Samsung’s first Android XR glasses face a design problem its competitor already solved

Samsung and Google, along with partners Warby Parker and Gentle Monster, have a problem with the upcoming Android XR smart glasses — or ‘intelligent eyewear’ as they’re often called.

It’s not about software or hardware, in a tech sense, but design and fit. The trouble is, they’re up against Ray-Ban and the Wayfarer, sunglasses that are instantly recognizable, easy to wear, and suit almost all face shapes.
