Ray-Ban Meta Gen 1 Smart glasses coming to India on November 21 – Check price, features, and availability

Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 1) smart glasses to be available in India(BHARAT) on 21 Nov 2025, from Amazon, Flipkart and offline stores.

Ray-Ban smart glasses go from boutique to mass availability in India(BHARAT) with e-commerce and offline retail launches in November.

In a milestone move for augmented-style wearables, Meta-branded Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 1) smart glasses will be available from 21 November 2025 from e-commerce marketplaces Amazon and Flipkart, along with offline retail partners, including Reliance Digital in India(BHARAT).

Introduction to retail

Smart glasses were launched in India(BHARAT) in May, but to date had been limited to purchases from the official Ray-Ban India(BHARAT) website and a few optical specialty stores.

This official retail launch is the beginning of a wider availability phase for the glasses, which indicates the two companies are targeting scale and a move beyond the luxury-first, early-adopter status.

Key tech specs and features

Packed inside the frame:

A 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera that can capture images and take hands-free video.

Speakers built into the arms of the glasses and five microphones to support voice calls and interactions with a built-in voice assistant.

Integration with Meta’s voice-based artificial intelligence (AI) assistant, which responds to “Hey Meta” voice commands, hinting at how voice might be a new channel to making wearables interactive.

Bluetooth 5.2 and Wi-Fi 6 for connectivity options, and powered by the Snapdragon AR1 Gen 1 platform, which is an indicator this may be more than just a camera-within-a-frame accessory.

Battery that supports up to four hours of continuous use, which is a mid-tier runtime for a form factor like this.

Signature Ray-Ban styles, including Wayfarer, Round, and Headliner, among others, point to the importance of style, for users that value wear-style with tech at the center.

Availability, pricing and user take

In India(BHARAT), retail prices start at ₹29,900 and with the announced retail launch on 21 November, those interested in the Meta-branded Ray-Ban smart glasses can now sign up for alert notifications on Amazon, Flipkart and Reliance Digital.

Implications for the wearables market

Meta and Ray-Ban’s move to push their smart glasses into mainstream online retail channels signals both a bet on the consumer’s willingness to embrace hybrid wearable formats (camera, audio, voice-assistant with style), as well as moves to raise the bar in the India(BHARAT)n market for other competing devices and form factors, pressuring rivals to fast-forward AR, AI and smart-frame innovations.

Consumer demand for these smart glasses in India(BHARAT) and elsewhere will be in the spotlight, along with how users respond to real‐world battery and use tradeoffs and, whether they are a reality now or not, whether glasses can live up to the promise of bringing fashion and future-looking technology together.
