ban Meta glasses are the perfect companion that lets you do it all – while keeping your hands free.
When traveling to a new country and need to ask for directions to the train station or you’re spending quality time with a family member and need to break the language barrier, you can hold seamless conversations across English, French, Italian, and Spanish—even when you’re on airplane mode, if you’ve downloaded the language pack in advance. When you’re speaking to someone in one of those languages, you’ll hear what they say in your preferred language through the glasses in real time, and they can view a translated transcript of the conversation on your phone or hear through their phone. To get started, just say, “Hey Meta, start live translation.”
A Style for Every Personality
The Ray-Ban Meta glasses collection comes in the timeless Wayfarer style you already know and love (in standard and large sizes), plus Skyler, a more inclusive and universal fitting design now available in Shiny Chalky Grey. Available in a full suite of sun, clear, polarized or Transitions®, we’ve also designed Ray-Ban Meta glasses to be prescription lens-compatible.
Smarter Integration with the Meta AI App
And to integrate all our most powerful AI experiences, Ray-Ban Meta glasses are paired with the newly launched Meta AI app, which will include additional AI features directly in the app that enhance your Ray-Ban Meta glasses experience. Start a conversation with Meta AI on your glasses, then access it in your history tab from the app to pick up where you left off. You can also get creative—after importing photos from your glasses, ask Meta AI in the app to add, remove, or change parts of the image. Glasses have emerged as the most exciting new hardware category of the AI era with Ray-Ban Meta glasses leading the way in defining what’s possible.
Coming soon, you will be able to send and receive direct messages, photos, audio calls, and video calls from Instagram hands-free on their glasses. This joins being able to make calls and send messages through WhatsApp and Messenger, as well as the native messaging app on iPhone or Android phones – ideal for staying connected on your morning commute or weekend hikes. Just say, “Hey Meta, send a picture to Priya on WhatsApp.”
We’re also expanding access to music apps like Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music and Shazam. So, you’ll be able to ask Meta AI to play music and listen to your favorite tunes anywhere as long as your default language is set to English. Ask Meta AI to play your favorite artist or identify the song you heard playing in a café: “Hey Meta, what’s this song?” Or “Hey Meta, play the latest Bollywood songs”
We can’t wait for more people in India to try it and get in on the action!
