Apple ends £3500 Vision Pro Headset production as stock piles up - OC3D
Apple has reportedly ended Vision Pro headset production, with demand for the headset falling sharply. Expect price cuts soon.
At that price, it was only ever going to be an expensive tech demo. Though it will have pushed competitors to push their boundaries to make better headsets with better features. There was a running joke on the meta 'ideas' forum, that if you wanted a new feature, it would be better to post it in the AVP forum, and then meta would copy it. Strangely the meta ideas forum is no longer accessible.gthink that was expected tbh based on what ive seen. maybe able to pick one up cheap?Apple ends £3500 Vision Pro Headset production as stock piles up - OC3D

Not good news, 1 less innovator in the VR space and less competition for Meta. I think you can get 3rd party controllers for it now and play a few games but releasing it without those cut out a big userbase I think. Would love to experience what the display is like.gthink that was expected tbh based on what ive seen. maybe able to pick one up cheap?Apple ends £3500 Vision Pro Headset production as stock piles up - OC3D

I have one and the display is excellent, razer sharp. I also have a Quest 3. I am borrowing a friends MacBook to see what the widescreen monitor view will bring me. I remove the light shield as I use the Annapro 2 head strap to get closer to the lenses. For watching content it’s amazing. I didn’t and wouldn’t pay retail price. I picked one up in mint condition for a lot less.

Spatial photos and videos are excellent too.

It needs a lower price point. Competition will catch up if not already there.

i saw that also, but wasnt able to find any other sources at the time, so wasnt sure how legit.
having the controllers would have heled a lot with usability and software development option

thanks, i think i quickly looked at that articl but only the headline and 1st paragraph at the top
its disappointing how little they are advertising the controller support, it means more apps could be easily developed quickly

Vision Pro 2 teased in Apple code leak, points towards new M5 chip for the next-gen headset
Code accidentally shared by Apple suggests the next Vision Pro will use an M5 chip, but it might not be the only model Apple is working on.

Lighter, more comfortable and cheaper than Apple Vision Pro: Hands-on comparison with the new Vivo Vision MR headset
Weighing just 14 oz, the Vivo Vision has launched in China and is significantly lighter and smaller than the well-known mixed-reality headsets from Apple and Meta. An 8K micro-OLED display supposedly creates a huge virtual IMAX screen, which could make mixed reality interesting for regular users...
www.notebookcheck.net
Apple announced the Vision Pro is getting upgraded to the M5 chip
The upgrade increases performance a bit, they've used this to give the updated headset a 10% higher resolution* in each eye and the refresh rate is also increased to 120hz from 100hz
It's also got a new band and the battery life is 25% better
Same price as the original unfortunately
Available 22 October
* The new headset uses the same 23 million pixel Micro OLED screens, the promised 10% higher resolution is for the internal rendering resolution
