Meta's Display Glasses Get a Game-Changing Handwriting Feature: What It Means for Users
In a significant upgrade to its display-enabled smart glasses, Meta is finally rolling out its highly anticipated handwriting feature, allowing users to send custom messages and replies without relying on voice dictation or preset responses. The company has been teasing this feature since last year's announcement, but it's taken some time to arrive.
For those who've worn the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses, this new feature is a game-changer. It's made me want to wear them more often, and I'm not alone – users enrolled in Meta's early access program have been eagerly awaiting its release. The handwriting feature is surprisingly intuitive, even if it wasn't perfect on my first try.
When you're wearing the glasses, you can quickly draw letters on a table or any other surface to send messages. It works remarkably well, with support for tracing out short sentences and correcting typos by swiping left or right. You can also add spaces between words with another swipe. The feature has reduced my reliance on voice commands, which I've always felt self-conscious about using in public.
The company is also announcing a new teleprompter feature, which allows you to beam up to 16,000 characters of text into the glasses' display. While it's not as seamless as some traditional teleprompters, where the text automatically scrolls while you speak, Meta's version gives users more control over when the words appear on screen.
The updates are a significant addition to the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses since their launch last year and demonstrate the company's commitment to keeping its devices fresh with new features. With these upgrades, Meta is signaling that it plans to continue updating its smart glasses with exciting new capabilities.
While the international rollout has been delayed, users who've tried the display glasses can look forward to enjoying these innovative features soon.

i was thinking of getting a new phone case instead, but now that they have this handwriting feature... 
maybe i should just splurge and try them out. btw, have you tried drawing with your eyes closed? 
it's actually pretty funny when you're wearing those glasses and can't see what you're doing... 
. The fact that it works well with swiping left or right to correct typos and adding spaces between words makes me love it even more. And the teleprompter feature is so cool! I can imagine it being super useful for content creators and public speakers who need to read from a script. It's awesome to see Meta updating its glasses like this, it really shows they're listening to their users 
.
I mean, think about it - we're basically living in a sci-fi movie where our smart glasses are essentially our personal secretaries and messaging apps all rolled into one 
. The handwriting feature is like something out of Star Trek - you just draw what you want to say and voilà! It's wild how much technology has advanced in the past few years, and I'm stoked to see where this tech takes us next 
! I was a bit skeptical at first, but it's actually super intuitive and game-changing for me too 
. And the teleprompter feature is a huge bonus for those who need to practice their presentations or speeches – it's like having a virtual whiteboard right on your glasses 
. Can't wait for the international rollout and getting my hands (or should I say, fingers 
) on these updates soon! 
! It's literally changed how I use them - no more relying on voice commands in public 
. The intuitive drawing feature is super cool, and the correction system is genius 
. Meta's really pushing the boundaries of what these glasses can do, and I'm excited to see where this tech takes us! 
. The fact that you can draw letters on a table and send messages is just genius 
.
. While it's not as seamless as traditional teleprompters, it's still super helpful and gives users more control over their experience 
.
I'm so behind on that! anyway back to these cool glasses... I wonder if you could use them to write recipes or draw out maps? that would be super helpful for planning trips 
. I mean, handwriting feature is neat and all, but it's still kinda awkward looking on paper... err, I mean, on a table . Can you imagine wearing those things just to send texts? 
. And I gotta give 'em props for making these updates even after last year's announcement 
.
.
I mean, 1 year is a pretty long time to wait for something that's supposed to be game-changing... The good news is it actually works really well once you get the hang of it 
And another thing, 16k characters of text on a teleprompter feature? Is that really necessary? Can't we just have a more seamless experience? Maybe I'm just not tech-savvy enough 
. meta is def killing it with these updates
