 It's been a while since rumors and reports suggested Apple is exploring a new divisive product category, and it's been several years since the Apple car. Unfortunately, the new challenger is a wearable AI pin with cameras, mics and… zero interest from me.
According to a report from The Information, it'll resemble a slightly thicker AirTag with an aluminum and glass exterior. The report suggests it'll have two cameras (standard and wide-angle) for photos and video. It may also have three microphones and a (swoon) physical button. I love a physical button.
TMAAppleHow is Apple going to pitch it? What is the non-creepy, not-nefarious selling point of a tiny listening device with cameras? As Engadget's Devindra Hardawar puts it: Why attempt an unproven wearable? Especially when its own Watch and AirPods could already deliver a lot of what's being rumored here.
The Information says Apple could release its AI pin as early as 2027, but it's reportedly only in the very early stages and could still be canceled. Even if the Vision Pro and Watch eventually happened, the Apple Car and the Apple TV never did.
