Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) Now With Up to 2X the Battery Life and Better Video Capture

Takeaways

  • The world’s best-selling AI glasses* just got better — we’re introducing Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2), the same stylish AI glasses you love with, now with new features.
  • Ray-Ban Meta glasses (Gen 2) feature extended battery life, 3K Ultra HD video capture, new Meta AI features, and more.

Ray-Ban Meta glasses have become the #1 selling AI glasses in the world, with millions of units sold since launch. People love them — as a hands-free camera for life’s most important moments, a convenient AI assistant, a real-time translator, and an open-ear audio player that lets you stay engaged with your surroundings, all within iconic styles that are perfect for everyday wear. 

Today, we’re excited to bring you Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2), which maintains all the features you love, but with some key under-the-hood improvements that will make them an even better companion.

Better Battery Life

Ray-Ban Meta glasses (Gen 2) feature an enhanced battery life. A fully-charged pair of Ray-Ban Meta glasses (Gen 2) can last up to eight hours with typical use. That’s almost twice the battery life of Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 1), making them perfect for morning-to-night music festivals or your outdoor adventures. 

You can charge Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) up to 50% in just 20 minutes, and Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) comes with a charging case that provides an additional 48 hours of charging on-the-go. Capture more photos and videos, make more memories, and spend less time charging.

Enhanced Video, New Meta AI Features, and More Languages on Live Translation

We’ve added 3K Ultra HD video capture to Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2), enabling you to take sharper, smoother, and more vivid videos with ultrawide HDR, up to 60 frames per second, and more than twice as many pixels as the previous generation. And later this fall, hands-free filming is getting upgraded across all of our AI glasses with two new capture settings: hyperlapse and slow motion.

At Connect, we revealed conversation focus, a new feature coming soon to our AI glasses. Conversation focus uses the glasses’ open-ear speakers to amplify the voice of the person you’re talking to, helping distinguish it from ambient background noise in cafes and restaurants, parks, and other busy places. Conversation focus will soon be available as a software update on Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta HSTN glasses

We’re also expanding live translation to support German and Portuguese starting today. Soon, you’ll be able to have back-and-forth conversations between six languages — even when you’re in airplane mode, so long as you’ve downloaded the language pack in advance. 

Plus, we’re bringing Ray-Ban Meta to more countries than ever before. You can now order Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) in Switzerland and the Netherlands, and we’ll be bringing them to Brazil soon. 

New Frame Styles

Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) lets you match your look to your lifestyle, whether you prefer the legendary Wayfarer, the modern Skyler, or the popular Headliner. Starting today, you’ll be able to get Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) in some of the most popular style-and-color combinations, plus three new limited-time-only seasonal colors, available now.
