According to Eldar Murtazin, Samsung is going to come out
with their own version of Google Glass next spring. It will be marketed
under the Gear Glass name and will be available in April/May. Based on
this timing it could be unveiled at the spring Unpacked Event, which is
usually reserved for the next Galaxy S phone.
This news is far from shocking since Samsung has been building their own ecosystem for a few years now. I have no doubt Google Glass will be the better product, but Google hardware doesn’t usually sell well with the mainstream. On the other hand, Samsung’s products are everywhere, and Samsung is just the company to take a glass-like product to the mainstream. Of course you can also expect it to be half baked like the Galaxy Gear, but will Samsung loyalists care?
