Oakley Vanguard Smart AI Glasses White, Prizm Black | Camera, audio & Meta AI built in. Oakley case & cleaning cloth included.

I will admit: I have not been a fan of Oakley sunglasses in the past - the styles have been a bit "too out there" for my tastes. I ordered a pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarer Meta sunglasses and was impressed with the tech built into them. That led me to checking out these Oakley Meta Vanguard glasses. While I am coming to terms with the styling, I really appreciate the fit and comfort of these glasses. And then the tech: a 3k video camera that is centered (as opposed to the camera on the far left of the Ray-Bans). The 122º field of view works well for action shots. 12 meg still photos. Great audio. Easy to set up. Make and receive phone calls. Listen to music or podcasts. The battery life depends on your usage: if you shoot a lot of videos, it may only be a couple hours; if you listen to some music or make an occasional phone call, you might actually see that advertised 8 to 9 hours. I wish the camera would offer horizontal format, but I have cropped from the vertical format when necessary. The case is huge - I hope someone comes up with a cable to charge direct to the nose piece instead of having to use the case as the only way to charge. The price seems high until you figure that these are quality sunglasses AND an action camera AND great audio built-in when you want to take a call or listen to music. They are made to be used - I haven't had any issues with them slipping or moving around. The Meta AI is mostly meh for me, and I have it set to not give Meta my photos/video/messages/audio... which also helps with battery life.

I was skeptical going in because smart glasses usually feel gimmicky. The Oakley Meta Vanguard changed my mind pretty quickly. These feel like real Oakleys first, with smart features layered in naturally. Comfort and Design The fit is comfortable and secure, even during extended wear. They look like premium sunglasses, not tech on your face. The Prizm Black lenses are excellent, providing clear contrast and eye comfort in bright conditions. Audio Experience The open-ear audio is surprisingly good. It’s clear enough for calls, music, and prompts without blocking surrounding sounds. Volume is solid, and conversations come through clean without needing earbuds. Photo and Video Capture This is where they shine. Being able to capture photos and short videos hands-free is incredibly convenient. The quality is better than expected for quick moments, especially when you want to capture something without pulling out your phone. Meta AI Integration The Meta AI features feel useful, not intrusive. Voice commands are responsive, and it’s easy to ask questions or trigger actions without touching anything. It feels natural once you get used to it. Everyday Use I’ve used these while walking, traveling, and during casual outings. They are especially useful when your hands are full or when pulling out a phone would break the moment. Pros Premium Oakley build and comfort Excellent Prizm Black lenses Convenient hands-free photo and video capture Clear open-ear audio Useful voice and AI features Cons Not meant to replace high-end cameras Audio is best in quieter environments Requires charging like any smart device Final Verdict The Oakley Meta Vanguard feels like a mature, well-executed smart glasses product, not a novelty. If you want hands-free photos, audio, and AI features built into sunglasses you would actually wear, these are a strong option. I’m glad I picked them up and use them regularly. Five stars.

Highly recommend them! I use them for running and they’re super comfortable. Also love the speakers! They have good volume

The Oakley Meta Vanguard glasses are sleek, stylish, and packed with useful features. The white frame and Prizm Black lenses give them a sharp, modern look, while the built-in Meta AI, audio, photo, and video features make them both fun and practical. They’re high-quality and comfortable to wear, and the technology adds a convenient hands-free experience for capturing moments and staying connected. Overall, these glasses are a great mix of fashion, function, and innovation.

Learning curve, but nice product. recommended

Got these to replace my Instant Go 3 on my hat for USPSA competitions, wearing a headphone for listening to music and obviously for the new ai features. I look forward for 4 things. Good video camera, talk to ai, listen to music and the convenience. But, I found that out of the 4 things, the one thing I look forward the most is a good video camera and it is not up to par. Here are the cons: 1. Video camera is not up to par vs Go 3, it jitters for no reason during recording like someone punches you in the face. There are no way to turn off stabilization and it jumps all over the place. 2. The recoding sounds are horrible, it keeps going in and out on loud sounds and there are no way to turn them off 3. Not enough video camera settings, no landscape only portrait, no setting to turn off stabilization 4. Cannot listen to music while recording 5. Definitely heavier than regular Oakley M-Frames, that is to be expected 6. The case should have a tracker build in, if you lose it, you don't even know it I used it heavily for the last 2 weeks since it released and I have tried every possible way to fix these issues. Amazon won't let me post my uspsa video, so you can either take my word for it or check out my ig at hyasuma_pew The Pros: 1) Easy to set up 2) Upload directly to your phone gallery 3) Sound is amazing for both music and phone calls 4) Makes recording/image and sharing things a breeze 5) Talking to Meta AI is pretty cool Overall, I like the product and wanted to give a 5 star but with the video jitter issue, I can't justify all the pro outweighing this specific issue. I am planning on giving a bit more time to see if the jitter can be fixed, if not, I might end up returning it and look for alternatives like Bleeq.

Purchased for my son as a birthday gift. He loves them. Audio and video are super clear.

These glasses are very tight on my big head. They have some nice functionality that will improve in later iterations of the software. Can't wait to see what is coming down the road.

Excelente tecnología, muy buen resolución de imágenes y vídeo. Envió rapido y paquete sin daños. Aplicación meta fácil de usar y exportar. Muy recomendados!

Incroyable ces lunettes ! Vive le future 😉

Delivery to NZ was super fast. Very happy with the product. It’s easy to set up and to use.

Great idea and concept, but battery life isn’t great and arms are pretty weak too. I used these on a 9hrs gravel race and they really didn’t meet the expectations I was hoping for.

excellent amazing quality looks and feels great very happy
