Meta Ray-Ban Display hands-on: Discreet and intuitive

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-19 00:23:34

I've been testing smart glasses for almost a decade. And in that time, one of the questions I've been asked the most is "oh, but can you see anything in them?" For years, I had to explain that no, glasses like that don't really exist yet. That's no longer the case. And while I've seen a bunch of glasses over the last year that have some kind of display, the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses feel the closest to fulfilling what so many people envision when they hear the words "smart glasses."

Police arrested more than a dozen New York state and city elected officials Thursday at 26 Federal Plaza, the Manhattan immigration court and an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) field office, many as they pressed to gain access to the building’s 10th-floor lockup, where recent court rulings—including a temporary restraining order—directed ICE not to cram immigrants into overcrowded, unsanitary conditions. The lawmakers and other officials, arrested around 3:45 pm local time, say they w

Mark Zuckerberg Humiliated as AI Glasses Debut Fails in Front of Huge Crowd

On Wednesday, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg unveiled a slew of new augmented reality glasses, including what he claimed to be the "first AI glasses with high resolution," a new $799 version of its Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses that features a tiny screen that's viewable to the wearer. But it didn't take long for the company's MetaConnect 2025 keynote to descend into chaos.

Meta’s New Smart Glasses Got a Subtle Name Change. It Speaks Volumes About What’s Wrong With Them

wired.com Verity Burns 2025-09-21 08:00:00

In the early days of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg and his team famously adopted the motto “Move fast and break things.” Posters with the phrase reportedly adorned the company’s Silicon Valley headquarters, alongside other, similar sentiments like “Done is better than perfect,” and “Fail quicker.” The focus for the young company was clear: Being first was more important than getting it right first time. As the company grew, Zuckerberg—in an interview with WIRED— started to distance himself from, or
