Featured Product
Samsung Galaxy XR
Samsung and Google's mixed reality headset — Android XR platform, Galaxy AI integration, and a more accessible price than Vision Pro.
Starting At
$1599.99
Samsung has officially entered the smart glasses race. At Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Jay Kim, EVP of Samsung's mobile business, revealed the first concrete details about Samsung Galaxy Glasses — the company's answer to Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses.
Key Specs Revealed
- Camera at eye level — captures exactly what the wearer sees
- Android XR platform — powered by Google's new wearable OS
- Qualcomm chipset — dedicated wearable processor
- 245mAh battery — comparable to Ray-Ban Meta's 248mAh
- Phone-powered AI — your Galaxy phone does the heavy lifting
Fashion Partnerships
Samsung confirmed collaborations with Gentle Monster and Warby Parker for different design styles. This means Galaxy Glasses could come in fashion-forward frames, not just tech-forward ones — a direct challenge to Ray-Ban Meta's style advantage.
How It Works
The glasses feed what you see through the camera to your Galaxy phone, which processes the image using AI and sends back information. Samsung describes the phone as "the brain" and the glasses as "your eyes and ears."
