According to the information provided by many different sources, the Apple Reality Pro mixed reality headset will have a high price of $3,000. The biggest reason behind this price is the special displays used in the product. Ross Young, the market’s most reliable source when it comes to display technologies, announced today that the upcoming model will feature two microOLED-based high-quality displays for two eyes (4K per eye).

According to the source, these displays have a full 4,000 ppi and a maximum brightness of 5,000 nits. These ambitious displays, previously reported to be prepared by Sony, will bring a glass-like image to people. With 4,000 ppi, there will definitely not be a pixel-counting situation. Pushing the limits, 5,000 nits seems to offer an impressive HDR experience. The name that has given the most information about the product so far has been Mark Gurman. According to the source, the headset will have a rich application infrastructure.
According to Gurman, Apple has prepared a wide range of apps for the device, focusing on sports, gaming, and health. Gurman also says that Apple plans to adapt iPad apps for the headset. On an app-by-app basis, Apple apps such as Safari, Calendar, Contacts, Home, Files, Messages, Notes, Photos, Music and Reminders will be optimized specifically for the device. It is also stated that the product can run multiple apps at the same time and detect rooms. In this way, special applications can be set for rooms. For example, when going to the office, business applications will be automatically opened or highlighted.
According to Gurman, the Apple Reality Pro mixed reality headset will be powered by an external battery that will stay in the pocket. This battery, which we have heard about before, will have a special magnetic connection port. Gurman also states that the product will also have a USB-C port for data transfer. The battery, which is reported to be the size of an iPhone, will make the headset lighter by being external. It will also provide two hours of use.
