- At the Unpacked event, Samsung showcased two new designs for its upcoming smart glasses with Gemini.
- These glasses are made in partnership with Google and eyewear brands Warby Parker and Gentle Monster.
- These are non-display versions with cameras for Gemini and would likely offer nine hours of battery life under heavy usage.
- While they’re being showcased today, these smart glasses won’t launch until fall this year.
Google has been teasing its entry into the smart-glasses category with template designs and a dedicated software experience under the banner of Android XR. However, its previous troubles with smart glasses, primarily the Google Glass, may not set a good precedent for new ones. Admitting its shortcomings as a hardware company, Google is limiting itself to the software, especially the Gemini-powered AI bits, while letting other companies handle the hardware. And its choice of hardware partner is Samsung, which is now showcasing its upcoming pair of AI smart glasses.
In addition to the new devices it unveiled at Unpacked today, Samsung is also shedding light on the upcoming pairs of “Intelligent Eyewear.” At the event, it revealed two new designs for smart glasses with a variety of colors, both for the frame and the lenses.
