**Bottom line: the RayNeo iO is the better buy for most people at $350 less, unless you need the brighter display.**

- Buy the Meta Ray-Ban Display if you need the brighter 5000-nit display (vs 1300 nits), you want a built-in camera, and you want adjustable lens dimming.
- Buy the RayNeo iO if you want to spend $350 less ($449 vs $799), you want the wider 23.5° field of view (vs 20°), you want the lighter 33g fit (vs 69g), and you need longer battery life (48 hours vs 6).
