No mixed reality headset at Apple’s WWDC , scheduled for June 6. The well-known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo makes a single voice with the equally well-known Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, who had already expressed his concerns about the hypothesis that Apple would have at least anticipated something at the developer conference. In short, no viewer and no realityOS , the operating system that should manage the new super expensive gadget from Apple.
No anticipation for a very simple reason, in Kuo’s opinion: since the AR / VR headset will arrive in 2023, making details of a project so far from debut publicly available would mean giving a considerable advantage to the competition , especially to the most cheeky, who could be there to take notes to appropriate one of the solutions the team has created.
Apple’s competitors – wrote Kuo in a tweet – are eager to learn about the specifications and design of the operating system for the mixed reality viewer. I’m sure that if Apple announces the headset and its operating system at WWDC, competitors will be happy to copy Apple’s excellent ideas to get to market ahead of Apple’s 2023 launch.
The Bloomberg reporter, very knowledgeable about Apple matters, in responding to a tweet from a lawyer pointing out that the suspicious registration date underlying Ortolani’s theory actually stemmed from regulatory obligations , supported the thesis of coincidence . “Maybe it will come anyway – tweeted Gurman – but it is a coincidence” .
After all, it is now clear that in Apple’s initial plans there was the debut of the mixed reality viewer in 2022, so it is possible that the registration of the trademark in advance was linked to that timeline now skipped due to technical difficulties and some indecision about the nature of the project .
