Samsung has scheduled July 22 Unpacked in London to unveil foldables like the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Z Flip 8, plus a new Galaxy Watch lineup and possibly Galaxy Glasses. Ahead of the show, Samsung is offering a $30 preorder credit and a chance to win one of ten $500 Samsung.com gift cards, with live coverage planned from Samsung and ZDNET.
Samsung reportedly plans to launch its first-gen Galaxy Glasses (codenamed Jinju) in July 2026 for about $400. The AI-powered smart glasses prioritize practical, hands-free use over AR visuals, featuring voice control, real-time translation, environmental awareness, built-in audio, a 12MP Sony camera, and navigation, all in a ≈50 g frame powered by Android XR and Gemini AI with a 155 mAh battery. The design is in collaboration with Warby Parker and Gentle Monster, and a higher-end micro-LED display model is teased for 2027, with the launch expected alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 8 lineup.
Leaked images suggest Samsung’s first Galaxy Glasses will be a display-free AR glasses set, code-named Jinju, with a Snapdragon AR1 processor, a 12‑MP camera, a 155 mAh battery and bone-conduction speakers, priced about $379–$499 and no built-in display. Samsung reportedly plans a premium micro‑LED model, code-named Haean, with a display coming in 2027 for $600–$900, aimed at competing with Meta’s Ray‑Ban Display glasses. The launch could occur at Google I/O or Samsung’s Unpacked events, and Samsung is tying its glasses into Android XR partnerships with Google, Warby Parker, Gentle Monster, and Gucci.
Samsung’s first smart glasses, reportedly named Galaxy Glasses, have surfaced in firmware references as an icon in One UI 8.5 and a test One UI 9 build, hinting at a launch in the second half of 2026; details are scarce, but the design appears to be a simple glasses outline and could feature AR-style functionality, with Samsung possibly unveiling them at a future Unpacked event.
Samsung reportedly reveals battery capacities for its first smart glasses (245mAh EB-BO200CAY) and Galaxy Watch 9 (44mm, 435mAh EB-BL355BAY), with an eye-level camera, potential 12MP sensor, microphones, speakers, and Android XR with Gemini AI for the glasses. The Watch 9 may use Snapdragon Wear Elite or an updated Exynos W1000 and will come in Wi‑Fi and LTE variants, with multiple color/style options and collaboration with Gentle Monster and Warby Parker as Samsung gears up for several launches in the coming months.
Samsung has unveiled the Galaxy Glasses, AI-powered smart glasses with a camera, microphones, and speakers that rely on a connected phone for heavy AI processing via Qualcomm chips and Google’s Android XR, with no built-in display and a potential Display AI Glasses follow-up in 2027; the launch aims to challenge Meta, Google, and Apple in the crowded AR wearables space, while raising privacy and security considerations.
