Don’t Miss This Last Minute Black Friday Deal on the Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses at Target and Amazon
They have it for $90 “cheaper” than everyone else.
So far this year, Target stands near the top of the heap as the retailer with the best Black Friday deals so far. One such deal is on an intriguing – and a bit controversial – pair of smart glasses. Right now, Target is offering a 20% discount off the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Smart Glasses, with prices starting at $239.20. That’s the same 20% off deal you’ll find at other retailers, however Target is also throwing in a $90 Target gift card with your purchase. Combine the two and you’re saving up to 50% off. This will probably be the best deal you’ll find on this specific product.
Update: Amazon has matched this offer by throwing in $90 in Amazon digital credit.
Black Friday is ending in a few hours and this is one of those deals that may end at midnight. Right now, these smart glasses are still at the lowest price ever, so don’t worry if you’re late to the party because you haven’t missed any better deal. If you want a guaranteed shot at scoring this deal, you should jump on it now.
Up to $150 Off the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Smart Glasses
The Meta Wayfarer glasses are an influencer’s dream, and that’s exactly what they’re designed for: social media. They’re surprisingly slim and lightweight for glasses equipped with an integrated 12MP video camera and speaker. You can use them to take quick snapshots or up to 60 second videos that you can then upload to your social media of choice. You can even livestream 30 second videos in 720p. Note that there’s an LED that pulses whenever you’re taking a photo or video to let others know that they’re on camera. However, it’s pretty discreet and can be easily covered up, much to the displeasure of anyone who happens to be in front of you.
The Wayfarer glasses feature open-ear speakers with extended base and low distortion at high volumes in order to deal with wind and ambient noise. Five microphones built into the frame serve up good voice clarity when you’re making or receiving phone calls or recording audio. Connectivity options are up to date with both Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3. The internal battery provides up to four hours of continuous playtime on a single charge and up to 36 hours from the charging case. The Wayfarers are available in several different sizes and lenses options. The least expensive models sport pink or green lenses. The mid-range models have polarized sunglass lenses. The high-end models have transition lenses that automatically darken when you go outside.
If you’ve been wanting to give these glasses a try, this is the best deal you’ll find for the foreesable future, unless Ray-Ban or Meta decides to discontinue the product. With these types of products, there will inevitably be privacy issues that you’ll have to deal with, and it’s up to you to be responsible for how to use them. But right now I’m here to say “if you’re going to get them, there’s no better place and time than Target on Black Friday.”
