    Apart from the usual keynote and discussions that will go down at the conference, Apple is also expected to hold a mysterious event titled 'Special Event at Apple Park', an all-day event.
    After announcing the date of the WWDC 2023 (Worldwide Developers Conference), Apple has finally released the complete schedule for the upcoming event scheduled to take place on June 5.

    Though the conference is mostly aimed at developers, it is also a platform where Apple will make new announcements related to the new OS versions for iPhone, iPad and Mac.

    Apart from the usual keynote and discussions that will go down at the conference, Apple is also expected to hold a mysterious event titled 'Special Event at Apple Park', an all-day event.

    While the tech giant hasn't yet confirmed anything, speculations suggest that Apple may tease xrOS, the software that will be leading the tech giant's Mixed Reality headset.

    Several tech analysts believe this upcoming software could boost the whole AR/VR industry. The Apple Reality Pro is reportedly the most powerful and advanced XR headsets to ever come out. So we can expect Apple to price it as a higher end somewhere around $3,000 (Rs 2,48,400 approximately).

    As per reports, the Mixed Reality headsets will feature micro OLED displays from Sony and TSMC's dual processors.

    Meanwhile, we also have reasons to believe that a new Mac Pro is also on Apple's mind and is likely to be announced at the event. Apple was expected to tease fans last year, but seems like we might finally get to see a glimpse of the much-awaited Mac Pro which will also be the last product by Apple to not come with the tech giant's in-house chip.

    Apple's iOS 17 is also expected to make a lot of noise at the WWDC 2023. The upcoming software update will bring sideloading to iPhones, which will allow users to download apps outside of its official Apple Store. The move from Apple comes as part of European regulations.
