NEW YORK—Microsoft has announced the initial price and approximate availability of its HoloLens augmented reality headset.
As previously implied by CEO Satya Nadella, the first HoloLens will be a developer-oriented unit that Microsoft is calling the "HoloLens Development Edition." From today, developers will be able to apply online for the opportunity to buy a unit. Those units won't be cheap, either: the asking price is $3,000 (£2,000), with units expected to ship during the first quarter of 2016.
The hardware is going to be comparable to the units demonstrated earlier this year, though Microsoft says that it has no new information to share regarding specific specs or capabilities. We learned earlier this year that the hardware had an x86 processor, 2GB RAM, 802.11ac, and a 60Hz refresh rate, so we'd expect the Development Edition to be similar.
