Not sure if the new Meta Glasses co-designed by Kylie Jenner are for you? These 3 alternatives from Meta, XReal, and RayNeo are all on offer right now

Meta just announced some stunning new smart glasses, one pair of which has been co-designed by the Kylie Jenner. The specs, as always designed alongside Ray-Ban parent company EssilorLuxottica, will start at $299 / £269 / AU$599, offer much the same in terms of features as the second-generation Ray-Ban Metas, with improvements in some places, such as the addition of adjustable nose pieces, plus a lot of design and color choices.

They’re available already, perhaps in efforts to beat Apple’s suspected smart spec play later this year, but if you want AR experiences or the safe pair of hands the Ray-Ban frames offer design-wise, you might be better off shopping around.

Luckily, there are a few alternatives which may well be better for your needs currently on offer, some as part of the Amazon Prime Day deals, plus a few others from regional retailers like Best Buy in the US and Currys in the UK.

For me, personally, the deal-breaker is always style. A lot of smart glasses are more masculine in form, and few can hold their own against my bangs when it comes to filming, meaning a lot of my best vacation shots have been ruined by errant hair. That’s why the new wider-frame Meta Starfire Kylie Edition frames have captured my heart so much, but if you’re not bothered by that, you can score some of the best smart glasses we’ve tested for less right now. Read on for my top picks.
