Apple Reportedly Testing Four Designs for Upcoming AI Smart Glasses

TechCrunch·medium signal

TechCrunch reports Apple is evaluating four distinct hardware designs for smart glasses, marking a strategic step back from its earlier ambitious AR/VR device roadmap that included Vision Pro and multiple mixed reality form factors. The shift toward simpler, glasses-form-factor wearables suggests Apple is prioritizing the lighter-weight approach that Meta has found traction with via Ray-Ban Meta glasses. Details on AI integration, Siri capabilities, and timeline remain scarce.
