Samsung’s XR plans may be getting a bit more crowded.
Fresh code discoveries in One UI 9 suggest Samsung could be working on a third pair of XR or smart glasses, on top of the two devices that were already expected to show up this year. For anyone tracking where wearable tech is heading next, that is a pretty interesting sign, especially with Samsung clearly pushing beyond its bigger Galaxy XR headset into lighter, more everyday glasses-style hardware.
The newly resurfaced device carries the codename Haean. If that name sounds familiar, it is because this is not the first time it has appeared in leaks. Haean was previously rumoured to launch in 2025 alongside Samsung’s Galaxy XR headset, but that never happened. Now, it has shown up again in One UI 9’s code, which hints that Samsung may still have plans for it after all.
Based on the same findings, Samsung’s upcoming smart glasses are also expected to play nicely with the company’s device ecosystem. The code points to support for the Samsung Find app, which would let users locate the glasses on a map if they are lost or left behind. Earlier discoveries also suggested the glasses could appear alongside other Bluetooth devices during setup, which should make pairing a lot less leceh for regular users.
So far, two other smart glasses models were already known: SM-O200P and SM-O200J, tied to the codename Jinju. The newly spotted Haean device appears with the model number SM-O500. That matters because the naming looks much closer to Samsung’s smart glasses lineup than to its full XR headset, which reportedly uses the model number SM-I610. In other words, Haean is probably another glasses-style wearable, not a bulkier over-the-head immersive headset.
There is still some uncertainty here. One possibility is that SM-O200P and SM-O200J are just regional or slightly different versions of the same product, while SM-O500 is a genuinely separate device. That could explain why earlier rumours talked about two smart glasses launches instead of three. But for now, that is still only an assumption, not something confirmed.
What does seem more likely is that all of these upcoming devices will use a specialised version of Google’s Android XR platform. That is a big deal because Samsung is not just experimenting with random wearables here. It looks like the company is building a proper XR family, with multiple form factors for different use cases.
For Malaysia and the wider SEA market, this is worth watching even if launch dates and pricing are still unknown. Lightweight smart glasses make more sense here than expensive, niche headsets if Samsung wants mainstream traction. People in this region are already used to living inside Samsung’s ecosystem, from Galaxy phones to watches to earbuds, so adding glasses that are easy to pair and easy to track if hilang could be a practical next step. If Samsung gets the pricing right, this kind of device could appeal to commuters, creators, and early adopters who want something more wearable than a full headset.
Of course, the big missing pieces are still the same ones: what these glasses actually do, how different the three models are, and whether Samsung plans to launch them widely in markets like Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and the Philippines.
Still, the fact that Haean has shown up again in One UI 9 code suggests this project is not dead. If Samsung really is preparing a broader smart glasses push in 2026, SEA users may end up being part of the audience the company wants to win over.
