Ray-Ban Meta warranty for smartwatches & wearables
The short version
Ray-Ban Meta doesn't cover everything, but keeps whole glasses covered to 1 year. That full coverage is the same as most of the 14 brands we compared, which typically cover nothing in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Ray-Ban Meta's published warranty, checked October 2026.
