Meta delays latest international AI glasses launch
Meta is pushing back the international rollout of its latest Ray-Ban Meta Ray-Ban Display smart glasses, citing low stock and strong demand in the US. The glasses, which went on sale in the US in September 2025, were meant to reach the UK, Canada, France and Italy in early 2026. Instead, Meta says it will keep prioritising US orders while it “re-evaluates” how and when to expand sales abroad.
At CES 2026, the company paired the delay announcement with new features for the glasses and the companion Neural Band. Additions include a teleprompter aimed at presentations and social media videos, broader city coverage for navigation, and a pilot EMG Handwriting tool that lets users trace words with their fingers on any surface and have those movements turned into WhatsApp or Messenger texts. With the Neural Band, users can also pick suggested replies during chats, further tying the hardware into Meta’s messaging apps.
