The Wall Street Journal Friday State what to expect from the long-rumoured AR/VR headset project, confirming many details he mentioned earlier bloombergMark Gorman W the informationwhere what?

The report indicates that Apple plans to unveil the headset at WWDC in June, and says that many of the conference sessions will be related to software development for the headset. However, the news agency claims that mass production of the device is not expected to start until September due to manufacturing delays. Apple is said to “expect some production issues” with the headset, but there are no details.

The headset is expected to have an internal screen for virtual reality, while external cameras allow users to see the real world inside the headset with augmented reality overlays. This mixture is known as “mixed reality”.

Another detail confirmed by the report is that the speaker is “experimental” and “unconventional” compared to most other Apple products, and it costs about $3,000 and has an external battery attached to the waist belt. The report adds that FaceTime, Apple Fitness +, and gaming could be the top three use cases for the headset.

While it’s still not clear what the speaker’s biggest selling point is, its capabilities “far outpace those of competitors,” according to some of the sources cited in the report. Apple’s headset is said to offer “higher levels of performance and immersion” than some competing devices, such as the Quest Pro headset from Meta, Facebook’s parent company.

WWDC kicks off with an Apple keynote on June 5th, which means Apple’s headset is likely just a few weeks away from being revealed to the public.
