A Step Up from Ray-Ban Meta Glasses
Earlier models like the Ray-Ban Meta offered solid performance but fell short in battery life—especially in cold weather. The Oakley Meta HSTN solves this with enhanced battery endurance and better video resolution. Athletes and adventurers can now count on their tech to keep up with their lifestyle.
Pre-Orders & Price Tag
The Oakley Meta HSTN Limited Edition will be available for pre-order starting July 11, priced at $499. A wider range of models will follow this summer, with entry-level pricing beginning at $399.
Capture the Moment, Effortlessly
Thanks to the integrated 12MP camera and Capture Button, users can take photos and record up to 3-minute videos — all hands-free. Sync everything with your smartphone through the Meta AI app, and instantly share moments to Instagram Live, Facebook, and more.
Immersive Audio Experience On The Go
With built-in Bluetooth speakers nestled into the frame, enjoy your favorite music, playlists, or podcasts on platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, or Amazon Music. Whether you’re in warm-up mode or hitting peak performance, the open-ear audio design ensures you stay aware of your surroundings.
Stay Connected, Wherever You Are
With built-in communication features, users can:
- Send and receive texts via WhatsApp, Messenger, and more
- Take voice calls directly through the glasses
- Make video calls using the onboard camera and share your live POV
No need to reach for your phone — it’s all accessible with just your voice or a simple tap.
Ask Anything, Anytime: Meta AI at Your Service
Wondering about weather conditions, nearby locations, or needing a motivational playlist? Just say “Hey Meta” and get real-time answers from the built-in Meta AI assistant. Athletes now have a smarter way to train, plan, and perform.
Top-Notch Accessibility for All Users
The Oakley Meta HSTN includes features designed for users with limited vision, hearing, or mobility. With full voice control, users can:
- Make calls
- Send messages
- Take photos or videos
- Ask for visual assistance via the Be My Eyes network
Meta AI can even provide audio descriptions of your surroundings to aid those with low vision.
The Meta AI App: Your Control Center

Capture With Courtesy
The Capture LED light signals when you’re recording or live-streaming. If the light is covered or blocked, the glasses won’t allow recording—ensuring privacy and awareness for everyone around you.
Built for Sport. Perfect for Life.
