A smartphone is a better AR platform than Google Glass because you can hold it up directly in front of your field of vision and use AR apps.

Google Glass is wearable, but the display position is fixed relative to your head. You have to look up to see the screen, so unless you tilt your head down in some awkward manner to point to what you want the AR overlay on, it won't work. Not a very good AR experience.
