[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I e got this Oakley Meta Vanguard glasses for my honest review. I really enjoyed testing it last month. They just look and feels lite a normal Oakley glasses not that much heavier. Sporty look and quality lenses. The technology included in this glasses just amazes me. I connected it with my Garmin watches. It helps track and analyze activities. The video and photo quality is exceptional. The hands free technology allows you to start videotaping “on the go” from you point of view. The speakers included surprised me the most. The sound is soo good and person even close to me can not hear a thing. So I can make a calls or listen to podcasts during my walk/run and still be aware what is going on around me. Meta ai comes handy. I used it to recognize what type of plants I was looking at. There are a couple downsize for these glasses first is the price which is definitely down the height side. But remember, it’s not the regular glasses. It’s the whole top notch technology comes with it too. And also some privacy concerns.
Overall, if you are staying active and use Garmin I would recommend it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Shockingly high quality videos, audio, and photos! These glasses are lightweight, sit well and comfortable on my nose and don’t bounce around at all (nor are they too tight). No adjustment required for me, they fit perfectly right outside the box. Once you get a hang of how to control buttons/touch screen it’s super intuitive to use (similar to getting used to using a pair of AirPods). So far I’ve only used this for cycling but would also be great for snow sports and even trail runs. I’m a petit female so they do look a little big on me but they feel super comfortable and also provide excellent sun protection. Even though they are lightweight they seem sturdy and durable. The audio is surprisingly great and allows me to listen to music without wearing headphones and without everyone hearing what I’m listening to (magic!). These would make a super fun gift for a cycling or other sports enthusiast or a special gift for yourself. Charge holds very well and is easy to recharge in case.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s been too cold, but I would love to wear these on some kind of motorcycle or other ATV type of vehicle to test the sound. It is very user friendly. Comfortable easy to understand and use. I am interested in investing in a regular prescription lens pair.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Oakley Meta sunglasses for a few weeks and overall they’re an exciting mix of premium Oakley eyewear and smart technology. The frames feel solid and comfy for all-day wear, and the Prizm lenses deliver clear, contrast-rich vision in bright conditions. The instructions were easy to follow and get started . There is nothing to assemble as well they come ready to go!
The built-in camera is a standout — it captures good quality point-of-view photos and video without needing to pull out your phone, which is great for outdoor activities or quick clips on the go. Voice-controlled AI features and open-ear audio add helpful hands-free convenience.
Pros:
• Sharp optics and classic Oakley comfort.
• Fun, easy POV capture.
• Useful voice and AI features without bulky gear.
• Open-ear audio keeps you aware of your surroundings.
Cons:
• Battery life isn’t great if you use the camera and AI features heavily — you’ll need to recharge more often than with regular sunglasses.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best AI glasses on the market! The clarity is superb! They feel super comfortable and the lenses are the perfect amount of tint. The coverage is great also! These are super easy to use and hold a charge for several hours! I used them and still had battery left at the end of the day. Highly recommend these!

Love it but some drawbacks
5 out of 5 rating
ngocmbui_292 . 27 days ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The camera and video quality are surprisingly good for glasses, making hands-free photos and videos during activities like cycling or sightseeing incredibly convenient and safer than pulling out a phone. Audio quality is also solid, and listening to music feels immersive for an open-ear design.
However, battery life is the biggest drawback. While advertised for longer use, real-world performance falls short—especially when recording video or playing music at higher volumes. 2–4 hours of use depending on how much video you capture, which makes.
Comfort is generally good, though the lens can feel a bit dark in lower light, and software features like photo organization still feel limited.
Overall, great for short, active sessions and casual use. If you value convenience, audio, and hands-free capture, they’re enjoyable but battery constraints prevent them from being a true all day wearable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Oakley Meta Vanguard sunglasses during outdoor workouts and fishing trips. I’m genuinely impressed with their performance and comfort.
The Prizm™ Road lenses make a noticeable difference in clarity and contrast. Colors appear sharper and more defined, especially in bright sunlight, which helps reduce eye strain during longer periods outside. Glare is minimized without making everything look too dark, which I really appreciate.
The fit is secure yet lightweight, staying comfortably in place even with movement. They don’t pinch or slide, and the frame feels durable without being bulky. I also love the sleek, sporty design. It looks great while still being practical for active use.
Overall, these sunglasses deliver on both function and style. They’re a great choice for anyone who spends time outdoors and wants clear vision, comfort, and reliable eye protection.
I would absolutely recommend these to anyone looking for high-quality performance sunglasses.

Stylish, Comfortable, and Smart Wearable Design
5 out of 5 rating
alyssad183_4629 . 1 month ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Oakley Meta Vanguard glasses every day, and they’ve been a great companion to my Garmin watch and active lifestyle. The fit is lightweight and comfortable, with sleek styling that works for workouts or daily wear. What really impresses me are the built-in smart features, the audio is crisp for listening to music without headphones, and the hands-free controls are intuitive. They pair easily with my devices, and it feels like the AI-assisted design really enhances both the comfort and the tech experience. Music playback stays clear even on the move, and the glasses integrate smoothly with my Garmin alerts and activity tracking. For anyone who wants eyewear that’s both functional and high-tech, these deliver.

Cool Tech Glasses - Tight Fit for Adult Heads
4 out of 5 rating
lisap458_2603 . 1 month ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Oakley Meta glasses are definitely one of those things that nobody needs but are cool to have. They were incredibly easy to setup, and I appreciate that you don’t necessarily need a Facebook account. You just download the app and pair the glasses with Bluetooth. The charging case is also nice and durable and should protect the glasses well.
My biggest gripe with the glasses is the fit. I have a fairly large head, and these definitely feel tight and pinch the sides of my head. I understand that they’re meant to be fitted so they don’t fall off while active, but I find them fairly uncomfortable. They fit my 9 year old daughter’s head well, which proves my point. I am hopeful that they will stretch with further use but wish they could be adjusted.
On the positive side, the image and video quality are surprisingly good, and I like that you can verbally make commands to take pictures or record. I’m looking forward to my daughter’s soccer season starting so I can sport these while taking video. My daughter is also having a lot of fun playing around with the AI features and asking silly questions like “how old do you think this person is?” or “does my sister look happy?”. They’re also great for listening to music and can be integrated with Apple Music, Amazon Music and a few other apps.
Overall, these are a neat gadget, albeit a little pricey, so I definitely appreciate receiving these from Influenster in exchange for my honest feedback.
