Samsung Ready To Introduce AR Glasses Prototype At Galaxy Unpacked January 2025
JAKARTA Samsung Electronics will make a big breakthrough at the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked 2025 event, revealing the long-awaited prototype augmented reality (AR) glasses. This step also marks the tech giant's efforts to enter the fast-growing AR market.
According to a Yonhap News Agency report, Samsung is expected to introduce a prototype of these AR glasses through images or videos in early 2025. After years of speculation and patents in circulation, this announcement further strengthens Samsung's position as a serious player in the realm of AR technology.
These Samsung AR glasses are rumored to have light weights, about 50 grams, comparable to Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses. The device is designed for more than just stylized accessories, with features such as movement recognition, facial recognition, and digital payment integration.
Although details of the full specifications have not been disclosed, these glasses are predicted to offer more advanced capabilities than Meta glasses, especially in terms of user interactions. Samsung has been working with Qualcomm and Google since early 2023 to develop this device.

Some of the other features that are rumored include a 155mAh battery and a 12MP camera. However, in contrast to Meta products, Samsung AR glasses are not expected to be equipped with screens, thus allowing for lighter and more compact designs. Functions such as payment, QR code scanning, facial recognition, and movement will be supported by Google Gemini AI assistants.
Samsung has not announced an official price, but it is estimated that the AR glasses will be priced similar to Ray-Ban Meta, which is around Rp. 6.5 million. A more detailed announcement is likely to be made in conjunction with the launch of the Galaxy S25 at the event.
The Samsung AR glasses are scheduled for an official release in the third quarter of 2025, making it one of the main competitors in the increasingly competitive smart glasses market. The device is expected to be a breakthrough in the world of wearable technology, with futuristic designs and features that are practical for everyday life.
