The article discusses the enthusiastic reception of Meta Ray-Bans smartglasses, highlighting their success with two million pairs sold since launch. The author, a tech reporter and eyeglass wearer, shares personal experiences with the glasses after five months of use. Initially drawn in by the prospect of dual cameras, the standout feature for the author turned out to be the audio capabilities. With five microphones and custom-built speakers, the glasses provide excellent sound quality, making communication seamless and enjoyable.
When considering whether I wanted the glasses, all the apparent benefits involved the dual cameras. I never expected my favorite feature to be the audio.
The smartglasses are equipped with five microphones and two custom-built open-ear speakers that are surprisingly performant.
I often forget that I am wearing smart glasses until I start scrolling on social media and hear audio.
My biggest form of communication is audio message exchanges, and I was nervous that the glasses would make it inconvenient or difficult to send them.
