Apple is reportedly planning to introduce its first smart glasses in late 2027, while simultaneously developing a more advanced Vision headset that might launch in late 2028 or early 2029, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. These two projects indicate Apple's potential to compete directly with Meta and other companies in the emerging smart-glasses market.
The first generation of smart glasses is expected to resemble Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses, incorporating cameras, microphones, speakers, and AI capabilities without an integrated visual display. The device is likely to enhance Siri and Apple Intelligence with visual context from the user's surroundings, leveraging computer vision and tight integration with the iPhone.
Apple is also exploring the development of a more powerful mixed-reality headset called N224, which could be released as late as late 2028 or early 2029, though its commercial viability remains uncertain. This dual-track approach suggests Apple is considering both lightweight AI glasses for everyday use and a more immersive headset for richer computing experiences.
