Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) overview
The Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) is a 12 MP pair of camera glasses with a built-in lens, announced by Meta in September 2025.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits hands-free point-of-view video and all-day wear. It is a weaker pick for zoom, low light or interchangeable lenses and swimming or heavy rain.
New, it sells for $379 in the United States (Abt); used and refurbished copies start at $139.93. It launched at $379.
Worth comparing it with the Meta Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 1), Meta Oakley Meta HSTN and Meta Oakley Meta Vanguard.
