Apple might soon finally announce its VR headset

We're big fans of Apple's gorgeous tech, but it's been some time since Apple innovated with the launch of a completely new product. We've had plenty of rumours about things that it might be working on, from foldable phones to an Apple Car. But new rumours suggest that its next launch might be a VR/AR headset.

We've been hearing rumours about an Apple VR/AR device for what seems like an eternity. While Meta, Sony and Microsoft have all released VR or mixed-reality devices, Apple has yet to announce anything official. But a usually reliable tipster thinks that could change very soon (for the best prices on Apple's current range, see our pick of the best Apple Black Friday deals).
