Which should you buy?
What decides this is not the score, it is the display. Ray-Ban Meta Audio shows nothing and answers through the speakers, while RayNeo iO shows information on the lens. Reading is far faster than listening, but you pay for it in battery, price and discretion.
Ray-Ban Meta Audio wins the overall score by 0.1 points, but that score averages six criteria and you will only use some of them.
Battery is not close: RayNeo iO lasts 48 hours against 12 h for the Ray-Ban Meta Audio. At that gap, one lasts the day and the other does not.
Both have manufacturer-confirmed language support.
On price, Ray-Ban Meta Audio is 200 € cheaper.
Watch the warranty: RayNeo iO offers 1 year and Ray-Ban Meta Audio offers 3 years.
