If you’re happy to believe all of the rumours that have been circulating this year, there’s a lot to show off, too. We’re expecting to see the usual software updates, getting a first look atiOS 17,MacOS 14andWatchOS 10. There’s also expected to be new products, like a15-inch MacBook Air.
Very little information has been revealed about the device. But one thing which is almost universally agreed is the price – the Reality Pro headset is said to cost around $3,000. And, lets face it, that isludicrouslyexpensive. It’s around double the current most expensive model we’ve tested here, and around ten times more costly than the kind of devices most users are familiar with.
Take that with a pinch of salt for now. The information has no given source, and this particular blogger has a chequered history for leaks. Even the image used – which shows the top of a headset branded Apple XR – seems to be out of line with what we’ve seen from other sources.
But it’s not completely out of the realms of possibility. Famously, when the firstiPadwas launched many moons ago, Steve Jobs played into the rumoured pricing as part of the launch. There, theiPadwas expected to launch at $999, but actually started from $499.

I’m not suggesting that the new headset will launch at $1,499, but I could definitely see Tim Cook paying homage to Jobs' style if it has a lower price tag. There’s not long left to wait either – check out our guide onhow to watch WWDCfor more information about tonight’s event.
