There aren't a ton of smart glasses marked down for Amazon's Big Spring Sale—Ray-Ban Metas are full price, as are RayNeos, Rokids, and most other name-brand glasses—but there are still bargains to be found in the smart glasses department, including my all-time favorite pair of display style glasses.
Display style smart glasses on sale for Amazon's Big Spring Sale
This category of smart glasses acts as a virtual monitor. You plug them into a USB-C device and can use them as a second screen for gaming, streaming, or working. They are the best thing to have on an airplane, trust me.
XReal One Pro: XReal's flagship smart glasses are the best display glasses I've used to date. The resolution, field-of-view, audio quality, and customization options make them second to none, as you can read in my full review. But they are not cheap. For the Amazon Big Spring Sale, though, they're $598.98, which is 22% off the regular price of $769.00. But that price is a little misleading—Amazon has only sold them for the "list" price for short periods of time, as you can see in this price chart below; the current price comes up more frequently than the supposed list price. But if you want the best display glasses on the market, you found them.
VITURE Luma Pro XR Glasses: I have not had a chance to test these Viture Luma Pro XR glasses yet, but they've earned four out of five stars from Amazon's reviewers and a 4-star review from PCMag. They offer a respectable 52° field-of-view, the equivalent of a 153" display, and you can use them to work with three virtual screens in augmented reality. They're on sale for $399, the lowest price Amazon has sold them for.
Audio-first smart glasses on sale for Amazon's Big Spring Sale
This variety of smart glasses don't display anything or take any pictures. They're just for audio, so they're akin to a Bluetooth speaker embedded within a pair of sunglasses.
Carrera smart glasses with Alexa: The mark down is significant on these Carrera smart glasses. They're $149.99, down 62% from list. Carrera makes designer frames, and I can't find any dumb glasses on the company's website for less than $200, so if you like the look of these specs, you're getting a good deal. The "tech" part of these glasses is audio-only, so you can use them for listening to music or podcasts and taking calls, but you can also use them to talk to Alexa+, Amazon's assistant. That means you can control your smart home with them.
Simple is Beauty smart Bluetooth glasses: These generic Bluetooth sunglasses are $20, but they let you connect to your phone to listen to music and make calls, plus they protect your eyes from the sun. I can't speak for this specific pair of generic audio glasses, but I I compared the sound quality of a pair like them to a bunch of more expensive smart glasses, and I found that the $20 sunglasses sounded fine—not great, mind you, but better than I expected. So if you want music while you're working out, and you don't want to spend much, these could be for you.
Photo and AI smart glasses on sale for Amazon's Big Spring Sale
This is the category that Ray-Ban Meta glasses fall into: glasses that take photos and video, play audio, and have some kind of AI assistant. Sadly, Meta glasses are not on sale during the Big Spring Sale. That leaves us with...
NILUTO AI Smart Glasses with Camera: There are a ton of generic "AI Smart Glasses" available for sale on Amazon that seem suspiciously similar. They all say they have 8MP cameras and "AI assistants" and the frames look identical. I can't say for sure, but they seem like the same product being sold by different companies at wildly different prices: Some have a list price of $279.99. Some are listed at $159. But the ones I linked to are $59.99, the lowest price I can find. At higher prices, these things aren't worth it—you might as well just get some Metas—but if you need a cheap camera in your glasses or a way to listen to music, a $60 pair of generic glasses might be just the thing.
