Apple is expected to introduce its first smart glasses in 2027, with a potential reveal as early as this year. The details come from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, who has consistently covered the company's advancements in this area.
Currently, Apple is testing four designs for the glasses, which may include both rectangular and oval frame options. Among these, one design features a larger rectangular frame, while another resembles the glasses worn by CEO Tim Cook. Color options under consideration include black, ocean blue, and light brown.
Unlike earlier ambitions that included a range of mixed and augmented reality devices, these glasses will not feature displays. Instead, they will provide functionalities such as taking photos and videos, handling phone calls, playing music, and integrating with the updated Siri. This approach aligns more closely with Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses, following previous delays and mixed feedback regarding the Vision Pro.
