Samsung is expanding its wearable ecosystem beyond smartwatches and its debut fitness ring—exploring innovative form factors like smart glasses, earrings, and necklaces, as reported by TechCrunch citing CNN.
Won-joon Choi, COO of Samsung’s Mobile Experience division, told CNN: “We believe it should be wearable, something that you shouldn’t carry…glass, earrings, watches, rings, and sometime a necklace.”
Building on Smart Rings & AR Glasses
Only last year, Samsung launched its first fitness-focused smart ring—and is collaborating with Google on AR glasses, with rumors pointing to advanced microdisplays for its “Haean” smart glasses expected in late 2025.
Why It Matters
- Seamless Communication: Samsung envisions wearables you never have to carry—always on you, always ready.
- Fashion meets tech: Blending smart features into everyday jewelry reduces friction and increases adoption.
- Strategic expansion: This diversification positions Samsung ahead of rivals in wearable variety.
Where to from here?
Samsung hasn’t revealed launch dates or specs for earrings or necklaces, but earlier smart jewelry concepts—like modular fitness trackers that snap into rings, bracelets, pendants, and cufflinks—hint at a future where wearables are indistinguishable from accessories.
Meanwhile, its upcoming Haean smart glasses and Project Moohan XR headset—running Android XR OS with embedded AI and camera functionality—are set to debut by year-end, as reported by ETNews.
Samsung’s pivot into smart jewelry signals a commitment to ultra-convenient tech—blending connectivity and style. While timelines remain uncertain, fashion-forward wearables could be Samsung’s next frontier.
