Trusted analyst Ming-Chi Kuo returns with a supposed timeline for Apple’s rumored XR technology. Respected analyst and Apple research expert Ming-Chi Kuo revealed yesterday that the company will be launching its long-rumored mixed reality headset “mid-2021,” according to a report by MacRumors.
According to a Bloomberg report, Apple has shuttered an AR glasses project aimed at mainstream consumers. Apple Vision Pro | Image courtesy Apple Still, the Mac-connected version of the device allegedly underperformed during executive reviews.
Augmented reality will forever change the way we communicate says the Apple CEO. According to a recent report by Apple research expert Ming-Chi Kuo , Apple will be launching a mixed reality headset later this year, followed by a dedicated AR headset in 2025 and AR contact lenses in 2030.

The XR landscape has changed significantly over the last five years with the flourishing of standalone headsets and new entrants like Apple and (soon) Google. Not only that, you’d have to convince me that Apple would dive head-first into the market with its own headset… and it would cost $3,500!
In Gurman’s weekly newsletter, he rounds up a wide range of recent XR news, from Meta possibly including a display in its next Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses to reports of Apple winding down Vision Pro production amid decreased demand for the $3,500 headset.
Meta hopes to launch such AR glasses before 2030 , with other major companies hoping to do the same, including Apple, Samsung, and Google. The post Meta Reveals Next Generation Aria Smart Glasses for Research and Experimentation appeared first on Road to VR.
This week, Pico gets new funding, SXSW charges forward with online event, and new Apple AR rumors emerge. Apple rumored to launch MR glasses in 2022 and AR glasses in 2025. It also is rumored that Apple will be releasing AR contact lenses by 2030-2040. W elcome back to Spatial Beats.
Zuckerberg sets the Metaverse for 2030 and beyond. Zuck has explained to them to be patient because the Metaverse, which no one knows what actually is, is happening beyond 2030. For sure he knows that pros will be Apple’s target and hopes to beat Apple with his device (AHAHAHAH). Send me hugs. Top news of the week.
Despite Vision Pro’s $3,500 price tag, which is nearly 12 times more expensive than the $300 Quest 3S , Apple and Meta are destined to be direct competitors in the XR space at some point in the near future. Heat management, whether it would be tethered or wireless, and what devices it could support are all up for speculation.

The two companies have a great relationship and Apple is realizing that the fact that its headset lacking controllers is a problem for certain types of content, gaming in particular. For this reason, Apple may be working to make PSVR 2 controllers compatible with the Vision Pro. He is very positive about it to happen quite soon.
Schrödinger’s law of the metaverse: the metaverse is at the same time dead and making trillions in 2030. When making predictions about the metaverse, all the market analysts and journalists rush to forecast the biggest market possible for 2030. Apple is always coming next year, every year. The metaverse is dead.
I need to rush out this newsletter episode because otherwise tomorrow Apple launches its headset and no one will read my articles: everyone will be too busy reading “The top 5 features of the Apple headset” or “The 7 reasons why the Apple headset can revolutionize peeling potatoes”. How is Apple going to sell this headset?
Meta promised to put on sale glasses similar to that at an acceptable price before 2030. Apple claims the M4 has a 50% more powerful CPU an d 4 times more powerful GPU than the M2 chipset mounted on the Vision Pro, so an M5 chipset may give the new Vision Pro unprecedented performances for a standalone MR headset.
Its latest report looks to define what we call AR’s “exploring-20’s,” projecting out to 2030. $34 project a $5 billion smartglasses market by 2025, and $34 billion by 2030. The firm believes smartglasses will largely replace smartphones and smartwatches by 2030. 34 Billion Market. It projects 2.89
That’s not how it is today, and by 2030,… Read more. You paid money for something, whether it be a TV, clothes, books, toys, or electronics. You took your item home, and once you paid it off, that thing belonged to you. It was yours. You could do whatever you wanted with it.
ResearchAndMarkets’ recent “ Smart Augmented Reality Glasses—Global Strategic Business Report ” states that MR holographic displays, such as Apple’s Vision Pro, are expected to grow at a 58.4 per cent CAGR until 2030. per cent from 2023 to 2030. Does this Mean Eye and Hand Tracking are the Future of XR Interaction?
Apple already made hardware, so it already had the infrastructure to build it and just added XR people on top of this infrastracture, while Facebook could not). Apple AR headset may have been delayed to 2025. Yes, we have rumors about Apple XR devices even this week. Yes, Apple is working on XR glasses. It’s believable.
billion by 2030, following a market valuation of $8 billion in 2024; the rise in value is due to many factors, notably the general increase of AR location-based consumer and enterprise applications seen over the past four years. per cent from 2023 to 2030. per cent CAGR and 613,300 unit shipments by 2030.
As we examined around Apple’s potential VR headset, VR could establish the necessary supply chain for its eventual AR glasses. What’s Driving Apple’s Rumored VR Play? Because AR is new technology it will benefit from tightly-integrated and purpose-built components (Apple’s longstanding approach ).
This leads us to a timeline for consumer adoption that extends beyond 2030. Apple already committed to doing AR and made clear that the endgame is AR glasses. The plan is to make people keep these glasses on all the time , a bit like people do with Apple Airpods. Maybe in 2030, we may have fashionable AR glasses, who knows.
With the introduction of devices like the Meta Ray-Ban Smart Glasses and the Apple Vision Pro spatial/MR computing headset, interest in VR hardware is increasingly shifting towards upcoming AR/MR technologies. percent from 2023 to 2030. Already, new devices are hitting the market today, and promises for the future are hefty.
It’s unclear if this is apples-to-apples in terms of current/active creators versus lifetime totals. They’ve also been forthright that fully-actualized AR is more of a 2030 thing than a 2025 thing. Specifically, Snap announced the same 2-million lens milestone.

Recent reports show that Apple Vision Pro sales are dropping, only a few months after the spatial computing device became generally available to US customers. But what does it mean for Apple as an XR vendor, and the wider MR and spatial computing market overall? Or is it just a natural result of Apple’s high pricing?
I have been talking with hundreds of people across the industry and have discovered that the changes coming to Apple are deeper than just a VR/AR headset. This is the fourth paradigm shift for Apple. So, what is Apple getting ready to announce over the next year? Eventually, I hear, Apple will even bring 3D to 2D monitors.
Zuck envisions that by 2030 the “metaverse” may be as profitable as advertising for Meta, but it is a prediction that is uncertain and it is expected 8 years from now.

The Quest 3S will be probably marketed as the most affordable mixed reality headset on the market , so Meta may want to show that it can do Spatial Computing like the Apple Vision Pro but at less than one-tenth of the price. Games are a type of content where Meta is very strong while Apple has a lacking ecosystem.

This also aligns with comments that both he and Snap CEO Evan Speigel have separately made about AR’s fully-baked form being more of a 2030 reality. As we’ve examined in light of Apple Glass, smart sunglasses or corrective eyewear compete more in larger markets?—?around But is there also a fly in Apple Glass’ ointment?

AR devices currently don’t have a field-of-view large enough to benefit from foveated rendering, but Goldman said that Lumus will have a device with a field-of-view over 50 degrees before 2030. Goldman cited the Apple Vision Pro, which uses a combination of eye tracking and hand-tracking to go completely controller-free.
Of course for some ad-based tech companies, the current economic situation is not the only problem, but there is another big one which is Apple and its new privacy features embedded into iOS. It’s incredible how we will have the first smart contact lens product before 2030… it seems like hardware coming from a sci-fi movie!
