Images and details about Samsung’s upcoming smart glasses have leaked, according to a report by Android Headlines<\/a>. We knew these were coming at some point<\/a>, but we now have what could be actual photos and they look pretty nifty. The glasses are reportedly being developed under the codename “Jinju” and could cost anywhere from $380 to $500.<\/p>\n

These are the first smart glasses from Samsung and look to offer a similar feature set to stuff like Meta Ray-Bans<\/a> and the forthcoming Google Gemini glasses<\/a>. Samsung’s specs will run on the Android XR wearables platform<\/a> and will likely feature heavy integration with the Google Gemini chatbot.<\/p>\n

It has been reported that these glasses will not feature a display, but that’s likely coming with another pair in 2027. The second release is being developed under the codename “Haean” and will reportedly include a micro-LED display, allowing for similar functionality to something like the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses<\/a>. These could cost anywhere from $600 to $900.<\/p>\n

We don’t know when the Jinju glasses will launch, but later this year is a safe bet. Samsung has a major Unpacked event scheduled for July<\/a>. We could get some official details at that point, though it’s unlikely the smart glasses will launch alongside stuff like the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and the Galaxy Watch 9.<\/p>\n

It’s far more likely we’ll get a tease at that event, with a launch later in the year. This is what Samsung did with its Galaxy XR virtual reality headset<\/a> last year.<\/p>\n

It’s also been reported that the Jinju glasses will include a 12MP camera, a Snapdragon AR1 chip and directional speakers with bone-conduction tech. These specs are, of course, subject to change before launch. It’s also highly possible the price will tick up beyond the aforementioned range, thanks to global economic uncertainty<\/a> and the rising costs of RAM and storage<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Images and details about Samsung’s upcoming smart glasses have leaked, according to a report by Android Headlines.
