Now, Meta is catering to a more athletic audience with its new Meta Oakley smart glasses &#8212; and with them, it has upped the ante across nearly every spec.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As a glasses wearer, photo fanatic, and AI reporter, it was an absolute no-brainer for me to purchase the Meta Ray-Bans. After <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/ive-worn-the-meta-ray-bans-for-half-a-year-and-these-5-features-still-amaze-me\/\">months of trying them<\/a>, I was mostly impressed.

However, this means that the glasses have to be comfortable, durable, and have a battery that lasts the duration of your activity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/your-meta-ray-bans-just-got-a-major-feature-upgrade-for-free-and-it-feels-surreal\/\">Your Meta Ray-Bans just got a major feature upgrade for free &#8211; and it feels surreal<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Meta executed on all of these fronts with Meta Oakley HSTN Limited Edition glasses, packing an eight-hour battery life from a single charge (up from four on the Meta Ray-Bans) and up to 48 hours with the fully charged carrying case, according to Meta.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To accommodate outdoor activities in all terrains, the glasses have an IPX4 water resistance rating, a step-up in durability from the Ray-Bans. The video quality is also higher, capturing 3K video, up from 1080p on the Meta Ray-Bans.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!----><\/p>\n<p>But these glasses also keep all of the features that made the Meta Ray-Bans so great, such as a 12 MP ultrawide camera, camera sensors embedded along the side of the eyewear (great for recording POV shots during your activity), two open-ear Bluetooth speakers, and a custom five-mic array.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>During my walk, I listened to Justin Bieber&#8217;s new album and was extremely satisfied with the audio, so much so that I was content with my decision to forgo my usual&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/best-bone-conduction-headphones\/#link={%22role%22:%22standard%22,%22href%22:%22https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/best-bone-conduction-headphones\/%22,%22target%22:%22%22,%22absolute%22:%22%22,%22linkText%22:%22open-ear headphones%22}\">open-ear headphones,<\/a>&nbsp;the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/my-favorite-open-ear-headphones-are-on-sale-for-spring\/\">Shockz OpenFit<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"c-shortcodeImage u-clearfix c-shortcodeImage-large\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeImage_imageContainer\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeImage_image\"><picture class=\"c-cmsImage\"><!----> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/i-spent-a-weekend-with-metas-new-oakley-smart-glasses-they-beat-my-ray-bans-in-every-way\/\" alt=\"Oakley Meta\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" fetchpriority=\"low\"><\/picture><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div><figcaption> <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_credit g-outer-spacing-top-xsmall u-block\">Sabrina Ortiz\/ZDNET<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I was also able to send audio messages, which is my preferred mode of communication, with no issue. I even got the feedback, &#8220;your audio sounds great, actually,&#8221; when I apologized in advance for any splotchiness that may ensue from talking into my glasses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I also tested the photo and video capabilities by snapping shots during my walk. I have always been amazed at how well it takes photos, even when you are in motion, with the final result being stable, good-quality shots. The most impressive part, however, was the improved video quality, which was evident as soon as I viewed the video after getting home. You can distinctly hear the sound of my feet hitting the pavement as I did my light jog, and the quality and POV make it feel like you were taken along the path of my jog.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"c-shortcodeTwitterTweet\"><\/figure>\n<p>This functionality is particularly important because if you are in the market for these glasses to document your exercise, at the price point, which is double that of a traditional GoPro, it is imperative that the quality of the shots be as high as possible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Increased comfort<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"c-shortcodeImage u-clearfix c-shortcodeImage-large\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeImage_imageContainer\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeImage_image\"><picture class=\"c-cmsImage\"><!----> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/i-spent-a-weekend-with-metas-new-oakley-smart-glasses-they-beat-my-ray-bans-in-every-way\/\" alt=\"Oakley Meta\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720.1063627730296\" fetchpriority=\"low\"><\/picture><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div><figcaption> <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_credit g-outer-spacing-top-xsmall u-block\">Sabrina Ortiz\/ZDNET<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Despite the more rugged design and the better components under the hood, I found the glasses to be more comfortable than the Meta Ray-Bans. According to the specs posted on the Meta website, both glasses are the same exact weight at 49 grams. However, the Oakley pair sits so much more comfortably on the bridge of my nose that they practically feel lighter.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/hallidays-new-ai-glasses-are-what-meta-google-and-apple-have-been-trying-to-build\/\">Halliday&#8217;s new AI glasses are what Meta, Google, and Apple have been trying to build<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Using the smartglasses hands-free is just as easy with either voice or touchpad commands, depending on which you prefer. Before my outing, I synced the glasses to Apple Music and my messages, so I didn&#8217;t have to look at my phone at all. Rather, I got a voice notification every time I received a text, and did simple motions on the touchpad, such as swiping forward to control volume or tapping to pause a song. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Using Meta AI was just as simple, with a simple command of &#8220;Hey Meta&#8221; unlocking a multimodal AI assistant that can see what you see, provide audio assistance, and even perform other more advanced tasks such as AI language translation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"c-shortcodeImage u-clearfix c-shortcodeImage-large\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeImage_imageContainer\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeImage_image\"><picture class=\"c-cmsImage\"><!----> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/i-spent-a-weekend-with-metas-new-oakley-smart-glasses-they-beat-my-ray-bans-in-every-way\/\" alt=\"Oakley vs Ray-Ban Meta\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" fetchpriority=\"low\"><\/picture><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div><figcaption> <span class=\"c-shortcodeImage_credit g-outer-spacing-top-xsmall u-block\">Sabrina Ortiz\/ZDNET<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Oakley pair&#8217;s case is a bit bulkier and less sleek than that of the Ray-Bans. That said, it was likely a purposeful design, as you probably want something more heavy-duty when on a run, bike ride, hike, etc. The Meta Oakley charging case holds 48 hours of charge versus the 32 hours on the Ray-Bans.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/apples-meta-ray-bans-killer-is-only-one-of-four-major-launches-in-2027-heres-the-list\/\">Apple&#8217;s Meta Ray-Bans killer is only one of four major launches in 2027 &#8211; here&#8217;s the list<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is also the added convenience of having high-quality sunglasses catered to athletes.
