The smart glasses arena is now dominated by Meta through smart glasses developed with Ray-Ban. Meta has also shown a number of devices in development, which are expected to change the way users interact around the world.
In addition to Meta, several parties have also begun to focus on offering smart glasses, including Samsung, which is ready to introduce them soon. Not only that, now Bloomberg says Apple is targeting smart glasses to be one of their main product categories.
Internally, Apple is developing smart glasses with the code N50, and is targeted for introduction by the end of 2026, and launch in 2027. It may take an introduction method like a smartwatch, which Apple announced first before selling it a few months later.
Through Apple's first smart glasses, it is expected to offer features such as recording photos and videos, synchronizing content with a smartphone, answering voice calls, listening to notifications, playing music, and doing a number of things via voice commands. The introduction of smart glasses is also expected to focus on Siri and Apple Intelligence as one of the main interaction methods moving forward.
In addition to Apple, various parties are also competing to introduce and improve their respective smart glasses offerings. And if we look at it, it could become one of the main product categories for interaction and staying connected in the next few years.
