As Apple’s annual WWDC approaches, we get more details on the company’s mixed reality headset. Mark Gurman’s latest newsletter details the MR headset battery and charger. The MR headphones’ battery pack will reportedly be the size of an iPhone but a bit thicker, and will charge via USB-C. It is said to look like the MagSafe battery pack for iPhone that debuted in 2021.

Gurman describes that the battery pack is connected with a cable that ends in a proprietary round connector and connects to the earpiece via magnets. What’s interesting is that the connector will swivel so users can lock it into the headset by twisting it clockwise ensuring it stays in place during use. The other end of the cable will be attached to the battery pack and is not removable.
Gurman also expects the headset to run all existing first-party mixed reality iPad apps, as well as “hundreds” of third-party apps without the need for developers to rework their own apps. He will also have a new wellness app focused on meditation. Apple’s MR headphones are said to launch with a price tag of $3,000.
