Overview

• Apple has halted the lower‑cost Vision Air/N100 effort and reassigned staff to accelerate smart‑glasses development, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.
• At least two glasses are in the works: an initial screenless, iPhone‑paired model reportedly tracking toward a 2026 preview and a 2027 launch, and a follow‑on version with an in‑lens display on an accelerated timeline.
• A future glasses design is reported to support full visionOS when tethered to a Mac and a lighter interface when paired with an iPhone.
• The first model is expected to emphasize voice and AI with onboard speakers, cameras, and custom silicon, with multiple styles explored and potential health features under consideration.
• Vision Pro remains Apple’s high‑end headset, with reporting pointing to a modest refresh featuring a faster chip and improved ergonomics possibly by year‑end.
