The short answer
For most people, the Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) are the AI glasses to buy. They look like normal Wayfarers, take 3K video with a 12 MP camera, play music through open-ear speakers and let you ask Meta AI about what you are looking at. Battery doubled over the first generation, to up to 8 hours.
Athletes should get the Oakley Meta Vanguard: a wraparound sport design, IP67 water resistance, a wider 122° camera and Garmin and Strava stats on your videos. If you would rather use ChatGPT or Gemini than Meta AI, the Rokid AI Glasses Style support both.
Want no camera at all? Echo Frames put Alexa, calls and music in a regular pair of frames. And if what you really want is a giant screen for movies and gaming, XREAL One Pro glasses are a different kind of smart glasses: a 171-inch virtual display, not an AI assistant.
