Meta just announced an AI Tamagotchi — this is Muse Charm

Mark Zuckerberg closed out Meta Connect 2026 with one more thing, the Muse Charm, which puts the ever-popular personalized AI assistant in the palm of your hand.

Meta just announced an AI Tamagotchi — this is Muse Charm

Meta unveiled a new AI wearable device called Muse Charm at the conclusion of the Meta Connect 26 keynote. This compact silver square features a display on the front and thicker black bezels. A wrist strap dangles from the bottom, suggesting easy portability. Unlike typical wearables, Muse Charm is not worn and instead uses a touchscreen interface, potentially an OLED or AMOLED display.

Positioned as a true AI wearable, Muse Charm is distinct from Meta's VR glasses and Ray-Ban Audio, focusing solely on enhancing Muse's capabilities. Although not yet ready for release, Meta hopes to ship the device by the holiday season. This marks a fresh device category for Meta, blending the popular Muse assistant with wearable technology.

The company acknowledges Muse Charm as a potential rival to devices like the Rabbit R1 and Humane AI Pin, though its success remains to be determined.
