Which should you buy?
What decides this is not the score, it is the display. Meta Ray-Ban Display shows information on the lens, while Ray-Ban Meta Audio shows nothing and answers through the speakers. Reading is far faster than listening, but you pay for it in battery, price and discretion.
The overall scores tie, so this is a use-case decision, not a scoreboard one.
Battery is not close: Ray-Ban Meta Audio lasts 12 hours against 6 h for the Meta Ray-Ban Display. The reason is the camera: recording is what drains the cell.
Meta Ray-Ban Display has a camera and Ray-Ban Meta Audio does not. If you want to capture without reaching for your phone, the comparison ends there.
Both have manufacturer-confirmed language support.
