Apple has reportedly stopped development on a second generation of the Vision Pro in favor of working on a slimmed-down more affordable version of the headset.According to The Information, Apple hopes to release the less expensive version of the headset by the end of next year.According to the site, Apple is aiming to make the new headset come in at a price point of around $1500, which should help Apple compete with other products such as the Meta Quest.The Vision Pro currently retails for $3500, which puts it out of reach for many would-be buyers.According to The Information Apple is currently struggling with creating the stripped-down model in part because it’s struggling to find ways to cut down on the cost of the device without taking significantly away from the experience of using it.
