Things may change in the new year for Apple, which has not yet responded to the virtual / augmented reality glasses moves made by its competitors both on the mobile platform and for more professional devices. A lot of information about the new generation glasses, which is expected to be introduced by Apple, is added every new day. Here are the details about Apple’s virtual reality glasses so far…
The device is expected to be called Apple Glasses
Information has come about the new device, which is expected to be announced by Apple at the launch in the winter of next year and is expected to be called Apple Glasses. Especially in the last 20 years, the company, which has radically changed the habits of tablets, smart watches, smartphones and MP3 players in the market, is expected to make the same revolution for virtual / augmented reality. In this sense, Apple’s biggest rival in the market will be Occulus Quest.
Apple’s entry into the virtual reality market is predicted to come with interchangeable headbands and a curved visor that is much thinner than its competitors and held to the face with natural mesh materials.
It is thought that the total weight of the device will be around 150 grams, excluding the battery. It is claimed that the device will feature a pair of 4K resolution micro-OLED displays – possibly even 8K – and a chip on par with the Apple M1 in processing performance. Many types of sensors in the device are designed to detect the user’s surroundings and body movements.
These leaked and rumored features of the device suggest that it may be developed not only for the Apple eco system, but also for high-end hardware such as PC. In this sense, Apple also winks at the Meta universe, which is expected to guide the world of the future. It is stated that this new generation device developed by Apple will offer both virtual and augmented reality.
Let’s come to the possible dates of the device’s release… Some sources state that the device will be released at the end of 2022, and some in 2023.
In this sense, it should be noted that while Apple enters an area where it has never existed before (such as the Apple Watch), it has to make the announcement first and wait 1 year to enter the market. In summary, the most plausible prediction is that the virtual reality glasses will be announced at the 2022 WWDC Developers Conference and will be released sometime in 2023.
Apple’s first virtual reality glasses are not expected to be cheap. It is said that the device will come with a price that is expected to range from $ 1000 to $ 3000. So what do you think about this device? Do not forget to share your views with us in the comments section.
