Lenskart smart glasses price revealed to be lower than Meta rivals, early access begins
Lenskart’s smart glasses have been in the conversation since November. We saw the reveal, followed by the developer push at that time and then there was a lull. Now, the company has opened early access registrations for its B by Lenskart smart glasses in India, and for the first time, we have a price. The smart glasses are priced at Rs 22,000 for early buyers, and if you buy them later, they’ll cost you Rs 27,000.
This is one of the first attempts at made-in-India AR-style glasses aimed at regular users, not just demos or developer kits. In a space where most options are imported and priced high, that gives this launch some weight.
Key features and specifications
At a glance, the B by Lenskart look like regular glasses. You get both clear lens and sunglasses versions, with slightly thicker arms to house the internals. There’s a small camera tucked into the front corner, but it doesn’t scream wearable tech.

Inside, it runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon AR1 Gen 1 chip with 32GB storage. That’s the same platform used by Ray-Ban Meta glasses, so this isn’t underpowered hardware. It connects over Bluetooth 5.3 and works with Android 12 and iOS 18 onwards. The glasses are not being pitched as a content-first device. There’s a 12MP camera and it can shoot 1080p video, but the bigger focus is on AI features through Google’s Gemini assistant. You can speak to it, get responses, take quick notes, and use features like “Look & Tell” to identify things around you. It also supports over 40 languages, which feels intentional for India.
Battery life is about four hours on the glasses, with a case that extends it to roughly 48 hours. Fast charging gets you halfway in about 15 minutes. It also supports prescription lenses from -6 to +6, so this can replace your regular pair instead of sitting in a drawer.
When we compare the B smart glasses to Ray-Ban Meta (the Gen 2 version starts around Rs 39,900 in India), we get similar core hardware, but the Meta ones give better video quality (up to 3K), longer battery life, and a more polished ecosystem for sharing content. The newer Meta Ray-Ban Display version goes much further with a built-in display and gesture controls, but at around Rs 70,000, it’s a very different conversation. Lenskart’s version is simpler with fewer headline features, but a clearer everyday use case.
Availability
Early access registrations are now live on Lenskart’s website. The glasses will be available in Black and Silver, with wider rollout expected after this initial phase. There’s no exact timeline yet for when this becomes widely available.
If you’re curious about smart glasses but don’t want to spend close to Rs 40,000 or more on an import, this is the first serious local option. If you want something more polished or feature-heavy, especially for content or social use, Meta’s glasses still have the edge.
