Meta's New Smart Glasses with Display and EMG Wristband Priced Around $800
Meta plans to sell its upcoming HUD glasses, codenamed Hypernova and called Meta Celeste, at around $800, lower than initial estimates of over $1000, aiming to boost demand with a more affordable price point. The glasses will feature a small heads-up display controlled by finger gestures via an sEMG neural wristband, and are expected to launch in October, with preorders opening in September. The reduced price reflects Meta's strategy to increase adoption despite lower profit margins.
