In Meta Connect 2025, the company’s biggest event of the year, Mark Zuckerberg unveiled three new smart glasses: second generation Ray-Bain Meta, Meta Ray-Ban display and Restband Controller, and Okle Meta Mohra.
Meta says it has sold 2 million of first generation Ray-Ban Meta Smart glasses, and earlier this year, Meta unveiled its latest AI-operated smart glasses with Okle, designed for athletes. Silicon Valley is bending heavily in AI Wearbals, and is one of the companies leading to the meta charge.
To regain your leg in the AI race with Meta and sell more hardware, the company had a lot at stake during Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta Connect 2025 Keenote. Overall, Meta demonstrated some very impressive technology-a special highlight, a special highlight.
And yet, in a twist, which reminded of HBO’s “Silicon Valley”, Zuckerberg’s demo of AI abilities on Ray-Ban Metas failed. Woops!
Cooking content when sharing live video feeds of the manufacturer Jack mankuso At the Meta headquarters, Zuckerberg asked the chef to showcase how his ray-bain meta glass could whip them a Korean-inspired steak sauce.
“I love you setup here, with soy sauce and other ingredients. How can I help?” Chipper Meta AI asked with voice.
Mancuso sought a recipe for a Korean-inspired stake sauce, and AI’s voice began to list the materials they need-but MANCUSO knows that they need to keep the demo successful, so they interrupt and asks, “What do I do before?”

After a moment of silence that dragged a little longer, Mankuso repeated, “What should I do before?”
“You have already combined the base material, so now do a pear clipping to add to the sauce,” AI said. But he had not yet combined the base material, because he had not started making a recipe, so the question of what to do before.
Mancuso again asked the same question, and AI reacted the same. The audience laughs.
“I think Wi-Fi can be messed up-you back, mark!” Mancuso said.
“You know that all this is good. The irony of the whole thing is that you spend years in creating technology, and then the day’s Wi-Fi … catch you,” Zuckerberg said. “Anyway, we will see what he made later.”
The whole conversation was a bit strange, especially since the issue was not with Wi-Fi. But even when things are going on according to the plan, these presentations may feel a little hockey … Like the end of Kenot, when Zuckerberg and diplically ran together in the sunset together, wearing their meta okle wangards. This was to be a busy day for the mark, so perhaps he needed an excuse to make some cardio in his program.
Meta unveiled its second generation Ray-Ban Meta GlassesWhich first started in 2023. In this sprotted model, the battery life of its predecessor is doubled, which is now running for eight hours of mixed use on a charge. The second generation glasses also support Ultra HD3K video recording, which the company says that the final model is twice as fast as the model.
Meta’s smart glasses are also getting some new features with the release of the second generation Ray-Ban Metas, such as conversation focus, which will be available on Ray-Ban Meta and Okle Meta HSTN Glass.
“If you are eating in a hot new restaurant, come on the train, or holding the latest set of your favorite DJ, the conversation focus uses the open-air speaker of your AI glass, to raise the voice of the person you are talking to.”
The conversation focus is not yet out, so we cannot say to make sure whether it will help for your next night.
Live AI feature – Joe Meta failed to demo on stage properly – is also on its way. But it is so energy-intensive that you can use it for only one or two hours.
“As we optimize battery and energy efficiency, Meta AI will infection with something that you always indicate with a Wake word for a available accessory,” the company said.
The second generation Ray-Ban Meta Glass costs $ 379.
Meta Ray-Ban Display Smart Glass is the most influential glasses unveiled by Meta to date, with an underlying performance for apps, alerts and instructions on the right lens. But to separate this pair of smart glasses, it is also a restband controller, meta neural band.
It allows Ristband Meta to show a little to spend so much time (and money) in its reality labs division, which is notorious for losing billions of dollars a quarter.
The visually, the meta neural band looks like a fitbit without a screen. It is powered by Surface electromography (Semg), which can lift minutes on hand gestures and small movements. It is far more sophisticated than the wrist gesture on an apple clock. Users can hold their fingers together and write text messages as they were holding a pen and “writing” the text. This means that you can see a WhatsApp message on your right glasses lens, then answer it by “writing” your response.
For now, the Chashma Meta supports the apps, but the company will have to support a variety of apps in the future, so that they are looking for adoption. Like apple and GoogleMeta is betting that smart glasses can cut the market share of smartphones in the future – but forcing such a major cultural change would be a major challenge.
The Meta Ray-Ban display, which comes with a meta neural band, will cost $ 799 and launch on 30 September.
For the recession between us, wearing smart glasses and handwriting in the air is difficult to send a text message. But Okle Meta Mohra Smart Glasses, designed for athletes, offer the most consistent use case yet for such techniques.
Bikers, trail runs, and skier can take a picture of their adventure without taking out their phone; Open-air speakers of glasses can play music during your workouts, and even link with apps such as straws and garmins to relay your data. Like other new glasses, the pawn model is also A-capable.
Unlike other models of meta smart glasses, Okle Meta Wangards has just an integrated front lens with a camera in the middle instead of two lenses on both sides – it is a design that creates a more technical understanding, and it is a fashion statement that you can pull into athletic ievier, but not in a gesture. The new glasses can capture the video up to 3K resolution and introduce a 122-megapixel camera with a 122-degree wide-angle-lens.
Glasses have an IP67 dust and water resistance rating for use during intensive workouts. Meta states that the rapheround design of the glasses has Okle Prajam lens technology, designed to block sun, air and dust.
As long as you are not an ultramenton runner, these glasses will easily go into your entire workouts. Glasses can live with nine hours, or six hours of continuous music playback. But the charging case that comes with glasses can provide an additional 36 hours of fee when leaving. Meta claims that the charging case can quickly charge the glasses 50% in 20 minutes.
Okle Meta Mohra Chashma goes on retail for $ 499 and on sale on 21 October.
On the VR front, Meta did not release any new quest headset as part of this year’s connect. Even though the conference and the company has been named after the metavors, we learned only about a few updates for its VR, such as hypersscape, which would allow the developers and creators to create photorialistic spaces in virtual reality.
Meta is allegedly developing An ultralight VR headset For launch by the end of 2026, so perhaps we will see that the next meta will come to the connect event.
