Reports have emerged suggesting the departure of a key executive from Snap's augmented reality glasses division, known as Specs Inc. This comes as the company prepares for the highly anticipated public launch of its AR glasses, a project representing a significant long-term investment for Snap.

However, the executive's departure has not been independently confirmed by major financial news organizations. Snap recently restructured its AR hardware team into a new subsidiary, Specs Inc., to enhance focus and attract external investment ahead of the planned 2026 consumer release. The loss of a top team member at this stage could impact the product's final development and launch timeline.
