Apple shelves Vision Pro overhaul to focus on AI glasses

SMRTR summary

Apple has paused development of a cheaper Vision Pro headset to focus on AI-powered smart glasses competing with Meta. The company is developing two models: the "N50" that pairs with an iPhone without its own display, planned for unveiling next year and release in 2027, and a second version with a built-in display to rival Meta's Ray-Ban glasses. Apple is rushing to catch up with Meta, which launched its first smart glasses in 2021.
