After several information leaks that revealed not only the specifications but also the problems of the new Apple headphones, here comes the price that the equipment will have online.
And the news may surprise some fans. Apparently, Apple headphones will be priced at more than two thousand dollars, that is, they can cost more than 1,750 euros.
The high price of the headphones may be due to the M1 Pro chip
Lately the news coming from Apple is not very encouraging. All because they realize that the new Augmented and Virtual Reality viewer is suffering from overheating problems and also in the camera software that can cause a delay in its launch.
It was also already known that the new headphones would not be the most affordable equipment, in terms of price, of the Cupertino company. But now the journalist Mark Gurman of the Bloomberg agency advances with a value for one of the most anticipated gadgets of the year.
According to Gurman, the Apple headphones will cost just over two thousand dollars, or 1,750 euros. Traditionally, the Cupertino company bets on a higher value of its products, which is one of the reasons why it is so profitable.
But the well-known journalist advances that the high price of the headphones could also be due to the fact that Apple will equip the headphones with the expensive M1 Pro chip, or with a similar, equally expensive solution. Of course, this option will be reflected in the final cost for the user.
Screens with 8K resolution and lenses adjusted to the user’s vision capacity
Mark Gurman has been quite prolific in revealing the specs of the new headphones and has moved on as they will be equipped with 8K displays and prescription lenses, which can be changed to suit the user’s vision ability.
It is quite possible that the headphones also integrate the latest audio technologies. All because it is being designed to be used in games, at a leisure level, and for demanding jobs in terms of video and sound.
Apparently, the game component is gaining enormous importance for Apple, which could include two processors in the headphones, precisely to direct one of these to a powerful cooling system.
Apple is also expected to partner with other companies to provide entertainment content that could come from major US movie studios. This could even be a killer buying argument.
What will Apple call its new headphones?
Mark Gurman also advances with the possible names that the hedaset will have. Apparently, the hypotheses are on the table: Apple Vision, Apple Reality, Apple Sight/iSight, Apple Lens or even Apple Goggles.
Apple is expected to unveil the long-awaited headphones at its WWDC event in June. However, recent news about overheating and camera issues may push the reveal date back, and in the worst case, the head game may not arrive until 2023.
