The Next Ray-Ban Meta Glasses Will Reportedly Get A HUD This Year

The Financial Times has reported that the new Ray-Ban Meta glasses, featuring a small heads-up display (HUD), will be released later this year. This contradicts an earlier report by The Information, which claimed that Meta's HUD glasses would arrive in 2025, without Ray-Ban styling, due to design disagreements. However, Meta has extended its partnership with EssilorLuxottica, the owner of Ray-Ban, into the next decade, suggesting that they might have resolved these issues. The new HUD feature could display notifications, text from the Meta AI assistant, and help users frame photos. Despite this development, Meta plans to continue offering affordable audio-only smart glasses, as Mark Zuckerberg believes they hold significant potential. Current Ray-Ban Meta glasses have been very successful, but it remains to be seen if consumers will embrace the added bulk for a small display. For the full story, visit UploadVR.
