New Delhi, Aug 12
The global shipment of smart glasses grew by 110 per cent YoY in H1 CY2025, a report said on Tuesday.
This surge was driven by strong demand for Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses and new companies like Xiaomi and TCL-RayNeo, according to a report from Counterpoint Research.
In the first half of 2025, Meta's share of the worldwide smart glasses market rose to 73 per cent due to strong demand and expanded manufacturing capacity at Luxottica, its key production partner..
Apart from Meta, Xiaomi, TCL-RayNeo, Kopin Solos, and Thunderobot achieved considerable shipments in H1 2025. More models of AI glasses are expected to enter the market in H2 2025, including upcoming releases from Meta, Alibaba and several smaller players, the report said.
Ray-Ban Meta AI Glasses top smart glass shipments to North America, Western Europe, and Australia. In Q2 2025, Meta and Luxottica expanded to India, Mexico and the UAE, which also boosted shipment shares in these markets.
"We continue to expect the market to grow at a CAGR of over 60 per cent between 2024 and 2029. This expansion could benefit all players across the ecosystem, such as smart glasses OEMs, processor vendors, suppliers of audio and structural components," the report said.
