Equipped with a camera, microphone, and speakers, the glasses will be used by pairing them with <strong>Galaxy phones<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Samsung is expected to introduce its first <strong>mixed reality headset<\/strong> later this year, it plans to launch its first <strong>smart glasses<\/strong> next year, in 2026. According to information from South Korean outlet <strong>SEDaily<\/strong>, Samsung&#8217;s glasses will not include a display, similar to Meta&#8217;s AI-powered smart glasses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Galaxy smart glasses are coming<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"382\" src=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/indir-1-18.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26368\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/indir-1-18.webp 720w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/indir-1-18-300x159.webp 300w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/indir-1-18-150x80.webp 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Samsung&#8217;s glasses will feature a <strong>camera<\/strong>, <strong>microphone<\/strong>, and <strong>speakers<\/strong>. Users will be able to take photos and videos, get answers to their questions via an <strong>AI-powered assistant<\/strong>, and pair the device with <strong>Galaxy phones<\/strong>. Samsung&#8217;s goal is to create a product ecosystem independent of its partnership with Google to seize leadership in the <strong>smart glasses segment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As is known, with the development of <strong>AI technologies<\/strong>, smart glasses have become much more functional. <strong>AR (augmented reality) displays<\/strong> are expected to be included in these devices in the future. Therefore, the future looks quite promising for these devices. While Samsung&#8217;s first-generation glasses will not have a screen, <strong>Meta&#8217;s new-generation smart glasses, Orion<\/strong>, stand out with their AR display. Although the details have not yet been clarified, Samsung&#8217;s glasses may work with their own software without being tied to Android. This suggests that the company is willing to compete with Google in the future. Just as <strong>Galaxy phones<\/strong> and <strong>smartwatches<\/strong> compete with Google&#8217;s <strong>Pixel devices<\/strong>, a similar strategy may be pursued in the smart glasses segment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, the leader in the smart glasses segment is <strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/tag\/meta-news-and-content\/\" data-type=\"post_tag\" data-id=\"74\">Meta<\/a><\/em><\/strong>, which collaborates with <strong>Oakley<\/strong> and <strong>Ray-Ban<\/strong>, and their devices start at $299. <strong>Apple&#8217;s<\/strong> first <strong>smart glasses<\/strong> are also expected to be released in 2026 and are predicted to offer a display-less design like Samsung.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Might Also Like;<\/h3>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__list wp-block-latest-posts\"><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is claimed that Samsung will introduce its first smart glasses without a display in 2026.
