Samsung's Intelligent Eyewear Could Go on Sale in Mid December, Report Says

A new report from South Korea, published on October 31, 2026, says Samsung's Intelligent Eyewear will go on sale in mid December. The report says the glasses will launch first in South Korea and the United States. It updates an earlier South Korean report that pointed to a November launch, which cited a Samsung official. Pricing has not been decided.

What the glasses do

The glasses run Android XR with Gemini. They have no display, but they include a camera, microphones and speakers. Samsung's features include real time translation, voice directions, and photos of documents or meetings that are organized automatically in the Notes app on a paired Galaxy phone.

Launch markets

The first release is planned for South Korea and the United States. Europe, China and Japan are left out of the first wave, because Samsung wants to see how the Korean and US markets respond before it expands.

Context

Samsung's Galaxy XR headset launched in South Korea and the United States in October 2025. It reached the UK in July 2026.
