Samsung is venturing into the development of innovative AI-powered wearable devices, including smart earrings, rings, necklaces, and glasses, as part of its strategic expansion into artificial intelligence hardware. The company aims to create products that reduce reliance on direct smartphone interaction. During the Galaxy Unpacked event in New York, Samsung’s mobile division COO, Won-joon Choi, emphasized the future of AI technology as wearable and hands-free, envisioning devices like glasses, earrings, and necklaces that facilitate tasks through AI without manual input. This aligns with a broader industry trend as tech giants shift focus from smartphones to AI-driven devices, with companies like Meta already advancing in smart glasses. Samsung is developing its own smart glasses and exploring diverse wearable formats to cater to different preferences. The company is cautious, learning from previous market failures, and aims to design wearables as smartphone companions. This new wave of AI wearables is set to transform technology interaction, with Samsung positioning itself to stay ahead of competitors like Apple, which has not yet disclosed similar plans.
