Meta and Oakley Launch Sporty, High-Priced Smart Glasses
Meta, the company behind Facebook, has teamed up with Oakley to make new smart glasses.
These glasses are designed for sports and have a better camera and speakers than before.
They are also water-resistant.
You can record videos hands-free, and the battery lasts longer, about 8 hours.
But, they cost almost twice as much as the first model.
Meta is also planning to create more versions of the glasses with other brands.
There are competitors like Google, Apple, and Snap also working on similar products.
Meta partnered with Oakley to release new AI-powered smart glasses.
The new smart glasses are sport-focused and feature a high-res camera and louder speakers.
The glasses have an IPX4 water resistance rating.
Meta claims the glasses can run for up to 8 hours on regular use.
The Meta Oakley smart glasses will cost $499 and are available for pre-order on July 11th in the US.
