Apple’s AR/VR Headset Could Debut Sooner Than Previously Thought

Apple’s AR/VR Headset Could Debut Sooner Than Previously Thought

Apple’s solution is expected to be dramatically more powerful than current VR headsets, supposedly featuring a processor that has performance similar to recent MacBooks. Rumors suggest this first version might be priced over $2,000. It will reportedly be released as a development platform, however, there is another way to justify the cost. If the Apple AR/VR headset can replace a laptop computer, the seemingly high price is suddenly quite reasonable since the 2021 MacBook Pro starts at $1,999.

Meanwhile, Meta’s Project Cambria headset is expected to offer functionality that’s similar to a laptop, specifically, a Chromebook. Meta has said the price will be more than $800, presenting an interesting decision for AR and VR enthusiasts. Will the more expensive Apple solution be intriguing and powerful enough in its initial form to justify the higher cost or will Meta’s well-established but less powerful headset win the day and send Apple back to the drawing board? The answer could arrive within months. Apple‘s Worldwide Developers Conference takes place in June, a likely platform for an introduction to its AR/VR headset.
