Starting today, live translation is rolling out to all Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses users worldwide.
Once a limited feature, it now lets users:
- Hold real-time translated conversations in English, French, Italian, or Spanish
- Download language packs to use offline, no Wi-Fi or data needed
- Hear translations directly through the glasses, no phone required
This transforms Meta’s smart glasses into on-the-go communication hubs, ideal for travelers, remote workers, and anyone navigating multilingual environments.
More Meta moves:
Meta is expanding beyond language with new hardware and AI perks:
- New Skyler frames in shiny chalky gray with sapphire lenses
- Instagram DMs and video calls coming soon
- Live AI assistant that sees what you see and responds in real time
- Global expansion of Meta AI across the EU, plus launches in Mexico, India, and the UAE

Meanwhile, in Cupertino…
Apple is developing its own lightweight AR glasses, according to a new report, a direct response to the Ray-Ban Meta’s rising popularity.
- The Apple Vision Pro may lead today’s high-end AR market
- But Apple now wants something smaller, more wearable, and packed with full AR functionality
- Meta’s smart glasses don’t do AR (yet), Apple’s may leapfrog that
The big picture:
Meta’s AI-driven push has shifted smart glasses from novelty to necessity. And with Apple entering the ring, the competition is about to heat up.
Smart glasses are no longer just about style. They’re about smarts, and both Meta and Apple want to own your face.
