GoKawiilTL;DR Renders of Samsung’s “Jinju” smart glasses show a display-less design similar to Meta Ray-Ban glasses.
The glasses will likely run on Android XR with Gemini AI, and could feature a Snapdragon AR1 chip, a 12MP camera, and weigh approximately 50g.
Samsung may unveil the glasses at its July Unpacked event alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide.
Samsung has as many as three Android XR-based smart glasses in the pipeline.
