As soon as next year, Apple will be debuting its first pair of AI-powered smart glasses. They’ll integrate Visual Intelligence and bring Siri to the real world. Here’s what we’re expecting.
Core features
First and foremost, these glasses are AI glasses, not AR glasses. That means they’ll primarily be voice and camera-based, as they won’t have any displays.
The cameras will allow Siri to look at your real world environment and answer questions, provide context, and translate signage. Another feature that we’ll likely see on these glasses is the ability for you to ask Siri to save an image of something and remind you later, as we first saw in the macOS 26.7 leak.
They’ll also offer speakers for music and audio playback, so you can think of them as open-ear headphones.
