Samsung showed two styles of its upcoming Galaxy Glasses during Wednesday’s Galaxy Unpacked event. The company partnered with two eyewear titans, Warby Parker and Gentle Monster, and the styles look distinct.
Mashable got a first look at them in London, and while we couldn’t try them on, we were able to handle them (and they’re light).

The two Warby Parker frames Mashable got a sneak peek of both have square frames, showcasing a classic style. One has tinted lenses.

All the frames are dark, with two pairs tinted and the others clear. According to Samsung’s press release, the tinted Warby pair is brown.

In comparison, one Gentle Monster pair is modern-looking, with narrower lenses; it looks like something you can buy at Urban Outfitters — though, with a much heftier price tag. The second Gentle Monster pair looks similar to the Warby Parker ones, with more square lenses.
According to CNET’s reporting, four styles have been revealed so far. Samsung announced during Unpacked that the glasses will launch this fall.
