Kylie Jenner Meta smart glasses revealed: New AI features, 40 hours of battery, and a stylish oval design

Meta has unveiled three new Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered smart glasses, headlined by its first-ever collaboration with Kylie Jenner. The collection is meant to keep you connected with Meta AI, capture crisp photos and videos, and deliver hands-free convenience with up to 40 hours of battery life.You'll find three distinct frame styles to choose from — Meta Adventurer, Meta Fury, and Meta Glasses by Kylie. The US tech firm has also teamed up with EssilorLuxottica – the company behind Ray-Ban and Oakley – to create this new range with prices starting from £269.Meta said in a statement: Glasses are the most exciting hardware category of the AI era — the ideal device to experience an all-day AI assistant that understands the world from your perspective. That’s why today, in partnership with EssilorLuxottica, we’re introducing Meta Glasses. Not familiar with smart glasses? Think of them as AI-powered eyewear that blends style with functionality. Models from rival firms, like Meta, let you capture photos and videos completely hands-free, listen to music, take phone calls, and access information on the go with the hands-free AI assistant.Here's everything you need to know about these smart specs. Meta's partnership with EssilorLuxottica builds on the success of prior models. They've worked with the French-Italian brand since 2019 to build two generations of Ray-Ban-branded smart glasses.They're also much cheaper than its other newer releases. For example, the new Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses were first released in the US at 799 (roughly £604) and are expected to be released in the UK soon. This new collection appears to focus on crafting frames with an emphasis on style. With a total of eight frame colours and four lens options, you're looking at 26 unique combinations in the new range.For instance, Kylie Jenner has collaborated on a special-edition design featuring a slim oval frame inspired by her personal style. It's worth noting that Snap — parent company of social platform Snapchat — recently announced AR glasses with Kaia Gerber as a spokesperson, so this could be a strategic move among other brands.On the other hand, the Meta Adventurer sports a clean rectangular shape that may be ideal for everyday wear. If you prefer a bolder style, the Meta Fury delivers a square silhouette that makes more of a statement.Buy Kylie Jenner's Meta AI glasses for under £360Designed in collaboration with Kylie Jenner, these AI smart glasses feature a sleek oval frame.

It works with the existing Meta AI, which is an integrated chatbot assistant that lets you ask questions, generate ideas, get recommendations, summarise information, and more. For example, you can get information from World Cup football scores to restaurant recommendations nearby. The AI can also see what you're looking at, such as a famous landmark, and help give you more context. To activate this, there's a dedicated action button you press to summon Meta AI, then ask your questions. Its multi-microphone setup across all the new glasses is meant to pick up your voice clearly, even when it's windy outside. This could make it ideal if you want to take calls hands-free. The AI's responses come through open-ear speakers built into the frames, so you can hear everything without blocking out the world around you.LATEST DEVELOPMENTSNew XBOX controller and console to release soonBest VPN dealsTimely Fire TV Stick update offers easy way to watch World Cup for FREERoku sold in £16.4bn deal, what does this mean for YOU?Google's £3 upgrade to restore missing Windows 10 security patchesBattery life clocks in at over eight hours, which means you could wear these from breakfast through to dinner without hunting for a charger.
