Nothing plans to release AI smart glasses next year after CEO Carl Pei changes mind

The glasses would use microphones, speakers and cameras while relying on smartphones and the cloud for AI processing, Bloomberg reported.

  • According to a Bloomberg report, London-based hardware company Nothing plans to release AI-focused smart glasses in the first half of 2027, featuring built-in cameras, microphones, and speakers.
  • CEO and co-founder Carl Pei initially resisted developing smart glasses but has since pivoted to a multi-device strategy, expanding beyond the company's current Android phones and audio gear.
  • Rather than acting as standalone units, these glasses will rely on smartphones and the cloud to handle AI processing, while potentially incorporating Nothing's signature transparent aesthetic.
  • Nothing faces competition from established tech giants like Meta, Google, and Samsung, which have already begun integrating AI-focused features into their own eyewear products.
  • The manufacturer still faces challenges capturing significant market share in the United States, where success will depend on its ability to innovate hardware and software to stand out.
