Apple could be "several months" away from introducing a mixed-reality headset, according to a report Wednesday from Bloomberg.

Various reports have predicted the headset, which would be Apple's first major new device since 2015, the report noted. Earlier in the March, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo gave 2022 for a timeline. As CNET's Scott Stein noted, these rumors have been circulating for several years. 

Apple didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
