Sometimes simpler is better when it comes to gadgets.

Meta's second-generation smart glasses will reportedly let you stream live video to viewers who can comment on it. Experts say the Ray-Bans could be a good alternative for users intimidated by the many features and high price tag of Apple's upcoming Vision Pro headset.

“Think of Ray-Bans as your everyday glasses, but more innovative, and VR headsets as diving into a digital world,” Vladimir Fomeko, CEO of the technology company Infatica, told Lifewire in an email interview. “Ray-Bans amplify your everyday life and make it a little more digital. VR headsets, on the other hand, are more about fully entering a virtual space.”

Tech reporter Janko Roettgers claims he's read internal documents that show the next-generation Ray-Ban Stories will feature the ability to stream live video to Facebook and Instagram and a feature that allows viewers to interact with you audibly.
