With Snap Specs, though, the company is aiming to make up for lost time by delivering smart glasses that go beyond a hidden camera and voice-activated AI. At the Snapdragon 2026 Summit, I got my hands (and eyes) on a pair of Snap’s soon-to-be-released spatial-computing glasses that overlay digital graphics onto the physical world.

In the interest of not alienating the people around you, Snap chose to make the lenses clear enough that your eyes can still be seen through them, but if you want to close out the world, there’s electrochromic dimming for quick transitions between clear and dark lenses. It both useful and a cool trick. Check it out:

From there, you can use simple gestures to launch apps, watch movies, play games, and do most other tasks you can’t do from your phone. But it was the context-aware, real-world spatial computing tasks that I wanted to try—the things you can't do from a phone or PC.
Are Specs going to be useful in the real world?
A half-hour or so of testing a prototype isn’t enough time to really say whether these will be useful in a person’s real life, but I can say for sure that they’re very cool, and I’m looking forward to going more in-depth with them in the coming months as their release date approaches. Snap Specs are planned for release this fall and will retail for $2,195.
