Production difficulties and the complex design of Apple's $3,499 Vision Pro mixed reality headset have reportedly caused Apple to scale back its internal sales target of 1 million units sold in 2024 as it is worried it won't be able to make enough of its newest device.
The original intention was for there to be a second, wireless compute device. Jony Ive ended up vetoing that before he left Apple. I would’ve loved to see what the headset would’ve been in that form.
I say make a cheaper version that just connects to the iPhone or a Mac the way the Pro connects to a battery pack.
I agree, the core technology here should be the display, everything else is already figured out and can be externally connected.
