Unpacked 26H2 - Wearables, what i want to see

Obsydian — Tue, 24 Mar 2026 11:03:36 GMT

Looking forward to hopefully seeing a few long-awaited items at the second half of 2026 Unpacked.

Watch 9, Ultra 2 - I really hope Samsung switches to a square screen, round is so much wasted space and always needs a scroll down or pinch.

Ring 2 - Alas, I think it has gone the way of the Dodo.

XR Glasses - This is what I am waiting for. If Samsung can catch up with Meta's heads-up display and squeeze better battery life, my money is ready, well, depending on the price point.

AI Assistant - Is still lacking, Samsung need to make Bixby into a Replika-type app.

Intrigued by the XR Glasses, need to see how attractive the offering is, may well be interested in the new watches. Whilst Bixby has improved cannot really seeing the likes of Gemini.

After buying the RayBans MK1 i was converted, but skipped the MK2 and hoping Samsung release like the Meta version with a mini heads up display, add the Samsung ecosytem it has potential - BUT the major ticket for me if which AI assisstant will Samsung use, i think this is where Meta, Samsung, Google will all fail - and ChatGPT fits far better with a conversational AI Assistant.
