Apple's Cheaper, Lighter Vision Pro Successor May Not Launch Until 2028

Apple is working on a lighter, cheaper successor to its Vision Pro headset, but the device may not launch until 2028 or 2029. Reports suggest the project is on hold until Apple solves challenges of weight and cost. Meanwhile, Apple has shifted focus to smart glasses, targeting a release by late 2027. The Vision Pro successor is separate from the cancelled “Vision Air” project, and Apple’s wearable computing strategy now prioritises smart glasses in the near term.
