Smart glasses in Germany
17 models are confirmed on sale in Germany, and Meta supports 1 more model there through its brand-level country list.
Germany has one of the widest selections in Europe. Meta sells Ray-Ban Meta Gen 3, Oakley Meta and Meta Glasses, and Meta Ray-Ban Display was on pre-order here, with sales reported to start on 13 October 2026. Meta AI arrived in German in April 2025, and asking about what you see followed in the EU rollout that spring. The gaps are about newer software: Live AI, Restyle, Autocapture and the Early Access Program are not listed for Germany, and walking directions are listed for Hamburg only. Germany is also a good market for display glasses: XREAL's EU store sells the 1S, One and R1, RayNeo sells the X3 Pro, and Rokid's AI Glasses Style is sold through Amazon Germany. Germany is one of only three EU countries on Meta's Display list, with France and Italy.

Questions people ask
Why are some Meta AI features missing in Germany?
Meta rolls features out by country and language. The newer ones on this page, such as Live AI and Restyle, are listed only for the US and a few other markets; Meta has not given an EU date for them.
Can I use Meta AI in German?
Yes. German has been a Meta AI language in Germany, Austria and other markets since the April 2025 rollout.
