  • Amazon marked down Meta’s full Ray-Ban smart-glasses lineup for Memorial Day, with first-generation models discounted 25% and second-generation versions 15%.
  • Oakley HSTN smart glasses are also included at 20% off—about $95 off list price—while buyers can add prescription lenses at an extra 20% discount.
  • The sale highlights one of Meta’s strongest AI hardware categories: second-generation Ray-Bans offer 3K video and up to 8 hours of battery life, versus 1080p+ and about 4 hours on the first generation.
  • The discounts extend Amazon’s broader Memorial Day promotion, which earlier featured markdowns across brands including Apple, Ninja and Adidas.
