Apple Contemplates Developing Cheaper Vision Device Powered by iPhone
Apple is reportedly 'seriously considering' developing a cheaper Apple Vision device that offloads all of the computing power to your iPhone, essentially creating a headset with primarily displays and battery. This product would be similar to other products on the market like the Xreal glasses, which show content from your iPhone through the displays of the glasses. Earlier this morning, Ming Chi-Kuo reported that Apple's cheaper Vision headset has been delayed beyond 2027, so it's highly possible that this 'Vision as an iPhone accessory' product could come in place of it. Gurman says this product 'would reinforce the iPhone as the center of [Apple's] product ecosystem.' This product would also likely be far more accessible than Apple Vision Pro, and with how much overhead our iPhones A18 chips have, it could make quite a bit of sense in the not-so-distant future.
