r/MetaRayBanDisplay

Wore the displays and i even kept my eyes closed and i still see a white square tye size of the display when i close my eyes. The tint on that area is not blocking the tanning bed light, i wore the non display with no issues.

I’m trying to purchase Displays with prescription lenses using the QR code link I was given after my try-on session, but when trying to pay with my FSA card, I’m getting an error with my payment.

I input my rx and all, double-checked my card number and info, and nothing.

Any suggestions?

• What features do you find the most useful despite having less features than the US Meta accounts? Or are the features that are available here the same as the features available in the US?
• When setting up your Display glasses, did you use an account that already exists here or did you have to set it up with a VPN like I have heard others had to do for the features?
• For the rest of the world, What are your favourite use cases for the Display Ray Bans? I have the Gen 1 Ray Ban Metas so I can't wait till the Displays arrive!

I've been thinking a lot about where this category is going, and I'd love to hear from people who actually wear or follow smart glasses.

1. What's missing from current smart glasses?

Every product launch leads with the same things AI assistants, cameras, translation, notifications. But are these really what's missing? Or is something else broken that nobody's fixing?

2. Function vs form: what wins for you?

Be honest. Would you sacrifice features for glasses that actually look good and come in colors that aren't black or tortoise? Or are features non-negotiable, even if it means wearing something that screams "tech gadget"?

I keep noticing the entire industry Meta, Even, Rokid, Brilliant, Halliday, Snap, Mira defaults to the same minimalist black aesthetic. Glasses are eyewear. Eyewear is identity. Why does smart eyewear forget that?

3. Are smart glasses the next personal computer?

Phones didn't replace PCs but everyone has one now. Is that what's coming for glasses? A new personal device that doesn't replace the phone, but ends up on every face?

Or are smart glasses going to stay a niche accessory like smartwatches useful but never essential?

Genuinely curious. Not trying to sell anything. Just trying to understand what people actually think

For those who don't know, Notification Mirroring is hopefully releasing soon. Not sure if it was intentionally given out to a small number of users, or if it was accidentally given to some users early, but for those who have it, or had it, I have a question about it:

When you dismissed the notification in your glasses, did it also dismiss, or otherwise cause some sort of state change on your phone?

I imagine this could differ between Android an iOS, but if the notifications do dismiss or make any state change on your phone, that could be used as a way of detecting user input on the displays, which would provide both, a way to show information on the display, and receive input from the display. It would be something to start building 3rd party apps that can utilize the display in some way, even if very limited.

Just noticed last couple of days battery life is abysmal just as the previous update. Anything official from support? I was good for like 2 weeks now they die within 3-4 hours tops with little to no use.

Update: Suddenly everything is back to normal…. So strange….

i am in a very populate area aka new jersey near philly. there are two malls, each not in nj and an hour drive to each. i occasionally remember to try to get an appointment every few months and put in a request and do not hear back ... ?
