Community Reviews

Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2 smart glasses stand out as easy, casual POV cameras that also work as sunglasses and audio glasses. The upgraded battery life and ultra wide 3K video are the main Gen 2 improvements, and the footage is described as solid for assembly clips, outdoor sports, and short highlight videos. Recording is limited to vertical video, with 3 minute, 1 minute, and 30 second modes, so longer captures can feel awkward. The bright recording LED cannot be disabled, and privacy concerns remain a real drawback. A practical pick if short, hands free clips matter more than stealth or horizontal video.

  • Creators filming POV assembly clips, because the vertical 3K footage is described as looking good and the short recording modes stitch quickly.

  • Outdoor exercisers and casual sports users, because the glasses work like a lightweight camera with sunglasses and headphones while handling grip and water well.

  • Wearers who want audio calls plus occasional photos, because the glasses handle calls and quick snapshots without needing a separate camera.

  • Parents or event shooters who need long horizontal clips, because recording is vertical only and longer videos are awkward without switching to a phone.

  • People who want discreet recording, because the bright recording LED cannot be disabled and makes the glasses less covert than a phone.

  • Privacy-sensitive wearers, because recordings may be reviewed by people and can capture private details without obscuring faces.

  • Users expecting dependable battery life over years, because Gen 1 batteries died at the 24-month mark and Gen 2 battery life is still described as poor.

How are these for POV driving videos or racket sports? Will look into it later but any insight would be appreciated.

Not necessarily. When you get discovered recording people in private settings and somebody knocks out a few of your teeth for you, you're gonna have to make sure you have separate dental coverage.

Depending on your vision insurance you might need to have prescription lenses

Main improvement is double the battery life and ultra wide 3k video. Few more styles as well

Doesnt this have 3min recording? So what you have to keep pressing record every time it stops, doesnt that get annoying if youre at a car meet/cruise or something? Any workaround for this?

You can choose from 3 mins, 1 mins, and 30 seconds. I actually use 30 seconds the most because when you stitch the videos together it just loads faster. Most highlights happen in short period of time, but yes occasionally it gets annoying when I do want longer videos, for that, I use my phone with a neck mount.

One Important thing to note is this will ONLY record vertically!!!!! It's build for shorts. For long videos I still just use my phone and neck mount.

I take a break every time camera

Thank you, kind of nerdy but how is the dynamic range? Does it overexpose the highlights when you are inside the car? Will probably pick up the shiny black transitions.

What? I can't answer your question but I think you'd be happy with the footage to be honest. Really not bad at all!

I bought from Best buy and shiny transition Large was sold out. Not sure about meta official website.

Buy now and think later!
