Fios is Verizon's high-speed fiber-optic internet network, offering speeds from 300 Mbps to a blazing-fast 2 Gbps. And right now, when new customers sign up or switch to a Fios 1 Gbps or 2 Gbps home internet plan, they can get a pair of Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses absolutely free.

With both the 1 Gbps and 2 Gbps plans, you'll get a whole-home Wi-Fi router system at no extra cost for total signal coverage and to eliminate internet dead zones inside your home. Verizon also offers a monitoring system that checks the signal strength between your Wi-Fi router and connected devices and automatically sends a Wi-Fi extender if needed. 

Also: Which Meta Ray-Bans model should you buy? 

The 1 Gbps plan starts at $75 per month, while the 2 Gbps service starts at $95. And with a 5-year price lock guarantee, you can keep your current plan price through 2031 for long-term savings. Both plans also offer additional perks, such as free subscriptions to popular apps. 

And if Fios isn't available in your area, signing up for a new 5G Home Ultimate plan will get you a $500 voucher toward the purchase of a Samsung device, appliance, or TV at Best Buy. 

The Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses feature the iconic Wayfarer design, seamlessly integrating the dual camera system into the frame. The tinted lenses offer 100% protection against UVA and UVB radiation, and the integrated battery provides up to 36 hours of use on a full charge. 

As for camera quality, it's equipped with a 12MP sensor that captures stills and video, while the 32GB of internal storage lets you save your favorite shots and clips from hikes, beach days, and more. You're limited to vertical footage, not wider shots as you'd traditionally record on a phone or camera, but the footage should still be fit for social media sharing.

How I rated this deal 

While it would be nice to see a steeper discount on the Fios home internet plans themselves, a free pair of Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses on top of a 5-year price lock guarantee helps take the sting out of setting up a new service or switching. 

With speeds up to 2 Gbps, the Fios fiber-optic internet network from Verizon delivers fast Ethernet and Wi-Fi for gaming, streaming, and working from home. That's why I gave this deal a 5/5 Editor's rating.
