Apple’s first Vision Pro model did not receive the expected attention due to its high price and usage difficulty. However, according to Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, Apple is now working on a more affordable headset. This new model aims to reduce the processor load in the headset by directing various tasks to iPhones. Therefore, this new headset will primarily consist of a battery, screen, and connectivity tools.

This idea, which had come up before, was one of the many alternatives Apple considered. However, over time, this option started to come to the forefront more. The new Vision model will be able to transfer content from the iPhone, similar to Xreal glasses. Ming Chi-Kuo, known for his accurate predictions in the tech world, stated that the more affordable Vision model has been postponed until after 2027. In this case, the ‘Vision as an iPhone accessory’ model seems to fill this gap.
The new Vision headset will be much more accessible than the Apple Vision Pro. At the same time, by working integrated with the powerful processors of iPhone models, it is predicted that the market launch date of this new product is not too far away.
