Meta Ray-Ban Display smart glasses are receiving feature updates including holographic avatar support for calls, which uses voice and expression inference. Heads-up navigation now supports cycling and public transit directions with conversational cues like "turn left at the yellow house." A new Explore app will help users find compatible programs. Other improvements include Dolby Atmos audio, photo editing, detailed calendar, mirrored phone notifications, and Threads integration.

The glasses are expanding to five new markets: the UK, Canada, France, Italy, and Germany. Pricing starts at £749 in the UK, CA$1,149 in Canada, and €899 in the other regions, with pre-orders starting today and availability on October 13 for some markets.
