Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 is available at Mascom International for KSh 39,000, a current offer on brand new and sealed stock in model RW4010, size 52, with a black frame and blue lenses. Made by Ray-Ban with Meta, the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 hides a 12MP ultra-wide camera, 1080p video recording, 32GB of storage, open-ear speakers and a five-microphone array inside a cat-eye frame. Meta AI answers voice questions, and a charging case tops the glasses up on the go. Collect your pair at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, in Nairobi CBD.
Designed for content creators, journalists and estate agents, the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 handles the moments when holding a phone gets in the way. A property walkthrough in Kilimani, a street interview in Westlands or a sunset at Diani all need both hands free. Press the capture button on the temple or say a voice command, and the camera records what you see from eye level. Calls and music play through speakers near your ears, so you still hear traffic and conversation around you. With upswept outer corners, the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 flatters oval and heart-shaped faces.
Where many Nairobi electronics shops sell camera glasses from catalogue photos alone, Mascom International lets you try the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 on at our Kimathi Street store, pair it with your phone and take a test shot before paying. Customers across Nairobi tell us the cat-eye frame looks like ordinary sunglasses, which keeps people relaxed when you are filming. At KSh 39,000, the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 costs KSh 9,000 less than the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Gen 1 with green lenses. Visit the store, or order with pay-on-arrival delivery to any of Kenya's 47 counties.
Common Questions About the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1
How much is the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 in Kenya?
The Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 costs KSh 39,000 at Mascom International in Nairobi, a current offer on brand new and sealed stock. That price covers the RW4010 glasses in size 52 with the black frame and blue lenses, the charging case, a cleaning cloth and the 12-month warranty. Delivery is pay-on-arrival, so you inspect the sealed box before any money changes hands. The two Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Gen 1 pairs we stock sit at KSh 48,000 and KSh 49,000, so the Skyler saves you at least KSh 9,000.
Should I pick the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 or the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Gen 1?
Both pairs share the same 12MP camera, 32GB storage, open-ear speakers and Meta AI, so the choice comes down to style and budget. The Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 uses a cat-eye frame in size 52 whose outer corners lift upward for a softer, fashion-led look. The Wayfarer Gen 1 keeps the classic square Ray-Ban shape in size 50, which reads as more traditional and suits angular faces. The Skyler costs KSh 39,000 against KSh 48,000 or KSh 49,000 for the Wayfarer. Try both on at our Kimathi Street store before deciding.
Will the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 work with my phone on Safaricom or Airtel?
Yes, the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 pairs with any phone running Android 10 or iOS 14.4 and newer, whichever Kenyan network you use. The glasses link to your phone, and the phone supplies the internet, so Safaricom, Airtel Kenya and Telkom lines all work. Setup runs through the free Meta AI app, formerly called Meta View. Importing photos uses a direct wireless link rather than your data bundle, while live streaming and Meta AI answers draw on mobile data. Some Meta AI features depend on regional availability, so test them in store first.
What can the 12MP camera on the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 capture?
The Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 takes 12MP ultra-wide photos at 3024 x 4032 pixels and records 1080p video at 30 frames per second. Shots come out in portrait orientation, the same format people scroll on Instagram Stories, TikTok and WhatsApp Status. The ultra-wide lens takes in roughly what your eyes see, so a busy market scene or a wedding toast fits without stepping back. A small light on the front glows while recording, telling people nearby the camera is on. Daylight gives the cleanest results, while dim rooms soften fine detail.
How long does the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 battery last?
The Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 runs up to 4 hours on one charge, and its case adds up to 8 more charges, or about 32 extra hours. Video recording and live streaming drain it faster than music or calls. Folding the glasses into the case refills them between uses, so a full day out rarely needs a wall socket. That helps during KPLC power cuts, because a fully charged case keeps the glasses going through an evening outage and beyond. The case charges over USB-C from a phone charger or power bank.
Who is the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 for, and who should look elsewhere?
The Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 suits creators, journalists, travellers and parents who want photos and calls without lifting a phone, and who like a cat-eye look. Skip it if you mainly film long videos, since the 4-hour battery and short clips limit extended shoots; a dedicated action camera serves that job better. Skip it too if you need prescription lenses straight away, because this pair ships with tinted sunglass lenses. Buyers wanting longer battery life and sharper video should look at the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Gen 2, which Mascom International stocks at KSh 59,000.
How do the RW4010 frame measurements fit?
The Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 in size 52 has 52mm lenses, a 20mm bridge, 150mm temples and a 42mm lens height, which Ray-Ban classes as a medium fit. In practice it sits comfortably on most adult faces of average width, with the cat-eye corners adding lift at the edges. Wearers with broad faces may find the arms snug. Because fit is personal, staff at Mascom International let you try the pair on in front of a mirror. Delivery customers can send their usual sunglass size on WhatsApp for a quick check.
Is the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 worth it at KSh 39,000?
For most buyers, yes: the Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 delivers the same camera, speakers, five microphones and Meta AI as the Gen 1 Wayfarer for KSh 9,000 less. At Mascom International, we're seeing Gen 1 pairs chosen as first camera glasses by people testing whether hands-free capture fits their routine. Compared with the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Gen 2, you give up some battery life and video resolution. For daily recording, the extra KSh 20,000 may pay off; for occasional photos, music and calls, this offer is the sensible entry point.
Technical Specifications
Camera and Video Capture
- 12MP ultra-wide camera — wide photos taken from eye level, showing the scene exactly as you saw it.
- Photo resolution of 3024 x 4032 pixels — enough detail to crop a group shot and still share it clearly online.
- 1080p video at 30 frames per second — Full HD clips, the standard quality for social media posts and Shorts.
- Portrait orientation by default — videos fill a phone screen with no rotating or cropping before posting to Status.
- Capture light on the frame front — a small LED shows people nearby that recording has started, a built-in privacy signal.
Audio, Microphones and Meta AI
- Two custom open-ear speakers — sound plays near your ears without blocking them, so street noise stays audible.
- Five-microphone array — picks up your voice clearly on calls and records fuller sound with every video clip.
- Meta AI voice assistant — say "Hey Meta" to take a photo, send a message or ask a question hands-free.
- Touchpad on the right arm — tap or swipe to pause music, change volume and answer calls without your phone.
- Capture button on top of the frame — one press takes a photo, while a longer press starts a video.
Battery and Charging Case
- Up to 4 hours of use per charge — covers a morning of music, calls and occasional photos before topping up.
- Charging case with up to 8 additional charges — the glasses refill whenever you fold them inside, away from a socket.
- Up to 32 hours of extra time from a full case — useful on long trips and through evening power interruptions.
- USB-C port on the case — charges from the same cable and adapter most modern Android phones already use.
- Drain depends on how you use them — video recording and streaming use more power than music or voice calls.
Connectivity and Storage
- 32GB flash storage — holds more than 500 photos or over 100 thirty-second videos before you need to import them.
- Wi-Fi 6 certified — moves photos and clips to your phone quickly over a direct wireless link.
- Bluetooth connection — streams music, podcasts and calls from your phone to the speakers in the arms.
- Meta AI app, formerly Meta View — handles setup, imports and settings on iOS 14.4 or Android 10 and newer.
- WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram and Facebook support — send messages, take calls and share clips using voice commands.
Frame Build and Lenses
- RW4010 Skyler cat-eye frame — upswept outer corners give a softer, fashion-led look than square frames.
- Size 52 with a 20mm bridge and 150mm temples — a medium fit that suits most adult faces.
- Black injected frame — a lightweight moulded material that hides the camera, speakers and battery inside the arms.
- Blue tinted lenses — cut glare outdoors while giving the black frame a distinctive splash of colour.
- Polycarbonate lens material — lighter and more impact-resistant than glass, a sensible choice for everyday wear.
Package Contents
The Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 arrives brand new and sealed with the RW4010 glasses, the charging case, a cleaning cloth and a quick start guide.

Compatible USB-C cables and chargers are sold separately at Mascom International if you want a dedicated set for home or office.

The Ray-Ban Meta Skyler Gen 1 ships with a 12-month warranty through Mascom International, covering manufacturing defects under normal use.
