The reason for the delay: Tests have shown that both hardware and software problems still need to be fixed. However, details have not yet been leaked. Rumor has it that Dan Riccio, Apple's former hardware boss, is increasingly taking over the management of the project in order to eliminate the remaining problems

A June presentation wouldn't mean Apple's mixed reality headset would go on sale immediately. It can still be assumed that it will be launched this year , but we can only speculate about an exact date at the moment.

This is what Apple's mixed reality headset does

Apple's mixed reality headset is said to have an operating system that is strongly based on iOS and is called xrOS. According to reports, a 3D-like view of the iPhone interface is to be expected, displaying well-known apps such as Messages, Mail and Safari. An app store is also to be expected.

In terms of hardware, two 4K virtual reality displays and a large number of AR cameras can be expected. The heart will be an M2 chip. The mixed reality headset could cost around $3,000 at launch .
