Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2 Smart Glasses Reduced in Sale
The Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2 Wayfarer Smart Glasses have received their first recorded discount during the Memorial Day sales period in the United States. The device is currently listed on Amazon for US$390.15, reduced from US$459.
The discounted price is the lowest recorded price for the second-generation smart glasses since their release. The Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Smart Glasses combine the Wayfarer sunglasses frame with Meta AI features that support photography, calls and music playback.
The sale marks the first reported reduction for the Gen 2 version of the glasses. The offer appeared during the Memorial Day sales period, which includes discounts across several technology and retail categories.
The Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2 glasses allow users to take photographs and record point-of-view video while wearing the device. The glasses also support phone calls and music listening functions.
A report discussing the Gen 2 model noted the glasses’ style, battery performance, and improved video capabilities as compared with the earlier version. Battery life was reported to last for up to eight hours during mixed use.
The device uses a 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera system. The Gen 2 version supports 3K video recording, which is twice the resolution of the first-generation model.
The 3K video setting is not enabled automatically. Users must activate the feature in the settings menu.
The camera remains one of the main features that set the Ray-Ban Meta glasses apart from standard smart audio wearables. The glasses support hands-free image and video capture while also providing audio playback and calling features.
The report also noted that the audio functions operate without direct contact with the ears. However, the sound quality and active noise cancellation performance were reported to fall short of leading wireless earbuds.
The Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2 glasses have also appeared inside broader Memorial Day technology sale coverage published by several outlets during the past week.
Other reports published in May also referenced discounts on Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses at retailers such as Amazon and Best Buy. Some offers included reductions on both the first-generation and second-generation models.
The second-generation glasses are available in the Wayfarer design, which carries over the earlier model’s design. The latest version includes improvements in video quality and battery performance in comparison to the previous release.
The current Memorial Day offer applies to the Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2 Wayfarer Smart Glasses listing on Amazon. No information has been provided regarding how long the discounted price will remain available.
