Popular tech analyst Mark Gurman has unveiled new information about Apple’s upcoming smart glasses. In his Power On newsletter, he reported that instead of developing a direct successor to the Vision Pro, Apple is focusing on a lightweight and wearable smart glass—similar to Meta’s Ray-Ban display. The report was carried by The Verge.

According to Gurman, the new smart glasses will operate on Apple’s VisionOS system. Its standout feature will be a dual user interface (UI)—running the full VisionOS interface when connected to a Mac, and switching to a lighter, mobile-friendly version when paired with an iPhone.

Analysts suggest this move marks a significant evolution in Apple’s wearable ecosystem, allowing users to seamlessly balance productivity and entertainment through a single device.

Gurman also hinted that the project remains in its early development stage but could ultimately shape the future of Apple’s mixed-reality strategy.
