Apple Accelerates AR Glasses Launch to 2028
Apple has accelerated its plans for AR glasses, bringing forward the launch of a display-equipped pair from 2028. This move is part of a broader realignment of the tech giant's AR/VR strategy.
The new Apple glasses will come with an array of features, including a special chip, speakers, and a camera. They will heavily rely on voice control and AI, with a new version of Siri planned. Apple is also working on a more comfortable headband for the Vision Pro 2, which is expected to feature an M4 or M5 chip.

The Vision Pro is seen as an interim step towards true AR glasses. Apple is speeding up development of smart glasses, with at least two variants planned.
