Meta hits pause on Ray-Ban Show enlargement plans

Worldwide prospects who had their sights set on Meta’s Ray-Ban Show sensible glasses should wait a little bit longer. Meta introduced that it’s pausing plans to launch the glasses in France, Italy, Canada, and the UK by early 2026, as a consequence of “unprecedented demand and restricted stock.”

“Since launching final fall, we’ve seen an awesome quantity of curiosity, and consequently, product waitlists now prolong nicely into 2026,” Meta mentioned in a CES weblog publish. “We’ll proceed to deal with fulfilling orders within the US whereas we re-evaluate our strategy to worldwide availability.”

Meta hasn’t supplied a brand new goal date for its worldwide rollout. In her overview, The Verge’s Victoria Music mentioned that the Ray-Ban Show sensible glasses are “the most effective I’ve ever tried,” so this delay could also be bitterly disappointing for worldwide prospects who’ve been itching to purchase a pair.
