Black Friday still hasn’t arrived yet, but we’re already seeing the savings coming through – mostly Best Buy and Amazon, to be fair, but the reductions are pretty meaty.
We’ve been scouring the web looking for the best deals around on smart glasses, as this is one of the best times to invest in the chance to put a screen on your face.

The savings run into the hundreds of dollars, and the eight choices we’ve found so far are genuinely all at the lowest price we’ve seen them offered – which is pretty incredible this early on.
We’ve tested all these models (or their predecessors) so you know you’re getting a good deal thanks to the raft of savings we’re seeing already for Black Friday.
The best Black Friday smart glasses deals… so far
Before buying a pair of smart glasses, it’s important to think about how much you want to spend – the audio-only options from Amazon, for instance, are just a shade over $100 now, and are great if you want to just be able to control things with your voice on the go. At the other end of the scale, you can spend nearly $600 on something like the Xreal One Pro glasses, but you do get great visibility and a real alternative to actually using a monitor. The good news is we’ve found a range of options to bring great sound and video to your head – without disturbing others.
Amazon
Amazon Echo Frames (with Echo Spot) – $114
OK, they have no display, but these third-gen models are the most svelte and stylish from Amazon. We liked the innovative directional sound in our Frames review... and these come with a cheeky extra Spot speaker thrown in.
$114 at Amazon
Ray Ban
RayBan Meta (Gen 1) Wayfarer – $238
The RayBan Meta aren’t the newest versions from the brand, but they’re very good value at this lowest-ever price. Take hands free pictures on the go or have instant access to Meta AI wherever you are – a great Black Friday choice.
$238 at Amazon
Xreal
Xreal One – $399
We were big fans of these glasses in our Xreal One review – they truly are a set of lenses that can replace a monitor. The brightness, the clarity, the overall comfort all played well – and with super low latency, they’re a joy to use… especially at this price.
$399 at Amazon
Xreal
Xreal One Pro – $599
If you like the sound of the Xreal One glasses but would like something with a brighter display and a wider, more immersive field of view (up to 57 degrees, if you’re wondering) then the Pro models are a good choice. Pricey, but still $50 off.
$599 at Amazon
Rayneo
RayNeo Air 3s Pro – $249
Using Micro-OLED displays and 1200 nits of brightness, these are enticing smart glasses indeed – and for half the price of others. We’ve had RayNeo on our best lists for years – and there’s a $15 off coupon on these at Amazon.
$249 at Amazon
Viture
Viture Pro – $284
With 1000 nits of brightness, Harmon Audio and a 135-inch screen floating in front of your eyes, the Viture Pro are nicely adjustable with a great field of view. Good quality pictures and a immersive feel make these a good Black Friday bargain.
$284 at Amazon
Viture
Viture Luma Pro – $424
We loved these smart glasses in our test – comparing them to the much more expensive Vision Pro, we preferred the smart glasses. They’ve got great work smarts and just need a cable attachment to your laptop – a great productivity buy if you want to shut the world out.
$424 at Amazon
Rokid
Rokid Max – $150
While these look a bit bulky and, well, ‘smart glasses’ on your face, they’re only $150 and are nicely lightweight to wear. You’re only getting 600 nits of brightness, but you can adjust them for poor eyesight and they’ve got some of the largest virtual screens around.
$150 at Amazon
