Anyone who's been paying attention to Apple’s Vision Pro headset over the last couple of years knows that its customers have been crying out for a lighter, more affordable version. The current model hasn’t sold anywhere close to the numbers Apple was hoping for, thanks in large part to its weight and cost. It’s clear that carrying on as normal simply isn’t going work.
And yet it looks like that’s exactly what Apple is planning to do. According to Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, Apple has shelved plans for a lighter and more affordable Vision Pro – at least temporarily – while it works on a set of top-secret augmented reality (AR) glasses. And with no release date in sight for the slimmed-down Vision Pro, it puts Apple’s headset into dangerously choppy waters.
