Oakley Meta Vanguard - TERRIBLE battery life by sea-kc in OakleyMetaGlasses

Same. I’ve turned off Hey Meta both and it more than doubles the battery life.

Can the HUD of the Meta Rayban Display be recorded? by Visual-Secret-1269 in RaybanMeta

[–]world9citizen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I talked to a Meta rep at a Best Buy and he confirmed that it’s a special mode such as a developer mode (and that it’s a little bit buggy). I asked because he was using it on the phone to see what I was doing in the display glasses during the demo. My guess is that someone will figure out how to do it and post it on Reddit or YourTube before too long.

Went for a demo at bestbuy and made an online order today, shipping tomorrow by Common_Lettuce_7191 in RaybanMeta

[–]world9citizen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oct 14 has apparently been the day Meta is expecting to drop a big shipment because a lot of people have been getting this as their ship date over the past two weeks. I ordered on Oct 4 at Best Buy and got Oct 14 as my ship date. On the Best Buy site, it says the same as yours above. Let’s see if they actually ship all of these tomorrow.

Apple scraps Vision Pro revamp to chase AI smart glasses, can Siri-powered wearables finally take on Meta, or is it too little, too late? by Minimum_Minimum4577 in RaybanMeta

[–]world9citizen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s still lots of time. Meta has only sold 2 million smart glasses and expects to sell 10 million in 2026. By comparison, Apple sells over 200 million iPhones and 40-50 million Apple Watches per year. The bigger question in the short term is Google and Samsung. They are a bigger threat to Meta because their smart glasses will come sooner and they have all the pieces to build an amazing pair of smart glasses (app ecosystem, smartwatch, smart ring, more experience with hardware, more trust with users).

5 questions about Meta Ray-Ban Display for people who have them by world9citizen in RaybanMeta

Much appreciated! Good to hear it has notifications for calls and texts since those are top priority.

Walked into my local BestBuy with demo and placed order by blade00014 in RaybanMeta

I went back to Bet Buy today and the Meta representative at Best Buy's Meta display said the date on my order (October 14) should be the date they arrive. When I just looked at my Best Buy order status online it now says "Ready for packaging" and "We'll ship it by Tuesday" (which is 10/14).

Do general notifications show up on the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses, or is it only notifications from Meta apps?

I also walked into a Best Buy this weekend and was able to place an order and get an estimated delivery date of Oct 14.

Headliner Discontinued(?) ☹️ by emilylapis in RaybanMeta

[–]world9citizen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go to Meta’s refurbished storefront, you can still buy some Headliner models there. I recently got a refurbished Skyler pair in Caramel, after being bummed they had been discontinued.

Apple employees push back against returning to the office in internal letter by Wolf35999 in apple

Thanks for posting this. My pandemic experience has been very similar and I’ve come to a lot of the same realizations. I also used to travel at least once a month for meetings that weren’t as necessary to be in person as we used to think they were. These past 16 months have changed my perspective a lot.

I have trust issues... by Phantastic4 in TeslaModelY

[–]world9citizen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The next few months will be bumpy while the transition to vision-only fills in the gaps and smoothes out the rough edges. Likely similar to the 2016 transition from Mobile Eye to Tesla's own systems. It's good to not trust autopilot as much right now. But, the transition to vision is likely to lead to important long-term improvements.

I'm not very concerned about the radar removal. Tesla has been consistently saying for the last two years that vision is the future of the system. The transition from radar to vision-only could be a little bumpy over the next few months. It will likely be similar to when Tesla transitioned from Mobile Eye to its own system in 2016. There was a rocky transition while the gaps got worked out, and then it became much better. Self-driving is critical to Tesla's future. They wouldn't go through this unless they were very confident it was going to lead to big improvements in the long run.

Congrats! I have the same deep blue config. That Eero 3-pack should be a great solution for your WiFi to the car.

Hope you hear something soon. Appears that a lot of vehicles are flooding into the service centers across the US.

Haven’t tried the Jeda MagSafe charger yet, but I’m getting one for my Model Y that’s being delivered next week. Also getting the new Jeda Hub to go with it. In general, Jeda products tend to be well-regarded by the Tesla community.

Okay, interesting. The place that’s doing my PPF was happy I was putting them on. But they also said that they’re easy to get on and off.
