Samsung used to be the first one to announce new form factors. Now it just copies what everyone else is doing. With no Apple smart glasses to clone yet, the company is turning its photocopier to Meta\u2019s Ray-Ban AI glasses.\u00a0A new leak of Samsung\u2019s supposed Galaxy Glasses suggests they won\u2019t do anything revolutionary, except maybe not violate your privacy as easily.<\/p>\n

The leak (via\u00a0Android Headlines) is the first time that we\u2019re seeing alleged images of the Samsung smart glasses. Samsung is reportedly readying two pairs. The first one, codenamed Jinju (translates as \u201cpearl\u201d in Korean), works similarly to a pair of Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses. There are two 12-megapixel cameras near the corner of each lens for taking photos or videos. They also include speakers and a mic, built for chatting up Google\u2019s Gemini AI. Android Authority reported last week that they found references to these smart glasses in One UI 9 source code, adding more credibility to the leak.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s missing from this news are mentions of touchpad controls on the smart glasses\u2019 arms or evidence of AI integrations. Still, the product renders suggest we\u2019ll see these smart glasses sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n

Samsung\u2019s second pair of smart glasses is not expected until 2027. Dubbed \u201cHaean\u201d (\u201cseacoast\u201d in English), these smart glasses are said to have a micro LED display. The comparable Meta Ray-Ban Display have a single display in the right lens.<\/p>\n

Samsung is not alone making an Android-centric pair of smart glasses. Google is co-developing the Project Aura smart glasses with Xreal. The search giant also has other Android XR glasses likely coming this year. You likely won\u2019t have to wait long to hear more about the benefits of Gemini AI on the go. Google\u2019s annual I\/O developer conference starts on May 19.<\/p>\n

Google has smart glasses coming, too. This prototype smart glasses with a built-in display in the right lens was reportedly made by Samsung. \u00a9 Raymond Wong \/ Gizmodo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The company isn\u2019t just copying Meta\u2019s design language; the rollout\u2014with an established eyewear brand\u2014might be similar, too. Both Samsung and Google already announced partnerships with eyewear brands Gentle Monster and Warby Parker. Google is reportedly getting in bed with Gucci for upcoming XR glasses. The high-profile name is something smart glasses from China-based companies like Huawei can\u2019t claim.<\/p>\n

Meta\u2019s new competition for smart glasses\u2014that now even includes Apple\u2014will also inherit privacy concerns. Meta has fueled backlash for its continuing quest to enable facial recognition tech with its latest camera glasses. Whereas Google Glass originally gave us the term \u201cGlasshole,\u201d the \u201cGlasshole 2.0\u201d may be doing more than taking photos of strangers at a bar (as if that wasn\u2019t bad enough). We have yet to see how either company handles the privacy question. As for whether the data you send to Gemini is off limits, that ship has unfortunately already sailed.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
