Overview

  • Multiple outlets citing Seoul Economic Daily and unnamed industry insiders report two distinct Samsung eyewear projects now slated for late 2026.
  • The display-free glasses are said to pack a camera, microphones and speakers to capture images and video, respond to voice-activated AI queries and sync with Galaxy phones.
  • A separate high-end model, internally codenamed Haean, would feature micro-LED or microOLED displays running Android XR with Google’s software support for augmented-reality experiences.
  • Early launch expectations for the screenless glasses slipped from 2025 to the end of 2026 amid technical trade-offs in battery endurance, weight and display integration.
  • All specifications and timelines remain speculative until Samsung provides official confirmation of product names, features and release dates.
