Hey Meta, look: These ‘futuristic’ smart glasses just dropped to $60 for Prime Day

Hey Meta, what are you doing?
As a major fan of Meta glasses myself, I couldn’t help but notice that the popular $350+ shades haven’t been discounted yet for Amazon Prime Day. Perhaps the brand is busy rolling out its new fashion-forward oval-shaped smart glasses with Kylie Jenner, which just launched on June 23.
But, while they’re doing all that, another pair of smart glasses is sitting pretty (and quietly stealing the spotlight) on Amazon. The popular Plunthorn design is marked down to just $60 for Prime Day.
These glasses offer real-time language translation, capture photos and videos, and include a built-in AI assistant with ChatGPT for everyday questions and basic tasks.
How We Find the Real Deals
Here at The Post, we don’t just diligently fact-check to call out fake news — we also relentlessly price-check to get you inflation-beating bargains you can trust. Before we recommend a single Prime Day purchase, our experienced bargain hunters put every “deal” through our price-checking gauntlet:
- The Background Check: We use hardcore tracking tools like CamelCamelCamel, Keepa and Amazon’s own Alexa to audit price history, ensuring mega sales aren’t just regular prices in disguise.
- The Retail Rivalry: We diligently cross-reference competitors like Walmart and Target to guarantee you actually see the lowest price on the web.
- And We’re Live: We track real-time trends and update our live coverage 24/7, keeping pace with shopper needs and retailer fluctuations.
But, there’s one catch: this Prime Day deal ends tomorrow, June 26, so there’s not much time left to take advantage of the savings.
Users say Plunthorn’s AI glasses “feel futuristic without being complicated.” And, another customer explained they’re a “solid budget pick if you don’t want to pay Meta x Ray-Ban prices.”
You can connect them to your smartphone via Bluetooth to stream music, take calls or use voice assistance — so you never have to pull your phone out. Plus, they’re IP65 water-resistant, making them ideal for running, cycling and hiking, so you can wear them through almost any adventure.
And they’re also pretty stylish, too. Interchangeable lenses let you switch between sunglasses and clear business-ready lenses. Users mention they are comfortable enough for daily wear.
