Information has emerged that strengthens the rumors that Apple will step into the AR / VR headset industry this year. Earlier, Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said that the virtual reality device is equipped with dual processors and will be almost as high-performance as a Mac. He also claimed that the headset will be introduced in the last quarter of 2022 and will be released in 2023.
The device will use the same adapter as the 14-inch MacBook Pro
Ming-Chi Kuo said in his new statement that Apple’s VR headset will use the same 96W Type-C power adapter as the 14-inch MacBook Pro. In addition, he reiterated that the device will have two different processors, one 5nm and the other 4nm, each manufactured by TSMC.
According to Kuo’s statement, one of these processors will work with the same performance as Apple’s M1 chip. The other will be responsible for managing the sensors on the headset. Again, according to the source, Apple’s VR / AR device will be much more performant compared to its competitors in terms of processing power.
What is known about the Apple VR device
According to the allegations, the total weight of the device will be around 150 grams excluding the battery. In addition, it is claimed to have a chip on the same level as the Apple M1 in rendering performance to a pair of 4K resolution micro OLED displays. Many types of sensors on the device are also said to be designed to detect the user’s surroundings and body movements.
Let’s talk about price. Apple’s first virtual reality glasses are not expected to be cheap. It is estimated that the device will come with a price that is expected to vary between $ 1000 and $ 3000. So what do you think about this device? Do not forget to share your views in the comments section.
