Our take on the Ray-Ban Meta Headliner Gen 2 RW4013 Transitions Sunglasses

The Ray-Ban Meta Headliner Gen 2 is a smart sunglasses frame with built-in open-ear speakers, a microphone and Bluetooth, paired with Transitions lenses that darken outdoors and clear indoors. It is the second generation of Meta's camera-free smart glasses, aimed at people who want audio and calls without earbuds while keeping a classic oval-round acetate look. Against camera-equipped Ray-Ban Meta models it drops the camera and its privacy baggage, and against plain sunglasses it adds calls, music and voice assistant access at the cost of battery life and a heavier frame. Reviewers like the sound and the look but often find the fit, battery and app experience uneven.

Questions and answers

Do these have a camera?
No. The Headliner Gen 2 is the camera-free Meta model, so it offers audio, calls and voice assistant access but no photo or video capture.
How long does the battery last?
Expect several hours of mixed listening and calls, less with constant use. The case tops it up between wears.
Can I use them as normal sunglasses?
Yes. The Transitions lenses darken in sunlight and clear indoors, and the glasses work as regular eyewear when audio is off.
Do they work with iPhone and Android?
Yes. They pair over Bluetooth with the Meta companion app on both iOS and Android.
How do they compare with the camera-equipped Ray-Ban Meta?
They share the audio and call features but drop the camera, which makes them lighter on privacy concerns and simpler to use around others.
Can other people hear my music?
At moderate volume, little sound leaks. At high volume in a quiet room, people nearby may hear it.
