Apple Vision Pro is still months away, but it seems there’s a more affordable version already in the works.
Did you see the WWDC keynote? It was long, detail-packed and it culminated in Apple’s “One More Thing”—the phrase it reserves for its biggest new releases. It was for Apple Vision Pro, a mixed-reality headset that’s far in advance of rival devices.
In one way, this is not at all surprising: Apple thinks ahead and will have had a roadmap in place for years for its newest product. But a cheaper model is more of a surprise. Normally, the route is upwards: AirPods came first, then AirPods Pro, and iPad Pro and iPhone Pro also appeared some way down the line.
And while initial expectations of the headset were skeptical, practically every person who actually tried the Vision Pro on were blown away by it. Gurman says savings could come from stripping out speakers and relying on separately-purchased AirPods for audio, which I think is possible. But his suggestion that Apple will switch to “lower quality screens” seems less likely to me. The displays are a big part of what makes Vision Pro irresistible and I can’t see the company compromising here.
