Samsung Galaxy Glasses 'Jinju' Renders Leak: 50g Frame, Snapdragon AR1, and 12MP Sony Cameras

Leaked renders based on a real testing unit have given us the clearest look yet at Samsung's Galaxy Glasses, codenamed Jinju. Published by @OnLeaks and Android Headlines on April 27, the images show a slim, conventional-looking pair of glasses that could easily pass for regular eyewear — a direct challenge to Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses.

Key Specifications

• Weight: Approximately 50 grams — lighter than the Ray-Ban Meta at 49.3g but with dual cameras
• Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon AR1 chipset
• Cameras: Dual 12MP Sony IMX681 lenses near the corner of each lens
• Battery: 155mAh built into the temples
• Display: None — screenless design like Ray-Ban Meta
• Lenses: Photochromic transition lenses that darken in sunlight
• Software: Android XR with Google Gemini AI integration

Three Models Planned

Samsung reportedly has three smart glasses in development: Jinju (screenless, launching late 2026), a second unnamed model, and Haean (with micro-LED display, expected 2027). Jinju will launch first as the entry-level option focused on audio, cameras, and AI — directly competing with Ray-Ban Meta at $379 on Amazon.

What This Means for Buyers

At an expected price of $379–$499, the Galaxy Glasses Jinju will sit right alongside Meta's pricing. The Android XR platform and Gemini AI could give Samsung an edge in assistant capabilities, while the Snapdragon AR1 chip promises strong on-device processing. If you're currently considering smart glasses, the Ray-Ban Meta remains the best option available today. For AR display glasses, check the XREAL Air 2 Pro at $499.
