TL;DR: Apple may have canceled plans for a lower-cost version of the Apple Vision Pro headset, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. The reasons are not provided, but cost reduction may be a factor. Apple still expects to ship 400,000 to 600,000 headsets in 2024, with a second-generation version expected in 2027.

As much as we all talk about the long term vision being a more accessible version, did people actually expect that to happen quickly? The $3500 version they're doing is priced insanely aggressively compared to the rest of the market for the tech in it. It was never going to happen overnight.

"Cancelling" a rumored product that they were at best in the exploratory phase of is pretty disingenuous.
