iOS 27 Beta Hints at Camera-Ready AirPods Ultra or Apple Glasses

Apple Glasses Could Spark a Wearable-Eyewear Shakeup Like the Apple Watch

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says Apple’s forthcoming smart glasses could emulate the Apple Watch’s disruption, leveraging Apple’s brand, design, and iPhone integration to challenge Ray‑Ban/Warby Parker in a broad $200 billion eyewear market. The first glasses are expected to arrive around 2027 as a camera/AI combo without an eye screen, with a slimmer Vision Pro–style headset and hands‑free gestures arriving later.

Apple's Smart Glasses Slated for Late 2027 Launch With Cameras and AR Ambitions

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports Apple plans to launch its first smart glasses in late 2027 (moved back from an earlier early-2027 target), featuring oval cameras, multiple frame styles, and color options, with built-in cameras, speakers, and mics for calls and Siri notifications. Apple reportedly views the glasses as a top priority for Tim Cook, with potential to evolve into a health device and add augmented-reality capabilities years down the line; no in-lens AR display is expected soon. The device will compete in the $200–$500 range and may include turn-by-turn directions.
