Apple’s forthcoming Apple Vision Pro is a revolutionary spatial computer, running visionOS, that seamlessly blends digital content with the physical world, while allowing users to stay present and connected to others. Bloomberg News’ Mark Gurman this week looks at how Apple can bring down costs in future visionOS spatial computers.

Since the Vision Pro's $3,499 price is thought to be at or near the cost to make it, Gurman speculates that Apple could replace the twin 4K microLED displays and M2 Apple silicon chip with cheaper alternative components, and…

Coming away from all the press coverage and the demonstration videos that Apple released for its Vision Pro headset, most people would be forgiven for not realizing that there is an optional additional strap for the device that goes over the head. Still from Apple's WWDC keynote video showing over-the-head strap in use The additional strap is presumably used to better disperse weight and/or keep the headset from being easily dislodged when the wearer is moving around.
