Apple plans expansion of XR device lineup
Apple is gearing up to drop at least seven new XR headsets and smart glasses over the next few years, starting in 2025.
Expect features like voice control, gesture recognition, video recording, and AI-powered environmental sensing—basically, a big leap for wearable tech.
Vision Pro and Vision Air headsets
The next-gen Vision Pro lands in late 2025 with Apple's speedy M5 chip, keeping its core specs but running smoother.
In 2027, the lighter Vision Air headset (about 40% less weight) arrives with a plastic-magnesium build and an iPhone-level chip inside—priced between $1,500-$2,000.
Apple's smart glasses and 2nd-gen Vision Pro
Apple's smart glasses are set for a 2027 debut to rival Meta's Ray-Bans, packing better AI features and premium build.
Meanwhile, a more affordable second-gen Vision Pro will launch in 2028 with a Mac-class processor.
Apple's roadmap keeps it right in step with Meta and Google on the XR scene.
