Technical Specifications

• Chips: Qualcomm AR1 Gen 1 for main processing and NXP for additional computation.
• Camera: 12-megapixel Sony CMOS sensor for photos, videos, code scanning and gesture recognition.
• Battery: 155 mAh battery providing moderate battery life.
• Weight: Lightweight – only 50 grams.

Software: bet on Google Gemini

The key advantage of the new glasses will be Google’s AI integration. Samsung is going to use Google’s Gemini platform instead of a similar system from Meta*.

• Gemini AI has already been proven to work in Google products like Gmail and Docs. Glasses will be able to utilize this power for a multitude of tasks, including access to custom AI agents.
• Android integration will provide a seamless experience with other Samsung devices such as smartphones and tablets.

Market Competition

Samsung will face competition not only from Meta*, but also from Chinese manufacturers such as Xiaomi, which is developing its own smart glasses.
