- Google is reportedly building a 'Hey Gemini' hotword for Android XR glasses
Google is reportedly working on a "Hey Gemini" hotword for Android XR glasses, which would let wearers summon Gemini by voice. The feature could also let Gemini automatically turn on the camera to answer questions about what the wearer is looking at, and Google will likely let users disable that automatic camera activation. The report frames this as part of Google's shift away from Google Assistant toward Gemini, though the features have not been officially confirmed.

Leaker Roland Quandt said on Bluesky that Nothing is preparing two very different smart glasses: a camera-free pair with audio playback, calls, access to the phone's voice assistant and photochromic lenses, and a more advanced pair that adds a camera plus ChatGPT, translation and other unspecified features. 9to5Google and other outlets note the camera model resembles the Ray-Ban Meta formula, and that Nothing has been building ChatGPT integration into its earbuds and phones rather than adopting Gemini. Reports say the glasses are expected around 2027, with AI processing handled by the phone and cloud and no AR display.
Android Authority · 🔥 0 - Google Play adds Ask Play app comparison and in-Gemini install links
Google announced several Play Store discovery updates: Ask Play results now include a compare option that evaluates suggested apps across details such as monetization model and connectivity, rolling out starting today. A feature called "Play in Gemini" will surface app suggestions inside Gemini conversations, with rich Play Store links for direct installs and deep links into in-app content coming soon. Google did not give a release date for Play in Gemini, saying only that it will reach all Gemini users soon. The company is also expanding Sports Topic Pages to soccer leagues including MLS, the Premier League, the Champions League, La Liga and Liga MX starting October 14, and making the Play Store adapt to car screens, a 3D space on Android XR, and large-screen apps on Googlebooks.

SammyGuru published the full frame lineup and core specs of Samsung's first AI smart glasses: about 41 grams with standard lenses, a Snapdragon AR1 Gen1 chip, 2GB RAM, 64GB storage, a 12MP camera with 30fps 3K video, four microphones and two open-ear speakers. The glasses have no display — AI replies are spoken through the speakers — and are rated for up to 9 hours of use, or 72 hours with the charging case, with IPX4 water resistance (the case has none). AIbase says the product may be called Galaxy Glasses, runs Android XR and deeply integrates Google Gemini. Frames are made with Gentle Monster (six shapes, 16 versions) and Warby Parker (three styles, 10 versions); a November launch is expected, with Gentle Monster models sold in Korea and the US and Warby Parker models US-only. Pricing and an exact date have not been announced.
