Samsung Smart Glasses Launch Date Revealed!
6 Nov
Summary
- Preorders for Samsung's smart glasses begin November 12.
- The intelligent eyewear will officially go on sale in December.
- Smart glasses face growing public and regulatory backlash.
Samsung's highly anticipated smart glasses are nearing their release, with preorders set to open on November 12, 2026. Design partner Warby Parker announced that all styles and lens options will be revealed on this date. Sales are officially slated to begin in December 2026.
This launch arrives at a complex time for smart glasses. Despite a general increase in their popularity, public sentiment has turned negative due to misuse incidents and celebrity criticism. This has prompted regulatory actions, including potential bans in Norway and existing restrictions in Hamburg, Germany.
While Samsung and Google's new eyewear may avoid some direct criticism aimed at Meta, they could still be impacted by the broader smart glasses backlash. U.S. senators have also raised privacy concerns with Meta regarding its smart devices, indicating a trend of increased oversight in the wearable technology sector.
