Android XR

Samsung intelligent eyewear (Android XR audio glasses) — the Samsung/Google reference product

• 2 designs publicly shown, and Samsung states the collaboration offers "a range of frame styles, colors and lens options" without disclosing counts.
• There is no price at all — not even a "TBA at launch" placeholder; it is simply absent from both primary releases as of 2026-07-30, and the ~$379–$499 figures in circulation are secondary reporting with no vendor corroboration.
• There is no product name. "Intelligent eyewear" is a category noun used by all four companies, and no model designation or SKU exists.
• The "this fall in select markets" commitment comes from the 20 May 2026 I/O release, not the 22 July Unpacked release, which states no timing whatsoever.
• No market has been named — "select markets" is unqualified in every primary source.
• A key input path needs an extra accessory: Samsung's own footnote states "Gesture interactions are only provided through Watch9", so gesture control requires a Galaxy Watch9 alongside the glasses and the phone.
• Several headline features are conditioned: notes capture "may require compatible Samsung services and devices"; translation and navigation "may vary by language, region, app, service provider and network environment"; live visual sharing "may vary by app, service, market and applicable laws".
• Camera resolution is undisclosed by Samsung; the 12 MP figure in circulation is unverified reporting.
• No third-party app-distribution channel has been published for this device class — Google Play covers XR headsets and wired XR glasses only.
• The product sells under two partner brands rather than as a Samsung-branded SKU, so "the price of the Samsung glasses" is likely to resolve to two different prices at two different retailers (see the Gentle Monster and Warby Parker entries).
• Spec disclosure is partial: no weight, no IP rating, no storage, and no confirmation of on-device compute available to third parties.

Gentle Monster Intelligent Eyewear

• 2 designs revealed so far, with the vendor saying the debut collection "will include a wider range of designs when it launches this fall" and not disclosing a total.
• The vendor page carries no price and no preorder, reservation or deposit — only an email signup ("Be the first to discover…").
• The retail channel is explicitly narrow: the vendor FAQ says it "will be available through Gentle Monster flagship stores and the official online store", so not through Samsung and not through general electronics retail.
• "Select markets" is again unnamed, and Gentle Monster runs separate regional storefronts (US/KR/JP/SG/TW/AU/CA/EU) whose availability is likely to differ.
• The number of launch designs is open by the vendor's own wording — the two shown are a preview, not the collection.
• Gentle Monster sells prescription lenses across its regular lines, but the Intelligent Eyewear page makes no prescription claim.
• This appears as a separate entry from the Samsung reference product because retail channel, market list, design count and eventual price belong to the brand, not to Samsung; the underlying hardware is the same.

Warby Parker Intelligent Eyewear

• 2 frames shown to date, in the vendor's words "we previewed our second frame in the collection", with launch collection size undisclosed.
• There is no price, preorder, reservation or waitlist deposit — only an email signup ("Be the first to know").
• The $200–$400 range attributed to Warby Parker in press coverage is analyst and reporting inference; the vendor publishes nothing.
• Warby Parker claims video capture ("photos and videos") while Samsung's release describes capture and "live visual sharing", so video is vendor-claimed but not spec'd.
• The "coming this fall" timing arrives with no market list, and Warby Parker's own retail footprint is US and Canada, narrower than "select markets" may imply globally.
• Prescription support is implied by positioning rather than stated as a confirmed SKU option with pricing.
• This appears separately from the Samsung reference product because retail channel, region, frame count and eventual price are Warby Parker's; the hardware underneath is the same Samsung device.

XREAL Project Aura / XREAL AURA (Android XR wired XR glasses)

• 2 memory/storage configurations (12 GB/256 GB, 16 GB/512 GB) and 2 IPD fit sizes (M 60–66 mm, L 66–72 mm), with insertable prescription lenses supported.
• A ceiling is not a price: "no more than US$1,500 before tax" is a pre-tax maximum, XREAL says the base model price is announced closer to launch, and no figure exists for the 16 GB/512 GB configuration at all.
• Both reservation tiers are deposits toward an unannounced final price rather than purchases, so the buyer commits money without knowing the amount.
• The Founder Priority Pass ($299) shows SOLD OUT — "All 2,000 Founder Passes have been reserved in 36 hours", with the counter reading 0 of 2,000. The cheaper $99 Launch Credit remains open and is marked LIMITED TIME.
• The $99 → $199 conversion is promotional rather than a discount off a known price, and its expiry is unstated beyond "LIMITED TIME".
• Reservation position affects delivery, not entitlement: "EARLIER RESERVATIONS RECEIVE EARLIER ACCESS" / "Order to secure an early shipping position."
• Refund terms for the deposits are not restated in the reservation block on the product page, so verify them at checkout rather than assuming refundability.
• Availability is region-locked to 30 listed countries; everywhere else is notify-me only, and South Korea and Australia are included while much of the world is not.
• Enterprise and bulk pricing is quote-only via business@xreal.com, with no published volume price.
• The device class changes what the SDK gives you: this is the wired XR glasses class, a two-piece glasses-plus-tethered-puck system, not the lightweight all-day eyewear class. Some landscape framings scope it out of "smart glasses" entirely, but it is unambiguously Android XR and it is the class where Play distribution already works.
• Prices are published in US dollars only, with no EUR, GBP, JPY or KRW figure despite the launch regions.

Android XR Developer Catalyst Program development kit (audio glasses / display glasses / wired XR glasses)

• 3 kit types are offered: wired XR glasses, audio glasses and display glasses.
• The kits are not purchasable at any price — the program is application-only and the 2026 application window is closed, so a developer arriving today has no hardware path until a future cycle.
• Selection is discretionary, decided by a multi-stage review from a cross-functional Google team weighing vertical alignment, developer readiness and articulated funding need.
• Shipping is region-locked to the US, Canada, Japan, the UK and the EU, so developers elsewhere are excluded even if selected.
• Grant funding is milestone-gated on signed agreements, technical design and Google Play publishing, and the amounts are unpublished.
• The Play-publishing milestone sits oddly against Google's own statement that glasses-class distribution is not open; read that milestone as applying to the supported XR classes.
• Kit terms, loan-versus-keep status and return obligations are not published.

Samsung display glasses (reported codename 'Haean')

• No configurations have been published, because the product has not been announced.
• Samsung has never publicly announced this product, named it or confirmed a year; both "Haean" and 2027 are reporting rather than vendor statements.
• Google's I/O 2026 statement that display glasses "follow" the audio glasses is the only on-the-record commitment, and it carries no date, no maker attribution and no price.
• No specs, no design-partner attribution and no market list have been published.
• Whether this is a distinct SKU or a later revision of the same eyewear line is unconfirmed.

Gucci / Kering Eyewear Android XR smart glasses

• No configurations have been published, because no product page or spec sheet exists.
• Everything in this entry rests on reporting of executive remarks rather than vendor documentation — there is no Kering or Gucci product page, press release or spec sheet.
• The device class is unknown: nobody has stated whether it is audio glasses or display glasses.
• Google listed Kering Eyewear as a partner as far back as I/O 2025, so the partnership predates any product commitment by more than a year with no shipped device.
• Luxury positioning means the eventual price bears no relationship to the rest of this catalogue, and any figure quoted today is inference.
