The Oakley Meta glasses mark an important milestone in the evolution of smart glasses. Born from the collaboration between Oakley and Meta, they embody the sporty DNA of the Californian brand while integrating advanced connected functions directly into the frame. The goal is clear: to enable capturing, communicating, and interacting without having to take out your smartphone, all while maintaining a true sports lens, stable and high-performing.
Unlike some gadget-oriented smart glasses, the Oakley Meta are designed for active outdoor use, with coherent and deliberate technical choices.
Who are the Oakley Meta glasses for?
The Oakley Meta target a mobile and sporty audience: cyclists, runners, outdoor enthusiasts, as well as urban users who want to keep their hands free. They are aimed at those who already extensively use their smartphone for filming, listening, communicating, or navigating, and who want to do so more seamlessly.
They are not meant to replace a screen or offer intrusive augmented reality. The focus is on functionality: capturing moments, listening to audio, making calls, and accessing the voice assistant, all without losing focus on the surroundings.
Connected functions integrated into the Oakley Meta
The Oakley Meta feature an ultra-wide-angle 12 MP camera capable of recording in 3K video, a quality level significantly higher than early generations of smart glasses. Recording can be triggered discreetly via a button on the temple or by voice, allowing for filming on the go without complex handling.
The open-ear speakers deliver sound without isolating the user from their environment, a crucial point for sports and urban use. The integrated microphones ensure clear voice capture for calls and voice commands.
The Bluetooth connection allows:
-
call management,
-
listening to music or podcasts,
-
using Meta AI, Meta's voice assistant, to ask questions, start a recording, or get contextual information.
Battery life and charging: a real strength
The Oakley Meta offer up to 8 hours of mixed-use battery life, a consistent figure for an active day. The provided charging case allows for up to 48 hours of cumulative battery life, greatly reducing the need for recharging on the go.
The case charges via USB-C in about 3.5 hours, a convenient standard compatible with most current chargers.
Oakley design and stability in motion
The technical foundation is based on an Oakley frame from the HSTN range, known for its fit and stability. The weight is evenly distributed to avoid pressure points, even during extended wear.
The Oakley Meta are IPX4 certified, making them resistant to sweat and splashes. They are therefore suitable for real sports use, where many connected models are limited to sedentary use.
Prizm Lenses: optimized readability and contrast
The Oakley Meta are equipped with Prizm lenses, a proven technology at Oakley. It enhances contrasts and the perception of useful details according to the environment, whether in urban or outdoor settings.
This visual optimization is particularly relevant for connected use: it improves environmental awareness while maintaining constant visual comfort, even when brightness changes rapidly.
