Depending on who you ask, the Apple VR/AR headset is either going to reshape VR headsets forever or be an expensive disaster when it debuts at WWDC 2023. Turns out, if you ask Apple, they’re not exactly expecting sales of the headset to skyrocket.

At least, that’s if this most recent report is believed to be true. A new TrendForce report suggests that the expected production for the first year is now less than 100,000 units. That’s a massive downgrade in expectations for the Apple mixed reality headset — possibly dubbed the Apple Reality Pro — which just a few days ago was projected to sell 900,000 units over its lifetime.
