9to5Mac • • general
Key Points:
- Apple aims to launch lightweight augmented reality (AR) glasses that could potentially replace the iPhone between 2028 and 2030, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
- The company is also developing a roughly 20-inch foldable iPad, a project prioritized by new Apple CEO John Ternus, though its release remains uncertain and it may never reach the market.
- Apple plans to release AI smart glasses sooner, with an unveiling expected later this year or early 2027 and shipping to users within 2027.
- The foldable iPad's launch timeline has been pushed from late 2026 to as late as 2028, and its future is unclear despite being a priority for Ternus.
- If the upcoming foldable iPhone Ultra performs well, Apple may accelerate the development of the foldable iPad.
