We also applied machine learning-enhanced tone rendering to enhance photos and videos, so they feel as authentic as the moment itself. I expected the speakers on both sides of the frame to be soft and hollow, but they were surprisingly loud and full.

A Facebook account is required to use them, but the company isn’t analyzing what you record and save in the View app to personalize ads to you.

Where Snap’s design team has leaned into the Burning Man aesthetic for its Spectacles, Facebook and Ray-Ban went normcore. If you ignore the fact that they have cameras clubmaster and wireless connectivity, Ray-Ban Stories are just a pair of Wayfarers. We weighed one of the pairs, which measured 49.3 grams—just shy of the stated 49.6 grams cited in the specs, and around 5 grams more than the original Wayfarers they’re modeled after.
Ray Ban has been making high-quality eyeglasses, sunglasses, and frames since 1936. However, their origin story starts a few years prior to the release of their first official pair of sunglasses. The Ray Ban Clubmaster sunglasses model is patterned after the famous Shuron Ronsir Zyl frame which is one of the most famous and time-honored designer frames in American culture.
