Ray-Ban Meta, the world’s top-selling AI glasses, is rolling out its sleekest prescription-ready frames yet. The new Ray-Ban Meta Blayzer Optics (Gen 2) and Scriber Optics (Gen 2) will hit Singapore stores on 6 May 2026, designed to bring comfort, style, and smart AI features to everyday wearers.
The updated frames are slimmer, lighter, and tailored for all-day use, with interchangeable nose pads, overextension hinges offering 10° more flexibility, and adjustable temple tips for a personalised fit. Both models support a wide prescription range and deliver 8–10 hours of battery life, keeping pace from morning to night. A new action button puts Meta AI at your fingertips, letting wearers capture photos and videos, stream music, place calls, send messages, and even translate conversations in real time.
The Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) smart glasses, first launched in the US in late 2025, are now available in Singapore in three signature designs: Wayfarer, Skyler, and Headliner. The lineup gets a fresh twist with three limited-edition seasonal colors, paired with Transitions lenses. The new options include Wayfarer in Shiny Transparent Grey with Sapphire lenses, Skyler in Shiny Transparent Peach with Brown lenses, and Headliner in Matte Transparent Peach with Sapphire lenses.
Across the Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) lineup, expect 8 hours of battery life, rapid charging to 50% in just 20 minutes, a 12MP ultra-wide camera capable of 3K Ultra HD photos and videos, and immersive audio enhancements for crystal-clear listening. The lineup also introduces a wider palette of colors and lenses, including sun, clear, polarised, and Transitions Gen S options for seamless day-to-night wear.
Meta AI also continues to evolve with expanded Live Translation (French, Italian, Portuguese, German, Spanish, with Mandarin, Japanese, Korean, and Arabic on the way), hands-free food logging and nutrition tracking, and message summarisation to keep users effortlessly connected.
“We are excited to expand the AI glasses category into Southeast Asia, starting with Singapore. As one of the world’s most AI-advanced economies with a thriving tech ecosystem, Singapore is well-positioned to adopt innovative technologies that can enhance daily living. Together with Meta, we are inviting people to experience how they can connect with the world and others more seamlessly and effortlessly, from capturing photos and video hands-free to measuring sports performance in real-time. This launch will offer a wide range of AI glasses in sun and optical to fit different lifestyles and needs, we encourage everyone to try on a pair and feel the difference,” said Denis Chng, Country Manager, Malaysia and Singapore at EssilorLuxottica.
Oakley Meta also joins the lineup with bold HSTN and Vanguard styles built for movement, endurance, and real-time performance data.
The Oakley Meta HSTN pairs striking aesthetics with hands-free 3K Ultra HD capture, open-ear speakers, and IPX4 water resistance. Select models feature Oakley’s PRIZM lens technology, enhancing vision and contrast across changing light and weather conditions.
Meanwhile, the Oakley Meta Vanguard introduces “Athletic Intelligence” with PRIZM lenses, a 12MP ultra-wide camera, high-decibel open-ear speakers, and advanced wind noise reduction optimized for running, cycling, and outdoor training. Built for endurance, it offers IP67 water and dust resistance and compatibility with helmets and hats, making it ready for sun, snow, and tough terrain.
“Every generation, computing gets closer to us, from mainframes to desktops to smartphones. Now, AI meets you at eye level. We are building personal superintelligence for everyone, and glasses are the ideal way to experience it because they understand your context in real-time. We are excited for Singapore to be the first in Southeast Asia to experience this new chapter,” said Nicole Tan, Managing Director, Meta Singapore.
