Samsung Develops 0.2-Inch AI Smart Glasses Display, Targeting 2027 Launch

3 articles · Updated · Android Central · Sep 10

Summary

  • Samsung is reportedly building AI smart glasses with an in-lens color display, with Samsung Display developing microdisplays roughly 0.2 inches or smaller for the lenses.
  • The glasses are said to show text, notifications, icons and navigation arrows, but Samsung still faces a key technical hurdle in widening field of view enough to make that information usable.
  • A launch is reportedly being eyed for the second half of 2027 or early 2028, suggesting a more ambitious follow-up to Samsung's first smart-glasses push.
  • Samsung's current Intelligent Eyewear, due later this fall with Google, is centered on voice, Gemini assistance, a camera and a microphone rather than a full color display.
