Where each one stands
Meta Glasses: the EssilorLuxottica partnership's house-brand styles, camera plus open-ear audio, released 2026-06-23 in our record; six compatibility rows.
Meta Adventurer: same $299, pitched as a lower-cost line with six microphones; our record has no confirmed release date and marks cloud dependency 'n' — read the spec sheet, not the slogan.
Bottom line Meta Glasses has a dated release trail and frames from an eyewear giant. Adventurer is the value pitch with blanks still on its record — we flag the blanks rather than guess through them.
