Do I need a phone to use them?

Yes. You pair them with the Meta View app on a compatible phone for setup, photo transfer and settings. Meta AI and calls run through the paired phone.

Can I use them as normal sunglasses?

Yes. They have G-15 green lenses and a Wayfarer frame, so they work as sunglasses when the electronics are off.

How long does the battery last?

Up to about four hours of mixed use per charge. The included charging case adds extra charges without a wall outlet.

Can other people hear my music?

The speakers are open-ear, so sound leaks at higher volumes. People close by may hear calls or music.

Do they work with iPhone and Android?

They pair with both through the Meta View app. Some Meta AI features depend on region and account.

What comes in the box?

The glasses and a portable charging case. Check the listing for any cable or paperwork included.
