April 24, 2025 New Delhi, India — Meta Platforms has announced that its Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses, developed in collaboration with EssilorLuxottica, will soon be available in India, expanding its footprint beyond the US and Canada. Alongside the India launch, the smart glasses are also set to debut in Mexico and the UAE. The move marks Meta’s continued commitment to pushing wearable tech into global markets.
Cutting-Edge Features in a Stylish Frame
Originally launched in September 2023, the Ray-Ban Meta Glasses blend classic eyewear aesthetics with powerful smart features. Priced at $299 (approx. ₹25,000) in the US, the glasses offer a sleek design with the following capabilities:
-
12MP ultra-wide camera for photos and short videos
-
Open-ear speakers and built-in microphones for hands-free audio
-
Voice assistant integration for real-time interaction
Meta is also rolling out new styles, including:
-
Skyler Shiny Chalk Grey with Transitions Sapphire lenses
-
Skyler Shiny Black with G15 Green lenses
-
Skyler Shiny Black with Clear lenses
Real-Time Live Translation Now Global
Meta’s Live Translation feature, which was in early access in the US and Canada, is now expanding globally. The feature supports real-time translation between English and Spanish, French, or Italian. Users simply say, “Hey Meta, start live translation”, and the glasses will:
-
Play translated speech through the speakers
-
Display a transcription on a paired device
-
Work offline using downloadable language packs
Deeper Instagram and Music Integration
Meta has also enhanced Instagram functionality:
-
Send/receive DMs, photos, audio, and video calls directly through the glasses
-
Commands like “Hey Meta, send a message to Lisa on Instagram” activate messaging
In addition, Meta is expanding music streaming app support globally. Users can now control Spotify, Amazon Music, and Apple Music via voice commands and get real-time info about playing tracks.
Meta AI Now Smarter and More Intuitive
A major boost to the glasses is the updated Live AI integration. This feature enables Meta AI to access the camera feed to observe the environment and respond to contextual questions in real-time — no need to start commands with “Hey Meta.” The AI assistant can now hold more natural, flowing conversations and is being rolled out to more regions in the EU.
India Launch Timeline and Pricing
While Meta has not confirmed the exact launch date or pricing for India, the rollout is expected to happen in the coming weeks. Pricing is likely to align closely with the US base price of $299. Local availability will include offline retail partners and online channels, likely via Amazon India and Meta’s official partners.
