Apple Develops Lighter, Cheaper Vision Pro Successor with Possible 2028 LaunchPreviousNext

Apple is reportedly developing a redesigned Vision Pro headset, codenamed N224, aiming to make it lighter and more affordable by exploring new materials and externalizing some hardware, similar to Meta's approach. The project remains in early stages with uncertain launch prospects, possibly not arriving before 2028 or 2029. Meanwhile, Apple continues to focus on display-less smart glasses, with senior engineers committed to advancing this category alongside mixed-reality efforts.
