Mark Zuckerberg appears to be demonstrating Meta’s smart glasses in public, taking business calls while on a jet ski and wearing what he has described as $800 “Meta glasses.” In the video and reports, Zuckerberg says the other person could not tell he was wearing the device, underscoring his view that smart glasses can be used in everyday situations without drawing obvious attention.
Both outlets frame the effort as part of Zuckerberg’s broader push to accelerate the adoption of smart glasses. The coverage also links the public demonstration to Meta’s continued investment in its Reality Labs unit, which is reported to be running substantial losses. One source notes Reality Labs posts a $19.2 billion loss, positioning the jet ski episode as part of the company’s bet that smart glasses could eventually replace smartphones.
The reporting is consistent that Zuckerberg is using the glasses in a practical, on-the-go scenario and is presenting them as ready for mainstream use, while Meta’s financial results related to the technology remain under pressure.
