Meta Ray-Ban Smart Glasses: The Cringey Live Demo That Rocked Meta Connect
Rewind to a pivotal Wednesday at Meta Connect, where Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg faced an unexpected challenge during the live demonstration of the then-new Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses. The highly anticipated reveal took an awkward turn as the glasses spectacularly failed, leaving Zuckerberg to navigate a palpable silence when a crucial phone call failed to materialize.
The gaffes weren’t limited to the CEO’s segment. Another attempt to showcase the glasses’ live AI capabilities through a cooking demo also faltered. The device struggled to process its surroundings, getting ‘irreparably stuck’ while attempting to make a sauce, further amplifying the event’s cringeworthy moments.
Despite these initial public missteps, which occurred at a critical product launch priced at $799.99, early consumer reviews for the Meta Ray-Ban glasses have been largely positive, suggesting that the live demo failures might not have been indicative of the product’s real-world performance.
