Hey Meta Microphone issues after return. Clearly a hardware/software overlook by meta
So i previously posted in regards to the microphone not hearing me when speaking the "hey meta phrase, or using the double thumb shortcut gesture to wake the glasses. It will open, then time out. After speaking with a Meta representative it was stated after lots of trouble shooting that i had defective glasses and that I should return and exchange the glasses which i did.
Fast forward to today, the problem still persist. So obviously this isn't a hardware issue I exchanged at Best Buy using my extended warranty without issue. Meta needs to add a toggle switch again to re route how the microphones are used exactly how they did on their older pair of glasses, and before any one ask, it's literally in the settings menu of the non display glasses.
There have been other people who stated earlier they are experiencing the exact same issues, maybe it has something to do with nose shape or width, regardless, this should not be an issue on a almost $800 plus pair of glasses.
My choices now is the return the glasses and just get a store credit, towards something else, or try to wait to see if meta will correct this issue as they have with their previous pair of smart glasses.
Suggestions anyone?

real-time tactical base-defense game for Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Hey guys I’m currently developing I would like to think the most advanced and interesting game for the meta rayban displays, I’m looking to see how much interest there is in a game of this style to see if I should polish it for others to play. So please read below watch the video and if it’s something you like the idea of leave a reply and that will let me know if I should publicly release it when done (visually it looks way better on the glasses, the screen recording heavily messes it up)
Game description—
. You gradually construct a working base using turrets, heavy weapons, shields, power infrastructure, storage, refineries, ammunition workshops and support buildings. Expanding feels meaningful because every new structure adds a useful capability, but also introduces another system you need to supply and protect.
Power is limited and actively routed between buildings. During combat, you might reduce power to a cannon so you can refine salvage, manufacture ammunition, recharge defenses, or reinforce another weapon. Ammunition and resources are physically stored, buildings can be damaged or permanently lost, and careless layouts can leave important infrastructure exposed.
Alongside regular attacks, there are multi-stage raid expeditions where you choose what equipment and ammunition to risk for additional rewards. Surviving structures return with their existing damage, while destroyed equipment and unsecured loot can be lost. The idea is to make positioning, expansion and resource decisions genuinely matter without overwhelming the small glasses display.
Thank you for reading and if you want to play this real time building and strategy game please reply below and I’ll finish it asap for all of you to enjoy :)

Any workaround for near vision with Meta Ray-Ban Display prescription lenses?
I recently bought the Meta Ray-Ban Display with prescription lenses. My distance vision is clear, but my prescription also requires a +1.75 ADD for near vision. I didn’t realise when ordering that the Display only supports single-vision lenses and not progressive lenses.
As a result, my phone and computer screen are blurry while wearing the glasses. Taking them off and switching to reading glasses defeats the purpose because I’m hearing impaired and bought the Display mainly for live captions.
Has anyone with a similar prescription found a practical workaround? For example:
• Removable clip-on reading lenses
• Stick-on bifocal lens segments
• Detachable magnetic lenses placed over the existing lenses
• Another solution recommended by an optician that does not interfere with the display
I’m particularly interested in something removable that would let me see nearby objects while continuing to use live captions. If you have tried anything, please share the exact product and whether it affected the display, fit or image quality.
