Meta is reportedly adding displays to its Ray-Ban smart glasses

Meta plans to add displays to Ray-Ban glasses for AI notifications in 2025.

: Meta is reportedly planning to introduce displays in its Ray-Ban smart glasses. This feature is anticipated to arrive in the second half of 2025. The small screens will primarily display notifications and responses from Meta's AI assistant. While not aiming for mixed reality, this addition follows the positive reception of the upcoming Orion AR glasses.

Meta is reportedly working on integrating display screens into its line of Ray-Ban smart glasses. These mini-screens are anticipated to appear in upcoming versions, potentially by the second half of 2025. The new feature is expected to show notifications and interact with Meta’s AI virtual assistant, enhancing user engagement while maintaining simplicity.

The display addition is not intended to transform the Ray-Ban smart glasses into full mixed-reality devices. Meta is simultaneously developing the Orion AR glasses, which will offer more advanced augmented reality features and have received positive market feedback. Recent developments indicate that these AR glasses are set for a commercial launch, whereas Ray-Ban enhancements aim to bolster the efficiency of everyday tasks.

The current Ray-Ban smart glasses already impress with their sleek design and features like in-ear speakers, cameras, and microphones. Users particularly benefit from the ease with which they can take spontaneous photos, like snapping quick images of pets. The potential introduction of display screens aims to augment these glasses with minimal impact on their simplistic and functional design.
