Apple's Smart Glasses With In-Lens Display May Feature Two Modes
Apple is developing second-generation smart glasses potentially featuring an in-lens display. These smart glasses could operate in two distinct modes. One mode would be a complete visionOS experience when connected to a Mac. The other mode would be a streamlined interface optimized for use with an iPhone. This design allows for versatile functionality adapting to different devices. Apple's smart glasses will contend with Meta's Ray-Bans, although the first-generation Apple glasses won't have an in-lens display. Initial Apple smart glasses are expected to include speaker and camera functionalities. Voice control and health features are also anticipated features. Apple may announce the first generation of smart glasses in 2026. A potential launch date for the first generation is expected in 2027. The pricing for the Meta Ray-Bans with an in-lens display starts at $799.
