Apple is reportedly gearing up to release its highly anticipated smart glasses featuring microLED technology by 2026. The rumored device could redefine wearable tech with a lightweight design and unprecedented performance.
Apple’s microLED Smart Glasses Rumored for 2026 Mass Production
As it gets ready for its forthcoming smart glasses, rumor has it that Apple is still preparing for microLED technology. The story also includes an expected year for the start of mass manufacturing, so let's talk about that.
Apple is reportedly planning to release its augmented reality eyeglasses in 2027, according to WCCFTECH, despite the fact that building the smart glasses has probably been an exhaustive ordeal.
microLED Displays to Revolutionize Wearable Tech
Unfortunately, countless obstacles could materialize at any moment, halting the advancement. This wearable is reportedly going to use microLED technology, and according to Jukanlosreve, Apple plans to start mass producing it in 2026.
The tipster did not specify whether the smart glasses or displays will be mass-produced in the mentioned year; nonetheless, we will hopefully gain confirmation in a subsequent post on X. It would be a very different story if Apple could figure out a way to mass produce microLED screens, but augmented reality glasses are a completely different beast.
Challenges of Lightweight Design for Apple’s AR Glasses
For starters, it has to be incredibly light—just a few grams more than regular reading glasses—but still functional.
Second, the chipset that drives this wearable gadget must reach the unattainable goal of rivaling the performance of an iPhone while only using 10% of the power.
Apple Watch Ultra May Also Feature microLED in 2026
A next Apple Watch Ultra model is rumored to incorporate microLED technology and is expected to appear in 2026, according to the report. Jukanlosreve did not reveal the source of his information on the grandiose goals of the California-based company, but it seemed to be a bit much.
Apple, on the other hand, is one of those multibillion-dollar corporations that shoot high; occasionally, this strategy yields outstanding products, and other times, it forces the company to abandon development. We will have to wait for more information on the smart glasses and the Apple Watch Ultra before we can make any decisions.
