A brand new era is beginning that will change the balances in the wearable technologies and mixed reality market. Introduced at the special launch held in London and scoring a goal in the industry compared to its competitors, Meta's new generation smart glasses close the era of bulky headgear and manage to fit technology into a daily sunglasses form.

Meta, which separates the battery and hardware parts that require intensive processing power from the glasses body and transfers them to an external compact unit, offers 5K resolution Micro-OLED screens, advanced sensors and touch surfaces on the glasses side. In addition, thanks to the agreements made with giant content platforms such as YouTube, Disney + and Prime and the IMAX Enhanced certificate, the cinematic experience is brought directly to your eyes.
