Overview
- Industry reports say Samsung plans to launch AI-powered, display-free smart glasses codenamed “Haean” by the end of 2026.
- The glasses are said to include cameras, microphones and speakers supporting real-time voice assistance, video capture and audio interactions without a built-in display.
- Samsung is also working with Google on a display-equipped AR headset that will feature micro-LED panels to deliver richer visuals for immersive experiences.
- Both wearables are expected to integrate Google’s Android XR platform and Gemini AI for hands-free assistance and seamless smartphone connectivity.
- The launch timetable has shifted from late-2025 to late-2026 due to development delays as Samsung positions itself against Apple and Meta in entry-level and premium smart-glasses markets.
