Image credit : AppleInsider Palmer Lucky, the founder of Oculus, reportedly gave Apple's mixed-reality headset his seal of approval, describing it as "so good." With little evidence that anyone outside of the firm has actually used it, the Apple VR and AR headgear has long been rumored to be a high-quality take on the idea. A prominent figure in the virtual reality industry may have seen or used the device, according to a quick tweet. Palmer Luckey, the founder of Oculus, just posted one comment on the subject on Sunday: "The Apple headset is so good." Despite being succinct and conclusive, Luckey doesn't elaborate at all in replies or subsequent tweets. Before Oculus was acquired by Facebook in 2014, Luckey played a role in shaping the state of VR headset technology as the company's founder. Luckey claimed during his tenure at Facebook—now Meta—that Oculus wouldn't add Mac compatibility for its Rift headset until it unveiled a "good computer" that gave high-end GPUs priority.

Since it is likely to be the main focus of WWDC 2023 this June, it might not be long before Apple discloses what the real headset will look like or do.
