Apple has been working on a mixed-reality headset for some time now, and the company seems to be all set to officially launch the device in the coming months.
Now that the device is expected to debut at WWDC, details about the product are now surfacing online. In the latest development, it is being claimed that the headset will have a magnetic cable for charging.
The report coming from Mark Gurman of Bloomberg in the Power On newsletter says that the upcoming product, which may be named Reality Pro or Reality One, will have two ports — USB-C for data transfers and a new proprietary connector for charging.
The power source, which we expect to be similar to MagSafe, will have a round tip that magnetically attaches to Apple’s headset and after inserting the cable, it can be rotated to lock it into place.
Recently, it was reported that Apple’s mixed reality headset will have an external power supply as the company is concerned about the heating issue which may impact the comfort while wearing the device.
The power supply is about the size of the iPhone and can reportedly offer a battery life of up to two hours on a single charge. While not much is confirmed yet, the device is expected to be priced at around $3,000 when it launches in a few months.
