As per the leak, Jon Prosser from Front Page Tech states that Apple will be marketing the AR glasses as Apple Glass. Moreover, he also states that the baseline model of AR Glasses will start from $499 with extra charges for prescription lenses.

As for availability, Apple will announce e Apple Glass in Q4 of this year or Q1 of 2021. The initial announcement of the glasses was scheduled to take place during the Apple Watch Series 6 and the iPhone 12 launch event in September.

Despite the announcement to be made later this year or early next year, the product will go on sale in Q4 of 2021 or Q1 of 2022. So there is a year-long wait between the announcement and the release.

As for the design, the AR glasses will miss the camera for privacy concerns but it will feature a LiDAR scanner. Moreover, it will be charged wirelessly via a stand provided with it. Furthermore, Apple will add displays in both lenses of the glass and the Starboard UI will be controlled via gestures in front of the device.
