Meta launches $299 AI‑powered Meta Glasses with EssilorLuxottica

Meta announced the release of Meta Glasses, a new line of AI‑enabled smart eyewear developed with EssilorLuxottica. The collection is priced from US $299 and offers three frame families – Adventurer, Fury and a Kylie Jenner‑co‑designed version – with over 26 style combinations and prescription lens options via the Rx Lens Swap program.

The glasses feature a 12 MP camera capable of 3K video at 30 fps, open‑ear speakers, a five‑microphone array, and up to eight hours of battery life; a folding charging case extends use to roughly 40‑48 hours. They run Meta AI powered by the Muse Spark model, supporting real‑time translation in 14 languages (including Japanese, Mandarin, Hindi and Korean) and hands‑free queries. Upcoming software updates will add Dynamic Photo, pedestrian navigation and additional language support.

Meta Glasses are available for pre‑order in the United States and will ship later in the year, with sales already opened in Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and numerous European markets such as France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden and Norway. A higher‑priced Starfire variant featuring exclusive Kylie Jenner design details is priced at US $399.
