Apple is reportedly gearing up to launch its first AI-powered smart glasses, codenamed “N50,” in 2026, positioning the device as a sleek alternative to bulky headsets and a direct competitor to Meta’s Ray-Ban Meta and Xreal’s Air series. Meta’s Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, which combine a 12 MP camera, open-ear speakers, and live translation, launched locally on April 30, 2025, through authorized retailers and online outlets, though some AI functions remain region-locked. Meanwhile, Xreal’s Air AR glasses—available via Lazada and Ubuy for around ₱23,700—deliver a private 130-inch virtual display for gaming, movies, and productivity, proving that Filipino consumers are eager for hands-free experiences. As the smart-glasses market heats up, Apple’s emphasis on seamless iPhone integration, robust privacy controls, and polished design could give it an edge over existing products. Here's what we found out -- Cherry Mobile's Flare Infinity touting a 5.5-inch Full HD edge-to-edge LTPS display is similar in image and specifications to the recently-released Ulefone Future and may be that device all along.
