Despite Apple’s silence on the details, Young revealed intriguing information about the two screens, one for each eye, saying, “Micro OLED specs for Apple’s AR/VR headset.” 

This included a 1.41-inch diagonal size, a targeted contrast ratio of 4000:1 and an ambitious target of over 5000 nits of brightness. 

The brightness level quoted by Young is expected to represent a peak value, noted Apple Insider. 

For instance, Meta Platforms Inc.’s (NASDAQ:META) Quest 2 is reported to have a brightness of 100 nits on its single Fast Switch LCD screen.

However, this figure is not officially confirmed by Sony. It has been a topic of discussion online regarding its perceived excessive brightness. 

Why It’s Important: It was reported that Apple’s newest product category could pit it against Meta, like Cupertino’s 15-year fight with Android-maker Google in the smartphone industry.  

Earlier this month, it was also reported that Apple had lowered the sales estimates for its mixed-reality headsets, even before the expected launch in June. 

The device could be priced at around $3,000.
