Renowned Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, after reporting about the iPhone 13 and the future MacBook Pros, has now released a new report about Apple’s AR/VR headset and the AR Glasses. So, as per Kuo’s prediction, Apple is preparing to launch its advanced AR/VR headset as soon as next year. On the other hand, the long-rumored Apple AR Glass, according to the analyst, will not come to the market until 2025.
As per Kuo, the Cupertino giant plans to launch a new “helmet type” AR/VR headset in 2022. He says that Apple is currently working with prototypes of the mixed reality headset that weigh around 200-300 grams. However, he notes that “if Apple can successfully solve the significant technical problems, the final product weight will be reduced to 100–200 grams”.

Other than the AR/VR headset and AR Glass, Kuo also mentions a futuristic AR contact lens that is currently in development. He says that Apple aims to launch this product sometime between 2030-2040.
