Exclusive: Samsung Galaxy Glasses Unveiled – Release Date, Price, and Design Leak

Leaked details about Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Glasses have disclosed the potential price, design, and specifications of the smart glasses.

Samsung Galaxy Glasses, the company’s second Android XR product after Samsung Galaxy XR, are revealed in images published by Android Headlines. The glasses, codenamed Jinju, resemble Ray-Ban Meta but are expected to be lighter and slimmer. With Google’s Gemini assistant integrated, they promise enhanced intelligence.

The screen-free Samsung Galaxy Glasses, expected to be named Jinju, are projected to be priced between $379 and $499 upon release in late 2026.

Another set of Samsung smart glasses, under the project name Haean, is slated for a 2027 launch. This premium model is anticipated to include a micro-LED display, potentially resembling the Oppo Air Glass 3, and may be priced between $600 and $900.

Both Samsung glasses will operate on Google’s Android XR platform, with a significant presence expected at the upcoming Google I/O event, where Google may unveil its own smart glasses in collaboration with fashion brands Warby Parker and Gentle Monster.

Likely Specifications of Samsung Galaxy Glasses

Reports suggest that the Samsung Galaxy Glasses will feature a 155mAh battery, a 12Mp Sony IMX681 camera, and will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon AR1 processor. Weighing around 50g, they will deliver audio through directional speakers, with potential bone conduction technology based on patent filings.

Anticipated to be revealed at the next Samsung Unpacked event in July, the initial set of Samsung Galaxy Glasses could be showcased alongside new foldable phones like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 series and Galaxy Z Flip 8.

Historically, Samsung has surprised audiences at Unpacked events, as seen with the Galaxy S25 Edge and Galaxy XR headset announcements in January 2025.

Apple Lagging Behind

Samsung and Google could potentially outpace Apple in the augmented reality realm, as per Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. He suggests that Apple’s lightweight glasses, possibly iPhone successors, may not launch until between 2028 and 2030.

This delay could give Samsung a substantial head start, with their late 2026 plans potentially providing a two-year advantage.
