Pre-orders open for Intelligent Eyewear with Gemini built in

Google opened pre-orders for Intelligent Eyewear, glasses with Gemini built in that it made with Samsung, Gentle Monster and Warby Parker. They go on sale in stores and online on December 10.

Say "Hey Gemini" or tap the frames to ask about what you're looking at. Google's examples include looking at an event poster to check your Calendar, or adding something you see to a grocery list. Google Maps gives turn-by-turn directions in your ear, and Google Translate handles live speech translation in more than 70 languages. You can also take photos and video, play music, take calls, and catch up on and reply to messages.

Warby Parker has three styles, Alden, Reid and Wren, in optical or sun versions from $395, in Pine, Saddle and Jet Black with prescription options. Gentle Monster has six designs from $449 to $489, with prescription options for most frames. Samsung counts 30 designs across both brands.

The hardware has a 12 MP HDR camera, two open-ear speakers and four microphones. The frames weigh about 41 grams. Battery life is up to nine hours, and the charging case can recharge the glasses up to seven times.

Both collections launch in the U.S., and Gentle Monster's also launches in South Korea. The glasses only work with an 18+ Google account from the U.S. or South Korea. Supported phones are Pixel 7 and newer on the Android 17 September 2026 update or later, Galaxy S, S FE, Z Fold, Flip and Fold Ultra phones on One UI 9.0 or higher, and iPhone 13 Pro and newer. Demos are available at select Gentle Monster, Warby Parker and Google Store locations, and at select Samsung stores from December 10.
