When is the Apple title coming out? Apple's long-awaited title will finally be unveiled at WWDC in June.

When is the Apple Title Coming?

Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),'s long-awaited mixed reality title is reportedly planned to debut on June 5 during the Worldwide Developers Conference at its campus in Cupertino, California. This will be the newest product Apple has announced since the Apple Watch in 2015.

Bloomberg reports that the headset, which is said to be called Reality Pro, will be the big focus of the event for Apple with the emergence of the headset and the xrOS operating system. The Apple headset will feature inside-out tracking with dedicated hand and eye controls, VR Facetime, and AR/VR versions of core Apple apps.”

The headset is also said to have a portable battery that will fit in your pocket to reduce its weight.

Like new Apple products, the headset is said to have a price tag of as high as $3.000. It will feature a pair of high-resolution displays as well as a set of external cameras, but details on the exact specs have mostly been the subject of speculation.

In terms of context, our pick for the best VR headset is the Meta Quest 349, which retails for as cheap as $2. Even the most expensive gaming headset, the HTC Vive Pro 2, will cost around $1.400, which is roughly half the reported cost of Apple's new headset.

Apple is said to be working on a cheaper headset called the Reality One, but details are sparse. Apple is making a big leap forward in AR and VR, with its biggest rival, Meta, once again announcing massive layoffs.

We first heard of the mixed reality headset when news broke of the launch of more consumer-friendly AR glasses, which were withdrawn for unspecified technical reasons.

Price has always been the biggest barrier to entry for VR and AR titles. We recently reviewed the impressive Sony PS VR2 headset, and our biggest complaint is that it currently doesn't have games to match the PC, and it's pretty expensive.

So at the $3,000 price Apple will have to be pretty convincing to sell this title. The New York Times recently reported that some Apple employees were not very fond of the new headset, calling it a "fix-seeking solution".

So what do you think about this product? Pano
