- A pair of Samsung smart specs are on the way
- They could launch before the end of 2025
- Samsung is also developing a bigger XR headset
We know that Samsung is busy working with Google on an Android XR (extended reality) headset known as Project Moohan, but it seems that some AR (augmented reality) smart specs are also in the pipeline – and could be launching before the end of the year.
A new report from South Korean outlet ET News (via @Jukanlosreve) suggests that these smart glasses are being developed under the codename Haean, and that features and specs are currently being finalized.
One of Samsung’s priorities, according to the report, is on producing a design that fits every face shape and structure. Meanwhile, gesture support is said to be included with the specs, to reduce the number of buttons needed on the device itself.
There aren’t any more details in this particular report, but it does say that the Samsung smart glasses could well be unveiled alongside the Android XR headset – which Samsung has told us much more about so far.

After a few false starts – Google Glass, anyone? – it feels as though there’s now some momentum behind the idea of smart glasses as a product, with the Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses currently leading the way.

These upcoming smart glasses are most likely going to be powered by a Qualcomm chip, and come with an integrated camera. We’ve seen rumors suggesting Samsung is aiming for an affordable price point, which would of course be welcome.
There had been suggestions that the specs would make an appearance alongside the Samsung Galaxy S25 at the Unpacked event in January. That obviously didn’t happen, but it seems we will see them sometime in the next nine months.
