Samsung maybe working on its first smart glasses that follow the Meta Ray-Ban Stories' footsteps. The software stack, however, will rely on Google's Gemini.

It looks like Samsung's much-anticipated smart glasses, developed in collaboration with Google and Qualcomm, won't arrive until late 2025, and they'll be sporting some familiar specs. The latest report comes from the Korean paper Maeil Business Newspaper (via Jukanlosreve) which reported on a paper by a firm called Wellsen XR Research.

There’s no precise word on how much they’ll cost when they launch, but Xiaomi is known for producing more affordable tech than its better-known rivals, so we expect its smart specs to start at less than Meta Ray-Ban’s $299 / £299 / AU$449 starting price.

Ray-Ban Meta Glasses use built-in cameras, microphones, and speakers for the ultimate hands-free experience when taking photos, calling, and more.

The countdown has begun for Rokid Jungle 2024, an event anticipated to be one of the most influential gatherings in the augmented reality (AR) landscape.

With their retro design, practical AI capabilities, and hands-free operation, Ray-Ban Metas are the kind of glasses Q would have given to James Bond. While there are limitations, overall, Ray-Ban Meta glasses are an “I didn’t know I always needed this” gadget that makes many things I do anyway,

Meta Ray-Ban might not be the explosive future being teased by bleeding-edge prototypes like the Orion glasses — Meta's lightweight, experimental pair of true AR glasses that can superimpose the digital world onto the world around you — but they're objectively a good start.

Leaks suggest that Samsung is bringing a new chapter in wearables with its XR glasses, blending AI tech and a minimalist design approach.

A new report suggests that Samsung's AI-powered XR smart glasses will launch by the third quarter of next year. The smart glasses will feature a 155mAh battery, a 12MP camera, and Qualcomm's AR1 chipset,
