Apple Vision Smart Glasses May Be Closer Than Expected, iOS 27 Hints.

For readers unaware, Visual Intelligence is a new tech feature that provides information when you point the camera at an object. It integrates Siri with the Camera app, so users can point at an object and ask Siri what it is. Similar tech can be used for Apple Glasses, where users point their camera at something and ask Siri.

This could be a great development within Apple’s Vision lineup, following the release of its first AR+VR headset, the Vision Pro, last year.

The upcoming Apple Vision Smart Glasses will pose tough competition for the current Meta Glasses, built in collaboration with Ray-Ban, though it depends on Apple Glass’s pricing.

Whether they are working on Apple Glasses, we will soon get an update. Although there is a possibility that, as Meta has done, Apple might collaborate with an eyewear brand to build its revolutionary Apple Vision Glasses.

Right now, Apple is gearing up to launch its next flagship iPhones, the iPhone 18 models, alongside its first foldable, the iPhone Ultra. According to leaks, the new iPhone will be launched on September 8, 2026.

Also, we will get an update on whether iOS 27 will include Visual Intelligence support for Apple Glasses after its global public rollout, which is also set for September this year. The Apple Smart Glasses are expected to support touch-based controls, such as tap-to-snap for taking photos. We will also be able to record videos, listen to audio, get directions, get answers to questions, identify plants, animals, or objects using AI, and make phone calls and live translations.

There are also a few reports suggesting that Apple Glass might need an active iPhone connection to stream music and use AI to get answers.

There is no update on pricing yet, but it may be priced around Meta glasses, which cost $380.
