Renowned analyst Ming-Chi Kuo is confident that Apple’s highly anticipated AR/VR headset will be unveiled at WWDC in June. He notes that Apple is “well prepared to release” the new device.

He also notes that the release of the headset will benefit Apple’s supply chain partners, boosting the entire VR industry. The most expensive parts of an AR/VR headset are the assembly (exclusive to Luxshare), micro OLED display (exclusive to Sony), dual processor (exclusive to TSMC), chassis (mainly supplied by Everwin Precision), the 12 camera modules (exclusive to Cowell Electronics) and the external power supply from Goertek. Kuo notes that Cowell Electronics will benefit the most, since it has fewer other customers.
