Apple's mixed-reality headset will come with some top-notch hardware, a new report claims. 

According to The Information, which claims it has seen Apple's internal images of a late-stage prototype of the device, the headset will have two 8K displays, advanced eye-tracking tech, and more than a dozen cameras for tracking hand movements.
