Meta is gearing up to launch its first-ever smart glasses with an integrated display, internally codenamed Hypernova<\/strong>, next month. The upcoming device is expected to carry a starting price of around $800<\/strong>, a significant drop from the earlier $1,000\u2013$1,400 range previously discussed during its development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Price Positioning Compared to Competitors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The decision to lower the price is seen as Meta\u2019s strategic move to make Hypernova more accessible and competitive in the wearables market. While Meta\u2019s existing Ray-Ban smart glasses sell for $200\u2013$400, the new Hypernova model will target a higher-end segment. Even at $800, the device remains more expensive than an entry-level iPhone 16, but far more affordable than originally anticipated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Features and Early Insights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to leaks, the Hypernova smart glasses<\/strong> will include a small display on the right lens capable of showing mini-apps, notifications, and alerts<\/strong>. The glasses are also expected to support dedicated apps<\/strong> for taking and viewing photos, as well as navigation tools like maps. Notifications from Meta apps such as WhatsApp and Messenger are also likely to be integrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The glasses may be paired with a neural wrist accessory<\/strong>, previously seen with Meta\u2019s Orion AR prototypes, allowing users to control the device seamlessly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Software and Ecosystem<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hypernova is expected to run on a highly customised version of Android<\/strong>, though reports suggest there won\u2019t be an app store at launch. The interface will likely feature a horizontally laid-out icon system<\/strong>, similar to Apple\u2019s iOS or Meta\u2019s Quest headset home screen. Boot screens will showcase Meta branding alongside partners like Qualcomm<\/strong>, whose chipsets are expected to power the device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Market Implications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

By reducing margins and lowering the entry price, Meta is attempting to generate broader demand for its first AR-capable glasses. The Hypernova launch is seen as a precursor to Meta\u2019s fully immersive augmented reality glasses<\/strong>, which remain in development. With wearables and mixed reality gaining traction, the device is expected to play a pivotal role in Meta\u2019s long-term hardware roadmap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
