Samsung's first Android XR glasses, called Intelligent Eyewear, will launch in November following their July Galaxy Unpacked showcase. A Samsung official confirmed the November timeline, though pricing remains undisclosed. The glasses feature no display but include a camera, microphones, and speakers, with Google's Gemini AI processing data through a connected Galaxy smartphone.
Users can speak to the AI and hear responses through built-in speakers. Samsung aims to make the device 'up to 5g lighter' than Meta's 51g Ray-Bans, though exact weight is unconfirmed. Meta dominates the display-less AI glasses market with 96%, recently launching camera-less Ray-Ban Meta Audio glasses for privacy-conscious users.
Samsung collaborates with Korea's Personal Information Protection Commission on recording alerts, implementing internal and external LEDs to indicate recording status, and disables recording if external indicators are blocked.
