Apple Eyes 2026 Launch for Sleek Smart Glasses with Built-In Cameras
Apple appears poised to revolutionise wearable technology once again—this time withsmart glasses that could hit the market as early as 2026. According to a recentreport by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the tech titan is developing a new wearablethat promises to blend cutting-edge hardware with Apple's trademark sleekdesign. Theseupcoming smart glasses are expected to feature embedded cameras, microphones,and speakers, allowing users to engage in hands-free interactions. UnlikeApple's bulky Vision Pro headset, which received attention but struggled to gomainstream, the glasses are designed to be lightweight, discreet, and wearablein everyday settings. Accordingto Gurman, the glasses will be able to 'see what you see, hear what you hear,and help out as needed,' indicating a shift toward more context-awarefunctionality. If accurate, this innovation could align Apple with recentdevelopments teased at Google I/O 2025, where Google showcased its ProjectAura—an Android XR smart glass prototype capable of understanding itsenvironment. Apple'sversion appears to be aiming for the same smart, reactive experience. Byintegrating real-time environmental awareness, these glasses could enhanceeverything from navigation to task management through voice and visual inputs. Prototypesof the glasses may be ready by the end of this year, with Apple reportedlydeveloping a custom chip specifically for the device. Given Apple's reputationfor efficient, high-performance silicon, this tailored chip could be key todelivering seamless, all-day usage without compromising on speed or batterylife. 'Theglasses are said to come packed with cameras, microphones and speakers,' Gurmanreported. This combination is expected to bring a host of features that go farbeyond passive display, ushering in an era of active, assistive eyewear. Interestingly,Gurman also noted that Apple may scrap earlier plans to add a camera to futureApple Watch models. That shift might be strategic, with Apple favouring a morenatural, face-forward device that better captures the user's perspective. WhileApple has not confirmed any of these developments—it remains tight-lipped onunannounced products—the report hints that the upcoming glasses could be astepping stone toward a more ambitious future: fully functional AR eyewear. Bloombergsuggests that these smart glasses are not the final goal but a precursor tomore advanced augmented reality devices. Apple is reportedly working towardcreating lightweight AR spectacles that can seamlessly blend the digital and physicalworlds, much like it did when it turned smartphones into everyday essentials. Should Gurman's predictions prove accurate, Apple's smart glasses couldtransform how users interact with technology—making screens on wrists and inhands feel like a thing of the past. Asalways, Apple's late entry into the smart glasses arena might just be theboldest move yet.

Apple plans to launch smart glasses with cameras as soon as next year
Hold on to your specs—Apple might soon be giving your everyday eyewear a major tech makeover. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the tech giant is quietly gearing up to join the smart glasses race. While they might be fashionably late, we all know Apple rarely turns up without making a statement. The glasses are tipped to arrive by late 2026 and could bring a slick mix of design and the chunky and not-so-subtle Vision Pro headset that had an early buzz but failed to break into the mainstream, these new Apple glasses are being framed as a different kind of wearable – lighter, sleeker, and, most importantly, wearable in public without looking like you've walked out of a sci-fi to Mark Gurman, these glasses are said to come packed with cameras, microphones and speakers, enabling all kinds of hands-free interaction. Whether you're changing tracks, asking Siri a question, or just living your life, the glasses will be right there with you – seeing what you see, hearing what you hear, and helping out as needed. Interestingly, if the report is true, then Apple smart glasses may feature a similar feature we witnessed during the Google I/O 2025 event. Here, Google teased its upcoming Project Aura, an Android XR smart glass that is aware of its surroundings. If you want to know more about Google's upcoming smart glasses, read here. But this means that with Apple smart glasses, you won't just be telling Siri what to do; it can see and react to your surroundings, offering a richer, more responsive the whispers are true, Apple's working on getting prototypes ready by the end of this year, and a custom chip is already in development to power the experience. Given the company's track record, this bespoke silicon could offer smooth, efficient performance – exactly what you'd need in something you wear on your face all this pair of glasses might not even be the final destination. Bloomberg suggests that Apple sees this upcoming product as a stepping stone – a stylish stopgap on the road to fully-fledged AR spectacles. That's the real endgame: lightweight, everyday eyewear that blends the digital and physical worlds seamlessly. It's ambitious, but then again, this is Apple we're talking about – the same company that turned the smartphone into an essential life said, one surprising nugget from the report is that Apple might drop plans to add a camera to future Apple Watch models. Perhaps the wrist just isn't the best place for a lens after all – not when the face offers a better course, all of this is still unofficial – Apple's famously secretive when it comes to unannounced products. But if what Mark Gurman's reporting holds true, the next few years could see your sunglasses doing a lot more than shielding you from the sun. Apple may be joining the smart glasses game late, but if history is any indicator, it'll be worth the wait.

