At their recent Meta Connect event, Meta showcased new virtual reality hardware and a line of smart glasses in various styles, notably including a version with no camera. This audio-only iteration of the Meta Ray-Ban glasses, while costing an additional $149, is noted as FSA and HSA eligible.
“First up, Meta Connect was not just Muse. There was also new hardware they had. An entire line of new glasses in many different styles.”
“They also had new VR glasses. And I think the one that we maybe found most interesting. They have glasses with no camera.”
“Yeah. Uh, the Meta Ray-Ban. The audio only version. I don't think that that is a good selling point. I mean, it is, it is a good selling point. But the thing that's really interesting is that they have these glasses that have no camera. And I think that that is a very big step forward for them.”
