Ray-Ban Meta Audio, the newest pair in Meta's lineup of smart glasses, is now on sale in two Ray-Ban styles. Meta calls them its first audio glasses and leads with comfort and battery life.

Prices start at $349 in the US, Meta says. Ray-Ban Meta Audio is sold through Meta.com, Ray-Ban.com, Ray-Ban stores, Meta Lab stores, EssilorLuxottica's own retail locations and select third-party retailers.

Battery is the headline spec on Ray-Ban Meta Audio. Meta quotes up to 12 hours on a charge and up to 6 hours of continuous audio playback, with the included case adding as much as 48 hours more. A fast charge reaches 50% in 22 minutes, per the company. Meta does not say what usage produces the 12-hour figure, so the continuous-playback number is the safer one for heavy listeners.

The Ray-Ban Meta Audio frames weigh 43 grams, which Meta calls its lightest and slimmest AI glasses so far. Comfort additions include over-extension hinges, professional-adjustable temple tips and, depending on the style, swappable or adjustable nose pads.

Buyers choose between Clubmaster, a retro-inspired shape, and Burbank. Across the two there are 23 frame and lens combinations, and every one can be ordered with prescription lenses. That option is the practical draw for people who already wear glasses all day and want speakers built into the frames.

Meta introduced Ray-Ban Meta Audio at Meta Connect 2026 and says it expects to offer more than 100 AI-glasses options by the end of the year through its EssilorLuxottica partnership. A single product line is turning into a catalog, and the question for each new model is who it suits rather than whether it is the latest.
