. The analyst is back with a more detailed look at the current augmented reality and virtual reality industry, as plenty of Apple rivals are developing their own next-gen smart glasses wearables.in January 2023, a prediction that’s in line with his previous remark. But don’t expect to buy the first Apple AR/VR headset in stores come January.rather than a Twitter thread to detail his view of the VR industry.
In previous days, Kuo pointed out on Twitter more than once that Facebook is slowing down its investments in its next-gen VR headsets, which could lead to launch delays. That was just days after Mark Zuckerberg demoed some of the technologies Meta is developing for its future AR/VR headsets. 3. The order cut is mainly in 2H22. Given Meta reducing hardware investments & economic recession risk, I cut my prediction for 2H22 Meta VR/headset shipments by 40-50% & believe shipment of Meta headsets originally scheduled in/after 2024 would be postponed.Kuo further elaborated on Meta’s interest in the AR/VR space in the blog post, saying that the company has been selling VR headsets at a loss in recent years.
As a result, Kuo said that Meta’s intention to slow development would not hinder the VR industry’s growth.Moreover, Meta isn’t alone in developing AR/VR headsets. Besides the new entrant Apple, we have established players in the industry. The list includes HTC, Microsoft, Sony, and Valve. Then there’s also VR headset maker Pico, which is a leading brand in China.
