The Galaxy Ring smart ring doesn’t seem to be the only new smart wearable device Samsung has up its sleeve.
WccfTech reports that the company is also working on a pair of smart glasses, which will supposedly launch in the third quarter of 2025. We may get our first look at them during the Galaxy S25 launch event in January, “likely in the form of videos or images” according to leaker Jukanlosereve.
Chinese research firm Wellsen XR Research suggests Samsung’s smart glasses will have similar performance to the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, with both using Qualcomm’s AR1 chip. In addition, both glasses have a built-in 12-megapixel camera, as well as batteries of about 155 mAh.
However, Samsung’s glasses will use the AI model Gemini to power its smart features, as company is working with Google to customise the AI for the glasses.

As you can see above, the rumour suggests Samsung will initially make half a million units. However, there’s no mention of how much they might cost – will it be similar to the £299/$299 starting price of the Ray-Ban Meta glasses? Only time will tell.
