Vivo's Mixed Reality Headset: Expected Design And Features
The Vivo Vision MR headset reportedly sports a ski goggle-style design with a black glass front and a blue headband. The design closely resembles Apple's Vision Pro — which is priced at $3,499 (around Rs 3 lakh) — suggesting that Vivo is aiming for a premium look and feel.
The device also features a thick headband, seemingly designed to provide a secure fit. Images of the device indicate the presence of camera sensors both inside the front glass and within the body. These are expected to support motion tracking and hand gesture recognition. These would likely improve the augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) experience.
The images also suggest that the Vivo Vision might feature a separate battery pack, much like the Apple Vision Pro. This battery could connect through a USB Type-C port and would likely need to be carried while using the headset.
The Boao Forum, often regarded as the Asian equivalent of the Davos Summit, serves as a platform for key discussions on technology, economic policies and innovation. This year's edition also featured developments in 6G technology and a preview of Vivo's upcoming X200 Ultra smartphone.
Speaking at a session titled ‘vivo Release Moment,' Hu Baishan, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Vivo, emphasised China's mobile industry as a huge force in technological evolution. Hu said, the mobile phone industry is a “microcosm” of China's tech innovation. He further highlighted Vivo's position as the leading domestic smartphone brand for the past four years, serving over 500 million users across 60 global markets.
