We first saw these glasses at Google I/O 2026 in May, and there will be at least four designs, according to CNET, with different frame styles. Google has been teasing its smart glasses collaboration with Samsung for months, and previously said the first pair of smart glasses would be released in 2026.

According to CNET, these glasses are display-free but have a camera, microphone, and speakers. It supports Gemini AI and can connect with Android phones and Google Wear OS watches. The glasses will run both Google Gemini and Samsung Bixby AI.
Samsung's COO of mobile experiences, Won-Joon Choi, told CNET that the glasses can run for 9 hours on a single charge, while the case can charge them an additional 7 times.
The glasses will not have a built-in display, but will have built-in cameras for content capture and microphones to help power AI features. During Samsung Galaxy Unpacked, the glasses presentation demoed different uses, such as asking the device to summarize meeting notes or tell you the next step in a recipe. You can also use the glasses' POV in Google Meet meetings.
Actions with the glasses "flow" into using other Samsung devices — for instance, double-pinching to answer calls.
The full collection from Gentle Monster and Warby Parker is coming this fall, the company announced on Wednesday.