Google 聯合創始人 Sergey Brin 承認自己在 Google Glass 上「犯了些錯誤」
作為穿戴 AR 領域真正的先驅，2013 年橫空出世的 Google Glass 在廣義上並不算是一個成功。多年後來到 I/O 2025，當年發表了這款產品的 Google 聯合創始人 Sergey Brin 在參與 Deepmind CEO Demis Hassabis 主持的對話時，承認自己在 Google Glass 上的確「犯了些錯誤」。 「我當時根本就不了解消費電子供應鏈，真的，也不清楚打造這麼一款眼鏡，然後以合理的價格銷售以及管理所有製造流程等等究竟有多難。」Brin 如此說道。不過他仍相信外觀設計的重要性，同時還指出現在的 Google 不用再孤軍作戰，他們已經有了 Samsung（Project Moohan）、Xreal（Project Aura）這樣的「優秀合作夥伴」一同發展 Android XR。 Brin 還提到十幾年前 Google Glass 誕生時還存在「技術差距」，但這在今時今日已不存在。「如今在 AI 領域，這些眼鏡能夠幫助你，同時又不會一直分散你的注意力，這就比以前有用多了。」Brin 這麼說道。 更多內容： Xreal Project Aura 是第二款官宣的 Android XR 裝置 緊貼最新科技資訊、網購優惠，追隨 Yahoo Tech 各大社交平台！ 🎉📱 Tech Facebook： 🎉📱 Tech Instagram： 🎉📱 Tech WhatsApp 社群： 🎉📱 Tech WhatsApp 頻道： 🎉📱 Tech Telegram 頻道：

Google co-founder Sergey Brin admits to 'mistakes' over Google Glass
Before augmented reality was ever a thing, there was Google Glass: a much hyped experiment that was ultimately a failure over issues like privacy (and just looking like a dork). At an I/O session yesterday with Deepmind CEO Demis Hassabis, Google co-founder Sergey Brin admitted that he made "mistakes" with Google Glass in several areas. "I just didn't know anything about consumer electronic supply chain chains, really, and how hard it would be to build that and have it it at a reasonable price point and managing all the manufacturing and so forth," he said during the session. Brin said that he's still a believer in the form factor, though, adding that Xreal's latest device looks like "normal glasses" without "that thing in front." He noted that rather than going it alone as before, Google now has "great partners" in Samsung (the Project Moohan headset) and Xreal (Project Aura glasses) as part of the Android XR extended reality program. There was also a "technology gap" when Google Glass came along in 2013 that no longer exists, according to Brin. "Now in the AI world, the things that these glasses can do to help you out without constantly distracting you, that capability is much higher," he said Google Glass wasn't a complete flop. It's easy to forget that the product soldiered on for many years after its debut, largely as an enterprise device, and was only fully discontinued in 2023. It also paved a path for future VR and AR wearables like the Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, Meta Quest and Apple Vision Pro. Come to think of it, though, none of those projects have exactly set the world on fire, either.
