What Makes the Oakley-Meta Vanguard Different?
The Oakley-Meta Vanguard AI glasses go beyond standard smart eyewear. Powered by Meta AI, the device responds to voice commands, answers questions, and helps users navigate daily tasks hands-free.
It packs a 12MP ultra-wide camera with a 122° field of view, capable of recording 3K resolution videos, slow motion, and hyperlapse—from your line of sight. The camera is paired with five microphones and six-decibel louder open-ear speakers, producing clearer audio and lifelike sound quality.
Performance Meets AI: Designed for Athletes
Oakley, known for high-performance sports eyewear, designed these AI glasses for athletes and fitness enthusiasts. They come with three replaceable nose pads, making them compatible with helmets and hats—ideal for cyclists, runners, and adventure athletes.
Battery life extends up to nine hours of use, or six hours of continuous audio, with the charging case adding 36 hours more. A quick 20-minute charge gets users back to 50% power, ensuring minimal downtime during training or travel.
What Else Can They Do?
In India, the Oakley-Meta Vanguard integrates UPI Lite payments, enabling quick transactions through voice. Through the Meta AI app, users can choose between English and Hindi, and even interact using Bollywood actor Deepika Padukone’s celebrity AI voice, continuing Meta’s India-specific localization strategy.
Where to Get Them
The Oakley-Meta Vanguard AI glasses are available at Sunglass Hut, LensCrafters, and leading optical stores across India. The collection offers four frame and lens color combinations, merging high fashion with athletic design.
