Ming-Chi Kuo: Apple AR / VR headset gets 96-watt PSU like 14-inch MacBook Pro

Chinese company analyst TF International Securities Ming-Chi Kuo has shared new details about Apple's AR / VR headset.

What told

So, according to Kuo, the novelty will receive two chipsets. One will be built using a 5-nanometer process technology, and the other - using a 4-nanometer process. Both SoCs will be manufactured by TSMC. According to the source, the power of the device is comparable to the M1 chip in Mac computers. To power the helmet, a 96 W unit will be put in the kit with the gadget. By the way, the 14-inch MacBook Pro has exactly the same charging.

It is also known that the novelty will be able to quickly switch between VR and AR. In addition, the helmet is credited with a Sony Micro-OLED screen, many sensors and support for Apple TV + and Apple Arcade branded services.

The release of the gadget should take place at the end of this or early next year. For a novelty, they will ask for about 2000-3000 US dollars.
