Samsung's first Android XR glasses with a color display may launch in late 2027, according to reports. The Elec shared that Samsung requested new microdisplays for future smart glasses, specifying that the display will be color. The company is still weighing the performance and price aspects, as Samsung Display strives to produce ultra-small panels, around 0.2-inches or less.
The design of the glasses is still under consideration with both monocular and binocular options being explored. While prototypes have featured a monocular design, a binocular design could allow for 3D content display. Initial prototypes from both Google and Samsung have shown a monocular design, but a binocular design could offer 3D content advantages.
The first Android XR glasses are expected to have a form factor similar to Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses, featuring a camera and open-ear headphones. Designs from Warby Parker and Gentle Monster have also been shown, but the exact launch timeline remains uncertain.
