Samsung is tackling extended reality (XR) from two distinct fronts. The company recently launched its powerful, bulkier Galaxy XR headset . Now, the focus is shifting to a wearable designed for comfortable, everyday use on the street. Previous leaks hinted at a set of true smart glasses , and the latest details confirm Samsung’s plans to launch this discrete alternative, aimed squarely at popular models like the Meta Ray-Bans .
This new device has the codename SM-O200P. Its goal is more subtle integration rather than full immersion.
Latest Samsung Galaxy Smart Glasses leak pinpoints key features
As reported by GalaxyClub , these “Galaxy Smart Glasses” feature transition lenses that automatically darken outdoors and clear indoors. The design packs an integrated camera and connects to a user’s phone via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Notably, the glasses will not feature their own mobile data connection. This confirms their role as a powerful, phone-dependent accessory. Analysts note that because the glasses rely on a standard Bluetooth connection, users should expect a typical room-to-room range. In other words, your phone must remain relatively close by for consistent functionality.
These specifications suggest the glasses will prioritize utility and audio-visual capture over demanding augmented reality projection. A built-in camera allows for hands-free photo and video capture. Furthermore, the reliance on the phone connection positions the glasses perfectly for delivering real-time AI assistance. The wearable could boast deep integration with tools like Gemini.
Two very different lineups
Samsung highlights this product’s distinct identity by assigning it the SM-O model series. This clearly differentiates it from the larger SM-I series Galaxy XR headset. Development includes a version specifically being prepared for the US market, suggesting a focused initial rollout for the launch. Although a specific date is unconfirmed, the development pace points toward a debut around 2026, possibly under the previously registered trademark “Galaxy Glasses.”
