Apple is reportedly already working on a second-generation mixed reality headset for 2024

Apple is reportedly working on a second-generation mixed reality headset. It could be launched as early as 2024.

If the various, and now many, rumors are true, Apple will be gearing up to launch its first mixed reality headset during 2022. This will be just the start of a much larger project on the part of the Cupertino company, aiming to bring more virtual and/or augmented reality devices to market, with the ultimate goal of replacing the iPhone with augmented reality glasses, so to speak, in the next ten years.

That being said, if a first generation model could indeed arrive next year, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo today argues that the Apple brand will not waste any time and is currently hard at work on the design of a second generation helmet that will be sold. in 2024. This second-generation model should feature not only a lighter design, but also a new battery system and a more efficient processor.

Could be launched as early as 2024.

After all, it’s not surprising. First-generation models, whatever they are, are very often aimed at the tech-savvy, and over time, companies tweak their products to make them better, lighter, more functional, and potentially cheaper. It is difficult to say whether the helmet that will be offered in 2024 will be a pair of goggles, the famous goggles that have been rumored for so long, or whether it will still be a helmet similar to the virtual reality helmets that already exist on the market, but to find out, you’ll have to wait.

Rumors in any case say that Cupertino helmets will not be handed over. In other words, it seems rather ambitious, or at least premature, that the company is already working on a second model without seeing the success of the first. Is it presumptuous? If the Apple brand does not fully trust its technology.
