First Android XR ‘Intelligent Eyewear’ glasses go on pre-order next week

Warby Parker has announced that the first Android XR audio glasses will be available for pre-order on November 12. These glasses, officially called "Intelligent Eyewear," will start accepting pre-orders one week from today. Warby Parker revealed this news during its earnings call, stating that they are eager to deliver customer orders during the holiday season.

The glasses, powered by Samsung hardware and Qualcomm chips, feature Android XR technology. Designed in collaboration with Gentle Monster, the audio-only glasses lack an in-lens display and come with a camera. They can be controlled through voice commands and a side touchpad. Although two variants have been released by each partner, more designs are expected.

This pre-order announcement mirrors Google's approach, which released a release date before the full unveiling a week later. For more updates, viewers can check 9to5Google on YouTube.
