Apple Glasses price and release date
The Apple headset will also be “pricey,” according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman in his latest PowerOn Apple-themed newsletter edition:
Meta isn’t saying when it will go on sale other than sometime in 2022, but this device is going straight after Apple’s first mixed reality headset. Apple is planning to unleash its own pricey device with advanced chips, displays, sensors and avatar-based features as early as next year.
Apple Glasses specs and features
That much we’ve heard already, with Apple Glasses price rumored to be around $3000 for a set of two 8K resolution displays and the necessary Apple Silicon chips needed to process all the visual information in a standalone manner that doesn’t need to be hooked up to a computer.
While Mark Gurman tipped only one Apple Glasses competitor arriving in 2022, Mr Kuo also adds Sony to the mix, saying that all three companies – Apple, Meta, and Sony – will have high-end mixed reality headgear with Wi-Fi 6/6E chips inside.
