The Magic Leap 2 is an optical see-through head-mounted display that is developed by Magic Leap. It is marketed to enterprise users, but is stunted due to its difficulty of application development and closed hardware that doesn't allow for custom operating systems to be loaded. General purchase availability started in 2022.

The Magic Leap 2 was released under CEO Peggy Johnson, who became CEO of Magic Leap after Rony Abovitz stepped down from the position.

One of the features of the Magic Leap 2 is that the display can dim.

The Magic Leap 2 has a taller aspect ratio and larger vertical field of view than the Magic Leap 1. The Magic Leap 2 has one of the highest fields of view, if not the highest, of any optical see-through head mounted display that has been produced.

It is wired into a puck that could be mounted on a waist belt. The puck is the main compute of the unit. It runs a derivative of the Android operating system.
