The Muse Charm is a new standalone, palm-sized portable device introduced by Meta at the Meta Connect 2026 event. Built around Meta's AI assistant Muse, the Tamagotchi-like gadget is designed to give users real-time voice interaction without needing to open an app. CEO Mark Zuckerberg confirmed that the device is in its late development phase and is expected to be available for purchase in the coming weeks or by December 2026.
The Muse Charm features a small display showing an animated avatar of Muse, a front-facing camera, a fingerprint sensor on the top-right corner, and an action button on the left side. It also includes a dedicated virtual machine called Muse Secure VM to handle tasks.
Powered by a state-of-the-art real-time voice model, the Muse AI assistant on the device can perform tasks on users' behalf such as sending emails, booking tickets, working on forms, and interacting with websites and connected services. It can also remember previous conversations and use those details to complete upcoming tasks, operating even in the background.
