Apple is speeding up work on smart glasses that would compete with similar offerings from Meta and halting plans for a lighter Vision Pro headset, Bloomberg reports.
The version of the glasses with a display “could challenge” the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses, which have a display in the right lens.
Apple is also working on a chip specifically designed for its smart glasses, Bloomberg has previously reported.
With its glasses, Apple will be late to the game.
As for the lighter Vision Pro headset, Apple had been rumored to launch the product in 2027, but the company told staff that it was pulling people from that headset to help with the glasses.
