Apple Delays First Smart Glasses to WWDC 2027 Over Privacy Concerns

Apple has postponed the reveal of its first smart glasses to WWDC in June 2027, with sales anticipated later that year, according to Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman. The device, codenamed N50, was initially scheduled for late 2026 with an early 2027 launch, but the new timeline delays this by about six months. Gurman notes that Apple's Vision hardware group and related teams consider privacy their top priority and aim to distance the launch from criticism faced by Meta's Ray-Ban glasses.
