Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Gen 2 vs Ray-Ban Meta Blayzer Optics (Gen 2)
Both are Gen 2 Ray-Ban Meta glasses with the same 12 MP camera, 3K video, five-mic array, 32 GB storage and roughly 8 hours of battery. The Wayfarer is the pick for most people: it is the iconic square frame, comes in polished Havana, and is sold in more lens and frame combinations. The Blayzer Optics is the one to get if you need prescription lenses: it takes a -6.00/+6.00 SPH+CYL range, comes in Standard and Large, and offers Transitions Color Touch. Owners of both praise the build and the open-ear audio; the common complaints are battery life and that the AI features need a paired phone.
- Choose the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Gen 2 if you want the classic Wayfarer look, a polished Havana frame and the widest choice of non-prescription lenses.
- Choose the Ray-Ban Meta Blayzer Optics (Gen 2) if you wear prescription glasses or want Transitions lenses and a slimmer, adjustable frame.
