Apple’s AR/VR glasses will cost $2,000 and will be powered by the M1 Pro chip
The popular analyst Mark Gurman has shared his predictions about Apple’s AR / VR glasses: M1 Pro chip, focused on video games, doubts in the name and prices from $2,000.
For many years, everything indicates that Apple would have been working on a project to launch virtual reality glasses. Despite the fact that the latest rumors in this regard indicate that Apple’s AR / VR glasses could be delayed until 2023, analysts continue to speculate on what Apple’s next big launch could look like.
And, among Apple’s plans, It seems that these AR / VR glasses would start from close to $ 2,000 at launch. However, the price of them could be justified by incorporating the latest technologies, including the M1 Pro chip of the current MacBook Pro.
Analysts bet on high prices for Apple’s AR / VR glasses, but also on the best components
As we mentioned, analyst Mark Gurman recently has published a new edition of the newsletter Power On, through which he has shared details about what the AR / VR glasses that Apple is planning could be like. His first prediction is related to the price, which could be close to $2,000 at launch., justified by Apple’s pricing policies and required components and development:
“Apple usually charges a little more than its competitors for its products. […] The new glasses will not be an exception, but the main reason the company has talked about prices above $2,000 is because of some of its internal technologies.”

However, it seems that These Apple AR / VR glasses could also incorporate the new M1 Pro chip present in the latest MacBook Pro. Basically, this chip would be ideal due to the great graphic power it has (greater than that of the M1 chip), since the idea is that the glasses are prepared for video games, multimedia content and else.
Furthermore, just as shared 9to5mac, there also seems to be some discussion internally at Apple about what the name of this VR product might be. While Mark Gurman bets especially on Apple Vision as a name for it, mainly because it is the most realistic of those considered so far, other names like Apple Reality, Apple Sight or iSight are also still on the table. And, as if that were not enough, there are also Apple Lens or even Apple Googles possibilities, which were the first names that appeared.
