Apple\u2019s second-generation smart glasses, expected to be introduced in 2027, will offer a unique experience<\/strong> for both Mac and iPhone users by running different operating systems<\/strong> depending on the connected device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Apple<\/strong> continues its investments in the field of mixed reality<\/strong>, new noteworthy information has emerged about the company’s second-generation smart glasses. According to Bloomberg’s reliable reporter Mark Gurman\u2019s Power On newsletter, Apple<\/strong> is designing these glasses to be able to operate in different software environments<\/strong> when connected to a Mac or an iPhone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report suggests that when connected to a Mac, the glasses will be able to run the full version of the visionOS operating system<\/strong>, which is used in the Vision Pro<\/a><\/em><\/strong>. However, when connected to an iPhone, a lighter and more energy-efficient interface<\/strong>, more suitable for the device\u2019s hardware capacity<\/strong>, will be activated. This approach indicates that Apple<\/strong> wants to create a transition model compatible with the ecosystem before making the glasses a completely standalone device<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is worth noting that Apple’s<\/strong> first-generation smart glasses were said to be without a built-in screen. In contrast, the second-generation model is stated to complete these perceived shortcomings, offering a more practical<\/strong> and versatile experience<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it is also suggested that Apple<\/a><\/em><\/strong> is even considering canceling this version due to the risk of the device failing. Among the connection methods tested by the company, the wired connection offers the most stable and low-latency performance but is seen as a bulky solution for everyday use. Therefore, Apple<\/strong> is expected to offer wireless pairing<\/strong> with a special connection technology similar to the H2 chip used in AirPods Pro 3 in the final product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Gurman, Apple’s<\/strong> primary goal is to develop a completely independent smart headset<\/strong> in the future that possesses the processing power and software capacity<\/strong> of the iPhone. This would allow users to experience mixed reality<\/strong> without needing any other device. Although there has been no official statement from the Apple<\/strong> front, the second-generation smart glasses are expected to be unveiled around 2027. The role this product will play in the company’s mixed reality strategy<\/strong> after the Vision Pro will become clear in the coming years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
