- Meta counts 27 colour and lens combinations across the 3 frames (Meta). Ray-Ban India showed 14 Gen 3 listings on 14 Nov 2026, and its tiles don't name every colour.
- Meta announced a limited-edition vintage-style Aviator for the frame's 90th anniversary. Ray-Ban India's "Aviator Limited Edition" listing doesn't say it's that pair, so we can't confirm they match.
- Watch out: Ray-Ban India's Gen 3 page showed no standard-lens Aviator or Zena, and Croma showed no price on the day we checked. Confirm the exact variant before you pay.

Which Meta AI features work in India, and does it speak Hindi?
Meta hasn't confirmed Hindi for Gen 3 yet. Its Gen 2 India launch post (1 Dec 2025) says Gen 2 supports "full Hindi interaction" for questions, photo and video capture, media control and messages. Meta's Gen 3 India post doesn't mention Hindi, so this list comes from its earlier India posts. Other features Meta lists for India: - "Hey Meta" questions about what you're looking at, such as a landmark (Meta, 12 May 2025). - Deepika Padukone's voice as a Meta AI voice option. - Conversation Focus, which boosts voices in loud places. - Calls and messages through WhatsApp, Messenger and your phone, and music from Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon Music. Meta says music control needs English as your default language. - Live translation between English, French, Italian and Spanish, offline if you download the language packs first. We found no Meta source adding Hindi translation.
Not live yet: In the same Dec 2025 post, Meta said it was still trialling UPI payments by scanning a QR code ("Hey Meta, scan and pay"). We found no Meta confirmation that they've launched. Meta says its Muse agent comes to AI glasses "in the coming months" (Meta).

Can you get Ray-Ban Meta Gen 3 with prescription lenses in India?
Yes, through Ray-Ban stores, but the details are thin. - Meta designed Ray-Ban Meta frames to take prescription lenses (Meta). - Ray-Ban India offers prescription lenses in its stores and points you to a store locator, though that page doesn't mention Ray-Ban Meta. It lists no online prescription option or lens price for Gen 3 (Ray-Ban India). - For a frame built around prescriptions, Ray-Ban India sells the Gen 2 Blayzer Optics and Scriber Optics at ₹46,200, labelled "Made for prescriptions" (Ray-Ban India). We found no Gen 3 Optics frame in India. - Meta hasn't published a Gen 3 range on the pages we could load. Android Central reports -6.0 to +4.0 per lens for earlier Ray-Ban Meta models. - Keep lens work with Ray-Ban: the warranty excludes damage from lens fitting by anyone other than Luxottica or an authorised dealer.
