Oakley Meta HSTN

The Oakley Meta HSTN are the sportier Meta AI glasses: IPX4 water resistance, a 3K camera and roughly double the battery of the first-generation Ray-Ban Meta. They aim at active users who want hands-free capture and voice AI without a phone in hand. The one thing to know is that the privacy and battery caveats of camera glasses apply here as much as to the Ray-Bans.

What do the Oakley Meta HSTN do that the Ray-Bans do not?

• Priced at $399, with the Vanguard model at $499, per the listing's pricing line.
• IPX4 sweat and splash resistance and a sportier frame.
• 3K video capture and open-ear audio for calls and voice assistant queries.
• Prizm and Transitions lens variants are separate listings at higher prices.

They overlap heavily with the Ray-Ban Meta line; choose on frame style and durability. Browse wearables and AI.

Who should skip it

Anyone whose workplace or clients object to a camera on your face. Anyone wanting a discreet office look should choose the Ray-Ban frames instead.
