For tech enthusiasts and fashion-forward folks in India, the wait is finally over. Meta has officially announced that its cutting-edge wearable tech, the Oakley Meta Glasses, will be hitting Indian shelves starting next month.

Launched globally in June through a power-packed collaboration between the tech giant Meta and sports performance leader Oakley, these smart glasses are the perfect fusion of style and silicon. They wrap Meta‘s advanced AI technology stack inside the iconic HSTN frame design by Oakley, promising a gadget that looks as good as it performs.

If you loved the Ray-Ban Meta Glasses, you are in for a treat. This new iteration takes things a notch higher with support for the Meta AI voice assistant and stunning video capabilities.

Price Tag and How to Get Your Hands on Them

The Oakley Meta HSTN Glasses are positioned as a premium offering in India, with pricing starting at Rs. 41,800.

For those who hate waiting, pre-orders are officially open starting today. You can book your pair at Sunglass Hut and other leading optical retail chains across the country. According to Meta, the glasses will officially go on sale on December 1.

Style Your Way: Indian customers will have a plethora of lens options to choose from, including Prizm, Prizm Polarised, Clear, and Transition lenses.

Globally, the style combinations have been a hit, and here is what the lineup looks like:

• Oakley Meta HSTN Warm Grey with PRIZM Ruby Lenses

• Oakley Meta HSTN Brown Smoke with PRIZM Polar Deep Water Lenses

Under the Hood: Cameras and Connectivity

Meta isn’t shy about calling these “performance AI glasses,” specifically targeting athletes and adventurers.

The Visual Upgrade: The glasses sport a robust 12-megapixel camera capable of recording video in up to 3K resolution. This is a significant jump from the 1080p resolution found in the first-generation Ray-Ban Meta Glasses. Whether you are cycling down a mountain or just tahttps://english.techneandlogos.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/101.jpg a walk, the footage promises to be crisp.

POV Capture: The camera and an LED light (which acts as a recording indicator for privacy) are neatly tucked on either side of the frame. A dedicated capture button allows for effortless Point-of-View (PoV) recording. Plus, for the social media savvy, you can livestream directly to apps like Instagram from your first-person perspective.

Audio Excellence: To ensure your videos sound as good as they look, the glasses feature a penta-microphone array (a setup of 5 mics) to capture immersive audio.

Smart Features: “Hey Meta”

These aren’t just for recording; they are a true smart assistant on your face. Just like their Ray-Ban cousins, the Oakley Meta Glasses allow you to take calls and send messages without ever touching your phone.

• Hands-Free Control: Simply say “Hey Meta” to wake up the assistant. You can ask for real-time weather updates, plan your weekend leisure activities, or even get quick culinary advice.
• Music on the Go: The glasses integrate seamlessly with Apple Music, Spotify, and other streaming apps, mahttps://english.techneandlogos.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/101.jpg them a great companion for your morning runs.
