Meta said on Tuesday its Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses would be available for sale in India starting May 19 at a starting price of ₹29,990 (about $353).

The smart glasses are currently available for preorder on Ray-Ban’s site and will be stocked in Ray-Ban stores at launch.

Meta said the smart glasses launching in India will support Meta AI, which can answer questions about what’s in front of you, translate both audio and video live, send messages via your phone, make calls for you, and more.

The smart glasses currently support live translation for English, French, Italian, and Spanish, even when users are offline. Notably, Meta hasn’t added support for Indian languages yet.

Meta has said it would enable the glasses to connect and play music through apps like Spotify, Amazon Music, Shazam, and Apple Music in India.

The company has so far sold around 2 million pairs of the glasses since they launched in 2023.
