When Meta revealed the Project Orion AR glasses during Meta Connect in September, it hinted at an impressive future for smart glasses, even if Orion is still a prototype. We may get a teaser of what the future looks like next year as a report from The Wall Street Journal suggests that a new set of Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses will feature a "single small in-lens screen.

An end-of-year surprise to one of 2024's most interesting gadgets hints at where smart glasses are heading between here and Orion. Meta's Andrew Bosworth shares his thoughts with CNET on what's next.

In 2025, we expect a new set of Ray-Ban Meta AR glasses. According to a rumor, these could include, for the first time, a display.

Tech giant Meta is planning to include innovative displays in its much anticipated Ray-Bay smart glasses product. The news was first reported by the Financial Times recently which shed more light on the matter thanks to sources familiar with the product.

Next year's version of the Ray-Ban Meta glasses are bound to be an upgrade, and a display could be the highlight.

The upcoming Ray-Ban smart glasses will reportedly feature similar 'in-lens' displays as Meta's Orion prototype for augmented reality experiences.

Market research indicates that consumer demand for smart glasses has grown by 150% year-over-year, with particular interest in features that blend style with functionality. Meta’s partnership with Ray-Ban has been crucial in addressing the fashion concerns that previously limited widespread adoption of smart eyewear.
