New Report Suggests Apple Augmented Reality Glasses Could Ship in 2020

For the most part, analysts have been expecting Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) to launch a set of augmented reality (AR) glasses sometime between 2019 and 2020. Well, Bloomberg is out with a fresh report this morning that corroborates that potential timeline, saying that the Mac maker is indeed targeting 2020 to ship the forthcoming AR product, while the underlying technology should be ready around 2019.

Apple is developing a new chip and an entirely new operating system to power the device, according to the report, and the AR glasses will have a dedicated display. The 2020 target ship date is "very aggressive" and could easily change. It's worth noting that the iPhone X was originally planned for 2018, but Apple was able to pull that forward to 2017.
