Samsung smart glasses: What to expect
According to the report citing SamMobile, the Galaxy Glasses could pack a 245mAh battery, placing it close to the 248mAh unit used in Meta’s Ray-Ban smart glasses. The capacity reportedly suggests the presence of a display, especially since non-display smart glasses typically use smaller batteries of around 150mAh.
Samsung had previously confirmed that its AI-powered glasses will be based on Google’s Android XR platform, similar to Samsung’s Galaxy XR headset. Additionally, the glasses will run Qualcomm chips.
Samsung executive Jay Kim had earlier confirmed several features of the upcoming glasses in an interview with CNBC:
Eye-level camera placement: According to the previous report, Kim confirmed that Samsung’s smart glasses may feature a camera positioned at eye level. This would allow users to capture photos and videos from their natural point of view, similar to how they see things.
AI that understands what you see: Kim reportedly said the AI will be able to understand “where you’re looking at.” This means the system could analyse objects or scenes in front of the user and provide relevant information in real time. Samsung has already confirmed that the glasses will use Gemini AI for such tasks.

However, Samsung has not confirmed if its smart glasses will feature a built-in display. When asked about it, Kim reportedly said users could rely on devices like smartphones or smartwatches if a screen is required. This suggests that Samsung may be working on multiple versions of the glasses, including options with and without a display.
According to the previous report, the company is aiming to launch its first smart glasses in 2026, marking Samsung’s entry into the growing AI wearables market. Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon has also suggested a similar timeline for the device, indicating that development is already underway.
