Samsung Smart Glasses Leak Points to November U.S. Launch

Published 14 October 2026

Samsung’s first smart glasses are expected to reach the U.S. in November, according to leaked product details that describe lightweight frames with a camera, microphones and Google’s Gemini AI assistant. The company has not confirmed the specifications, price or exact sales date. The reported designs were developed with eyewear brands Gentle Monster and Warby Parker. The leak lists six frame shapes and 16 versions from Gentle Monster, and three shapes with 10 versions from Warby Parker. The glasses are expected to be sold through the brands’ channels and Samsung stores in the U.S.; some reports also describe availability in South Korea. The leaked specifications put the glasses at about 41 grams with standard lenses, with prescription lenses adding weight. The figure has not been confirmed by Samsung. The report describes a Snapdragon AR1 Gen 1 processor, 2GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, alongside a 12-megapixel camera capable of recording 3K video at 30 frames per second. The glasses reportedly have two speakers near the ears and four microphones, with no visual display. The leak says battery life could reach up to nine hours, or up to 72 hours with the charging case.
