Grover has similar feelings of wonder while roaming post-apocalyptic landscapes. “Hiking is a weird kind of hobby, because when you’re halfway through it, you’re like, why is this even fun?” he says – a feeling that disappears, he adds, after catching sight of the undulating vistas of green and brown stretching out beneath the mountain. Densely forested and scored by river and trail, Grover is self-effacing about his expeditions into this hilly terrain. With work on the Apple Glasses postponed, there is no word on when Apple might be ready to launch the product.Jeff Grover* likes to walk, a pastime suited to the landscape of his home on the border between Massachusetts and upstate New York.
Apple is said to see the Apple Glasses as a product that could one day replace the iPhone. Work on the device has been scaled back, but has not been stopped entirely. Apple has not been able to develop the hardware required for a lightweight wearable with the power of an iPhone and enough battery life to run it.
Development DelayĪccording to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple has postponed development on the Apple Glasses because of technical difficulties. CostĪpple was said to be planning to sell the glasses for somewhere around $499, with prescription lenses available for an additional cost. iPhone RelianceĪpple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggested the Apple Glasses would be marketed as an iPhone accessory, serving as a connected display while offloading computing, networking, and positioning to the iPhone. Leaker Jon Prosser claimed that the glasses will look similar to Ray-Ban Wayfarers or the glasses that Tim Cook wears, while Bloomberg said a prototype Apple developed resembles high-end sunglasses with thick frames that house the battery and chips. The glasses are said to look similar to regular glasses, with lenses that have built-in displays that can be interacted with using gestures.Īpple was rumored to be planning to use Sony's microOLED displays that feature an ultra-fast response rate, ultra-high contrast, a wide color gamut, high luminance, low reflectance, and integrated drivers for a thin and light design. The Apple Glasses are supposed to be more of an everyday wearable product than the headset, and they will resemble traditional glasses. This guide aggregates everything that we know about the Apple Glasses so far, but be warned that this is a project that Apple may have permanently shelved. Rumors have shifted and the Apple Glasses project is on hold with no word on when we might see the product. For several years, rumors suggested that Apple would follow its mixed reality AR/VR headset with a set of lighter weight augmented reality "Apple Glasses" that would launch sometime around 2024.
