But with Wednesday's announcement of the Meta Ray-Ban Display smart glasses, it feels like some of that old mentality might have started to creep back in. He then immediately outlined some “clear values” that Meta holds sacrosanct for smart glasses. Number-one for Zuckerberg was “they need to be great glasses first” with “refined aesthetics” that “shave every millimeter” from the hardware. I got a chance to demo the Meta Ray-Ban Display, ahead of Meta Connect, at a preview event in London. Meta has labeled them the “world’s most advanced AI glasses,” and having tried them, it‘s easy to agree.
