According to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the second generation AR/VR headset from Apple may come in two different models: high-end and low-end. While Kuo’s claims are not official, they suggest that Apple continues investing in developing augmented and virtual reality technology. If these rumors are true, Apple enthusiasts can look forward to cutting-edge devices from the tech giant in the coming years.

Unveiling Apple’s First Mixed Reality Headset

Bloomberg reports that Apple’s highly-anticipated Mixed Reality headset may be unveiled during the company’s annual Worldwide Developers Conference in June. This device, the subject of much speculation, is expected to have a price tag of around $3,000. It could feature eye-tracking capabilities and Mixed reality technology similar to Meta’s Quest Pro.

However, it’s worth noting that Apple typically announces new products several months before they become available. In fact, Ming-Chi Kuo’s recent comments support this trend. There’s a good chance the headset will launch alongside the iPhone 15 in the third quarter of 2023. Regardless of when it arrives, Apple fans eagerly anticipate this cutting-edge device’s release.

With several exciting new releases, virtual reality enthusiasts have plenty to look forward to in 2023. In addition to Apple’s much-anticipated Mixed Reality headset, the PlayStation VR 2 and the Meta Quest 3 are expected to hit the market.
