At this time, neither the price nor the market for Muse Charm has been announced. Meta has only officially confirmed that further information will be provided later in 2026. Therefore, no arrival in Europe has been announced yet.
For products likely to debut in the EU, the presence of cameras, microphones and fingerprint sensors makes data management particularly important. The GDPR regulates the processing of personal data and considers data used to uniquely identify an individual as biometric data. This does not mean that Muse Charm will definitely be banned in Europe, but Meta will have to comply with applicable data processing obligations and provide users with sufficient information and control, including the ability to actually access through artificial intelligence.
