The concept of the metauniverse has become popular recently, and Apple may also take action in this regard. On November 26, Guo Mingxuan, an analyst familiar with Apple's supply chain, released a new investment report, which predicted that Apple would launch a headset AR device in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Guo Mingxuan said in the report that Apple will launch this headworn AR device, which has the following major differences compared with competitors:

• Mac level chip performance and computing power

• Can operate independently without relying on iPhone or Mac

• Support a wide range of applications rather than specific applications

This report lists the general specifications of Apple's AR devices, saying that it will be equipped with a low order processor for sensor related tasks and a high order processor, whose performance is similar to the M1 chip used by the current Mac; it will also be equipped with two 4K Micro OLED display screens provided by Sony (which may also support VR) and at least six to eight optical modules.

According to the report, Apple's goal is that AR can replace iPhone in 10 years, and based on the current 1 billion active iPhone users, it is estimated that the sales goal may be to sell at least 1 billion AR devices in 10 years.

The news that Apple will launch AR related products has been circulating for several years. Last year, it was reported that Apple would release an AR glasses to be used with iPhone in 2021, but in 2021The year has almost passed. Obviously, we haven't seen any action of Apple on this. Considering the accuracy of Guo Mingxuan's past information about Apple, this news now indicates that the legendary Apple AR is not far from landing.
