Briefings

Apple's first smart glasses are reportedly slightly thinner than Meta's 2nd gen Ray-Ban glasses. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman states the company's first model, which will lack augmented reality features, will be announced at June's WWDC next year. They likely won't ship right away, however, with Gurman saying only that glasses shipments would begin before the end of the year. The prototypes, dubbed N50, are expected to launch with a revamped Siri AI adding fine-grained control over apps.
