Promotions continue around the advent of Meta’s Futuristic Hypernoova (aka Celeste) Smart Glasses, allegedly adding a small head-up display to an eye and a nerve restband (((Cyrus) To control the interface. These will report to be around $ 800 and will be announced Meta Connect on 17 September,
Some have also started calling them the next version of the current Meta Ray-Ban Smart Glasses. However, both are Meta CEOs Mark Zuckerberg and CTO Andrew Bosworth Fudge This meta will release this decline many products in smart glasses location. And CEO of Essilorloxotica (manufacturer of ray-bans), Francesco Milli, Said In the beginning of 2025, more than 2 million units of Meta Ray-Ben were already sold and the company was preparing to sell 10 million units annually by the end of 2026.

All this happens with this decline for the advanced version of $ 300 to $ 400 audio-online meta ray-bamboo-and the meta is being announced with future-oriented hypernova glass in connect.
For the last two years, I have been the daily user of Meta Ray-Ben for audio calls, listening to podcasts and music, and taking photos. I will connect to Meta Connect on September 17 and will see everything to unveil the meta. Here is a list of practical upgrades that will make Mata’s AI glass even more useful and usable.
1. Battery doubling life
Meta Ray-Ban has been officially rated for four-hour battery life. However, if you close to listen to the “hey meta” prompt (and press the right stem for a long time to activate it instead), you can grow that very importantly. This is true if you are mostly using smart glass for phone calls, listening to audio, and perhaps some AI indicates.

However, once you start taking a bunch of photos and record several videos, the battery can be completely reduced by one to two hours. Of course, you can pop back them back in the case and charge them up to 50% in about 20 minutes or get a full fee in more than an hour. Meta Claim You can get eight full allegations of glasses from a fully charged case.
But what is the requirement of Meta Ray-Bans, Meta Okla, released in July 2025, has more battery life at the level of smart glass. They are rated for eight -hour battery life by meta, and initial reports from critics show that they are running for three to four hours under heavy video and photo use. Since we know that this type of battery life is possible in similar products, so there is a long life that we should expect in the new Meta Re-Ben.
2. Shoot horizontal photos and videos
The most pleasant surprise of the Meta Ray-Bans launched in 2023 became the viability of photos and videos-which was equivalent to the smartphone camera from 3-4 years ago. In other words, something on the lines of an iPhone 11 or 12 cameras.
But once we all came to know that these photos were surprisingly useable – and that it was super helpful to be able to take photos without drawing our phone – we quickly ran to the biggest defect of the camera. It only shoots in vertical / portrait mode.

Sure, you can hack it by beating 90 degrees vertical 90 degrees on the ground and then by clicking on the shutter on your glasses. But no one wants to do this all the time, and it defeats the purpose of having a disinterested camera. No, what is the need for the next meta ray-ban is the option to shoot horizontal photos and videos. This will increase the purpose and utility of these smart glasses to capture the material dramatically.
3. Add audio note-teching
A feature that is not currently in Meta Ray-Bans, but you can find on other smart glasses, a quick audio note is the option to record. For example, even realities are a pair of G1 smart glasses that offer this functionality today.
It would be very good to trigger the meta AI to take a note, and then you can speak and capture the audio while an LLM speech-to-Text conversion and saves both audio and text in a note that you can easily access on your phone.
4. Increase camera quality
The camera on the meta ray-ban shoots 12MP and shoots photos in a 3×4 aspect ratio with a resolution of 3024 x 4032 pixels. It captures the video at about 1080p quality and a resolution around 1376 x 1840. When he launched in 2023, the quality of that camera was honorable.
However, in the last two years, phone cameras have made some big jump. And of us who have taken a lot of photos and videos on Meta Ray-Ben have fled the boundaries of old camera sensors. It would be helpful to have a camera that has better low-light capabilities, and high resolution video will be terrible so that we can harvest.
Too: Your Ray -Ban Meta Smart Glasses get just two important upgrade for free – what they do
Since the Meta Okle Glasses was recently launched with 3K videos (usually around 2300 x 3100 pixels), which hopes that the third-round Meta Re-Ben will also present at least 3K videos. Photo resolution on Meta Okle Glass remained the same. It would be very good to see that the Meta Ray-Ban was upgraded to 3.0-although it will also be bigger and slow to transfer files, but we will talk about it.
5. Improve photo and video transfer
One of the most strange purpose challenges with the meta ray-ban is transferring photos and videos you captured on your phone. You have to connect your phone to glasses as your Wi-Fi connection, and then this file transfer and disconnects. Meta software tries to streamline and automate it, but you still have to do it every time you transfer a file. It is best and sometimes there is a risk of failure.

This would be much better if the next-jeeta ray-bans used a technique such as Wi-Fi direct or combination of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi 6E, such as Snapdragon XR 2+ gene 2 chip that will power the future Samsung/Google Glass. This strange Wi-Fi connection will allow direct transfer of photos and videos without dancing to the current insect ray-bamboo. In general, it will prepare glasses to be more of a full-time accessory rather than only sometimes sometimes used devices.
Last word
There are other things that I like to see in the next version of Audio-Oonely Meta Ray-Ben-such as a waterproofing upgrade from the IPX4, support for more languages ​​in live translation, when you are still wearing glasses, an option to use a charging option, and calls and summits and using a grantful notes and summons.
But if Meta had to integrate the five features mentioned above in its next generation audio smart glasses, I suspect that they will find over 10 million people who are interested in wearing them.
