Yes, the new report from <em>Bloomberg<\/em> suggests Apple is really intent on competing with Meta in the smart glasses segment and it will fully focus on the product to launch in the next 12 to 15 months.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The report claims Apple will also bring two versions of the smart glasses like Meta, where one will be fully relying on the phone paired while the other one gets a built-in display to function.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The company is likely to keep things simple with these smart glasses and offer features that we have seen with the Meta Ray Ban smart glasses in the market. The Apple AR smart glasses could be unveiled some time in late 2026 with the product available in the market by early 2027. The display-based glasses could be saved up for 2028, it adds.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><strong>No To Vision Pro, Yes To Smart Glasses<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Apple\u2019s urgency suggests all the staff working on the new headset will be used to make the glasses. Earlier reports have hinted that Apple\u2019s smart glasses will get a camera and a mic so that you can record the surroundings and even enable music playback from the built-in speaker. However, Apple is tipped to add its own premium signature design and materials which will make it lightweight and easy to wear.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><strong>Tim Cook\u2019s Big Mission<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The smart glasses are definitely coming into their own with the advent of AI and it seems Apple wants a big piece of this segment. Apple\u2019s CEO, Tim Cook is apparently obsessed with the product and more than AI, he is focused on making this device become a success.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Cook has become adamant that the company\u2019s mission is to beat Meta with its own AR smart glasses. \u201cIt\u2019s the only thing he\u2019s really spending his time on from a product development standpoint,&#8221; an earlier Bloomberg report highlighted his interest.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Having said that, the intent doesn\u2019t seem strong enough because by the time Apple\u2019s first smart glasses roll out in 2027, Meta would have moved to its second-gen display glasses and probably a few more versions. <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"S Aadeetya\" title=\"S Aadeetya\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2023\/11\/aadeetya-3-2023-11-9de48efa65a9ed8ed13a8932cadb6d5a.jpg?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/s-aadeetya-21044.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">S Aadeetya<\/a><\/p>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<!-- --> <span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-c9f81425ec968c48 jsx-626988531 artcta\">\n<div style=\"font-family:Inter;font-size:17px;line-height:28px\"><span data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\">Get latest technology updates, including phone launches, gadget reviews, AI advancements.
