Google Android XR smart glasses: What we know so far

Google officially announced its first Android XR smart glasses with Samsung at Google I/O 2026.

The company had already previewed two models: a camera-first version without a display launching this year, and a display-equipped model with no release date yet.

Both devices integrate Gemini, underscoring Google’s push into consumer AI wearables.

The move positions Android XR as a broader platform for future smart-glasses products in a market led by rivals like Meta Ray-Ban glasses.
