How to get the Ray

Save $60: By opting for refurbished Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses, you can grab them for just $239 instead of the $299 they'd be brand new. This price isn't Prime Day-specific, but for anyone who was hoping to see these glasses go on sale during Prime Day, it's the best "deal" you can get.

Considering there are well over 300 deals we think are worth checking out, it can certainly feel like anything and everything goes on sale during Prime Day. However, if you were waiting for Prime Big Deal Days to cut on the price down on the Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses, you may be disappointed.

Unless, of course, you're open to buying refurbished. Compared to the $299 list price of the glasses, refurbished Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses start at $239. Though they're not technically on sale, nor at a price unique to Prime Day, it is a way to grab the glasses for slightly cheaper.

For those unfamiliar, these smart glasses are designed to be a stylish wearable that gives you easy access to a camera, texts, calls, music, and an AI assistant without ever having to use your phone. When she tested them after their release, Mashable tech editor Kim Gedeon was impressed by their sound quality and general hands-free experience.
