Meta's Summer Sale has discounted Ray-Ban's smart glasses, with the original model starting at $224.25, a $74 reduction, and the second-gen model available for $322.25, a $57 discount. Both models offer a similar core experience, featuring hands-free photo and video capture, livestreaming, and open-ear headphones, as well as access to Meta's AI assistant features. The main difference between the two models is the second-gen's improved video quality, shooting 3K video at 30fps, and longer battery life, lasting up to eight hours with heavy use. These discounts are available at Amazon, Best Buy, and directly from Meta until May 26th.
