Apple launched Vision Pro at WWDC 2023 event with state-of-the-art features like gesture controls, dual twin 4K microLED virtual reality displays and more. The device carries a hefty price tag of $3,499 (approx. <\/span>2.9 lakh) which, according has been criticized by both consumers and experts. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

But Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has good news for those interested in the technology. According to him, apple<\/a> is already working on a cheaper version of Vision Pro, which could be unveiled in a couple of years.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt $3,500, Apple Inc.’s VisionPro<\/a> isn’t priced to sell. No matter how powerful its technology and compelling its functionality, the product won’t be able to reach its potential or have a real future at seven times the price of its top rival,” writes Gurman in his latest PowerOn newsletter. .<\/p>\n

He further states that Apple is already at work on a cheaper version of the headset that will help it sell more units. “The name Vision Pro even implies there’s a non-Pro version in the works, which one has to assume will be called the Apple Vision or Apple Vision One,” he says. <\/p>\n

What features will the cheaper Apple Vision Pro offer?<\/h2>\n

Explaining how the Cupertino-based company plans to bring down the cost, he says that Apple will probably use lower quality screens, either an iPhone-grade chip or an older Mac chip and fewer cameras for lesser performance. Gurman says that Apple may also ship the affordable AR\/VR headset with a simpler headband design. The device may require AirPods for spatial audio instead of the strap with speakers in the Vision Pro. <\/p>\n

In addition, the company may opt for a physical versus automatic IPD \u2014 distance between eye pupils \u2014 adjustment and remove features like the 3D camera on the affordable version.<\/p>\n

“Combined with a more refined production process, economies of scale and a cheaper frame, I’d imagine Apple could knock several hundred dollars off the price,” he says. <\/p>\n

However, there are a few areas which Gurman believes Apple will not compromise on in a cheaper Apple Vision. These include the external screen known as EyeSight along with eye- and hand-tracking systems. <\/p>\n

When will the cheaper Apple Vision Pro arrive?<\/h3>\n

According to Gurman, Apple is currently planning a release of the cheaper model for as early as the end of 2025, meaning it won’t debut for about two years after the original Vision Pro. <\/p>\n

He also states that the iPhone maker is also developing a second-generation Vision Pro with a faster processor, “indicating it’s intent on a two-product strategy for the device in line with the standard iPhone and iPhone Pro models.” <\/p>\n
