Mark Zuckerberg Several months ago, reports emerged that Meta was looking to expand beyond its current smart glasses lineup into sportier versions. Now the glasses are officially here.

Staying true to the brand, the Meta version of the glasses keeps the form factor Oakley is known for, with a more flexible and rugged design that still allows athletes to take advantage of the smart glasses' capabilities, such as filming, l

Meta's Oakley Smart Glasses Have 3K Video—Watch Out, Ray-Ban

wired.com Verity Burns 2026-03-10 10:17:11

When Meta launched the second generation of its Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses in late 2023, few predicted the success that lay ahead for the collaboration—perhaps not even Meta itself. But now, with more than two million sales under its belt, Meta has been looking for a way to widen its partnership with eyewear giant and Ray-Ban owner EssilorLuxottica and keep up the momentum. The answer it seems was staring them in the face: a collaboration with the company’s second largest brand, Oakley. “We la

I changed 12 settings on my Android phone to significantly improve the battery life

Kerry Wan/ZDNET I've spent large portions of my life looking for ways to extend the battery life on my Android phones. Admittedly, that sounds rather dramatic, but growing up with only budget models meant I was constantly tweaking device settings to squeeze every bit of juice out of their batteries. Thanks to this micromanaging, I successfully pushed the batteries on all my past smartphones to their absolute limit. I don't want to hoard this knowledge to myself, so I've decided to share it wit

How to turn off ACR on your TV (and what your TV stops tracking when you do)

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Did you know that whenever you turn on your smart TV, you invite an unseen guest to watch it with you? These days, most popular TV models utilize automatic content recognition (ACR), a form of ad surveillance technology that gathers information about everything you watch and transmits it to a centralized database. Manufacturers then use your data to identify your viewing preferences, enabling them to deliver highly targeted ads. Also: 184 million passwords for Google, Microsof

How a 30-year-old techno-thriller predicted our digital isolation

How much will you trust an AI chatbot powered by Meta to be your friend? Answers to this may vary. Even if you won’t, other people are already making close connections with “AI companions” or “falling in love” with ChatGPT. The rise of “cognitive offloading”—of people asking AI to do their critical thinking for them—is already well underway, with many high school and college students admitting to a deep reliance on the technology.
