Apple's Mixed-Reality Headset Launch Faces Delays and High Stakes.

Apple's "Reality Pro" AR/VR headset is still set to debut at WWDC on June 5, but mass production won't begin until December, according to sources. The headset will use a mixed-reality approach and feature a ski goggle-style design and an external battery pack. However, Apple is anticipating production issues and some employees and suppliers have questioned whether the rollout could be delayed given the challenges with integrating the headset with new software and the broader market. The expected $3,000 price tag is also out of the realm for many consumers.
