Lenny's Podcast: Product | Career | Growth · Snapchat CEO: Why distribution has become the most important moat | Evan Spiegel · 26 Apr 2026 podcast

We get enormous value from computers, but at the same time, I think the cost is quite meaningful.

And

And I think they need to evolve.

So with the early version of Spectacles, I guess that was back in 2014 or something like that, the initial idea was just to get the camera off the phone, right, out of your pocket, and allow you to more easily take snaps out in the world.

But we then sort of built a roadmap from there, right, where we added a second camera to get depth, we added a display to be able to overlay

digital objects into the world and help you interact with them.

And then with the last generation in 2024, we released our operating system, which now allows developers to build full-featured software inside of specs in preparation for the consumer launch.

I don't know.

I think the time is right for a new type of computer.

I think people are frustrated with the cost of using phones and computers today.

They're kind of all hunched over like gremlins.

And we can build a new computer.

We have built a new computer that brings people outside, that helps them connect together with their friends, that frees them up to actually use their hands to interact with the world.

And that, to me, is really exciting.

I think it's a whole new chapter.

And

Gosh, I mean, what, it's been 20 years or something since the iPhone.

So it's about time for something new, I think.

I do think social norms will play a big role, but I also think one of the things people experience with AR, specs, unlike these heads-up display glasses, they don't just put an annoying little screen that's stuck to your face on the glasses.

They actually anchor content in the world, which is really different.
