Samsung's first smart glasses leaked — codename Jinju
TL;DR
Images and details about Samsung's upcoming smart glasses have leaked, according to Android Headlines. The glasses are reportedly being developed under the codename 'Jinju' and could cost anywhere from $380 to $500. They are Samsung's first smart glasses and look to offer a similar feature set to Meta Ray-Bans and the forthcoming Google Gemini glasses. Specs will run on the Android XR wearables platform with heavy Gemini integration. The first model has no display, but a Micro-LED version codenamed 'Haean' is expected in 2027.
Nauti's Take
Nauti sees real market pressure in the leak: Samsung is stepping into the ring with Meta Ray-Bans and Google Gemini Glasses, finally diversifying the wearables space. Tight Gemini integration cleverly sidesteps Samsung's weakest spot — building its own AI.
The skeptical take: no display in version one. Paying $380 to $500 for audio plus camera leaves you with cheaper alternatives.
Early adopters cover the premium tax, and the real display upgrade only ships in 2027 with the Haean model.
