What happened

Nothing seems ready to expand beyond aesthetically niche phones into AI smart glasses. The company initially rejected the idea, but has since opened up to developing more devices as companies like Google and Samsung plan glasses under the Android XR umbrella.

Why it matters

According to a report from Bloomberg that cites unnamed industry sources, Nothing has plans to release AI smart glasses in 2027. Prior to that launch window in the first half of next year, the company is still expected to stay on target for more familiar devices, like new earbuds and phones.

What to watch next

The report indicates that Nothing’s AI glasses would house a microphone, speakers, and cameras. There’s nothing stating that the glasses would offer a display. As new as a first-generation device would be for the smartphone manufacturer, this is completely understandable.
