Meta's New Smart Glasses Come With a Blackpink Makeover

Blackpink's Lisa co-designed two $399 Meta smart glasses, a cat-eye Capri and a differently shaped Adventurer, both packing cameras, speakers and Meta AI.

Meta just put Blackpink's Lisa in charge of making its AI glasses look less like tech and more like an accessory.

The company unveiled Meta Glasses by Lisa at Meta Connect 2026, a two-style collection starting at $399: the cat-eye Capri, in a black eclipse frame with grey lenses, and the Adventurer, a different silhouette offered in a moonlit-sky frame with blush lenses or the same eclipse-and-grey combo. Both pairs get etched star accents on the temple tips, three-way adjustable nose pads, and a quilted star charging case good for 40 extra hours of battery. Buyers also get a collectible case charm modeled on Lisa's pets and a digital Lisa photocard that unlocks during setup. Hardware-wise, they run the same specs as Meta's other smart glasses: a 12MP camera, 3K point-of-view video, open-ear speakers with a six-microphone array, and full Meta AI voice access.

Meta announced the Lisa line alongside the new Meta Ray-Ban Gen 3 glasses, which add more frame options and spatial audio recording. Launching a celebrity fashion line the same day as a mainline hardware refresh suggests Meta sees smart glasses as a style purchase now, not just a gadget one - the same shift phone makers went through once cameras and chips stopped being the differentiator.

Strip away the star charms and photocards, and it's the same camera-and-speaker stack Meta already sells - this time with better merchandising.
