There will be a cheaper model and it will arrive soon

We are only a few weeks away from the arrival of Apple Vision Pro in Europe. Start your leave the United States a year later of your presentation. Additionally, with the arrival of visionOS 2, Apple continues to take steps to bring more features and applications to the operating system. Just like Apple calendars, We are used to devices being renewed once a year or a year and a half. That’s why many of us are wondering when the Apple Vision Pro 2 will arrive.

Apple reorganizes current Apple Vision Pro 2 team to return to the project later

As reported by the media “The Information” via direct contact in the development line, Apple has reportedly changed the development priority of Apple Vision Pro 2. The priority of this second generation has been lowered and fewer and fewer employees were assigned to the project.

Additionally, Apple would have communicated to one of your suppliers which paused the work of the second generation in favor of creating a more economical model. This leak from “The Information” coincides with Mark Gurman’s predictions earlier this year, in which he stated that Apple Vision Pro 2 had been delayed until late 2026 for focus on a low-end model.

This reorganization of the teams does not paralyze the project. The reallocation of economic and human resources aims to pprioritize and focus on a lighter, cheaper version of Apple Vision. So the path to an Apple Vision Pro 2 will require more research and development time. At the same time, with a more accessible model,visionOS platform will gain more userswill be more popular and therefore have more uses for the next professional generation of Apple Vision.

Development continues with a cheaper Apple Vision

Apple will reportedly begin work on a cheaper device similar to the Vision Pro in 2022 under the codename “N109.” Apple’s goal is to sell this model for a price similar to that of a high-end iPhoneor less than 2000 dollars.

Apple has been working hard to find a way to reduce the costs of the current Apple Vision Pro for its budget model. without sacrificing too many features. This is why the launch of these cheaper Apple Visions will take place at the end of 2025. Apparently, Apple wants to keep the two current Apple Vision Pro displays in its cheapest model. Apparently where they cut will be cameras, speakers and a headband or a simpler fixing method.

A different release schedule and a product that launched directly with the last name “Pro”

As you read in the title of the article, this is a good news for most users that we can access an Apple Vision model at practically half the price. This strategy is similar in the rest of Apple products, with a Pro range in most of its categories:

• iPhone 15 / iPhone 15 Pro
• MacBook Air/MacBook Pro
• iPad Air/iPad Pro
• AirPods / AirPods Pro
• Is it Apple Vision? /Apple Vision Pro

Apple Vision Pro is the first product presented as the most high-end and has all the logic in the world that they want a “below” product with lower price and features. The true potential of Apple Vision Pro lies in its ability to create productive environments and overlay them on our real lives.

If we look at the strategy of the iPad Air and iPad Pro, Both devices manage to do essentially the same thing.. The iPad Pro has different unlocking methods, a better quality screen, better speakers, processor… This is where Apple would look at what can be removed and what cannot be removed so that the the initial experience is the same with Apple Vision Pro and Apple Vision “to dry”. Maybe speakers without spatial audio, cameras that don’t take spatial photos…

Examine possible release dates, Here’s what the schedule would look like based on the latest leaks and the rumors we have had in recent months.

If we look at the past, the The Apple Watch Series 2 also took about two years to arrive. According to this schedule, there would be two years between Apple Vision Pro and the arrival of a cheaper Apple Vision. A more than reasonable, and even short, deadline for a product of such magnitude. Concerning Apple Vision Pro 2, it would arrive four years after its first generation and It is expected that with more than significant changesas happened with the iPad and iPad 2, collecting all user needs and having much more time to develop a noticeable change.

Furthermore, we must take into account that Apple Vision Pro must be expanded to more territories first. Today they reach Europe and Asia, but there are still countries like USA, Italy and all of Latin America. So it’s understandable that the launch of an Apple Vision Pro 2 would be delayed until late 2026, since many of these countries will see the current Apple Vision Pro arrive throughout 2025.
