Overview

• Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports Apple has halted work on the lower-cost Vision Pro (N100) and reassigned staff to accelerate multiple smart‑glasses projects.
• The first glasses are reportedly focused on voice and AI with onboard speakers, cameras, and a custom chip, with a preview possible in 2026 and a launch targeted for 2027.
• A second model with an in‑lens display is being sped up, and MacRumors relays that it may support a full visionOS experience when paired with a Mac and a lighter interface when paired with an iPhone.
• Vision Pro remains in the lineup as a high‑end showcase, with a modest refresh expected soon that adds a faster chip and improved ergonomics, according to the reports.
• The glasses strategy is said to depend on a rebuilt Siri and Apple Intelligence features slated for 2026, as Meta’s Ray‑Ban Display and other AI wearables reach consumers.
