Apple is still deciding on the displays for its expected lower-cost Apple Vision Pro, but is close to settling on a lower resolution screen that is brighter and also thinner than in the current headset.

Apple’s Vision Pro with the M5 chip is expected to launch in 2025, offering enhanced performance. The new model may replace the current M2 version.

An upgraded Vision Pro headset is rumored for release in 2025, but will it address the headset's biggest flaw?

For at least five years, Apple has been researching how it can measure the health of an Apple Watch wearer non-invasively and conveniently, in research that could be applied to the Apple Vision Pro, too.

Despite the Atlas initiative, there's no indication that Apple's smart glasses will hit the market any time soon, so it's likely that the Vision Pro — or perhaps an upgraded version with a new chip — will remain the company's only headset for the next couple of years.

That’s according to respected industry analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who posted on X that there will be a new, M5-powered Vision Pro launching in 2025. However, it's going to be the only head-mounted device Apple will release in the near future – Kuo says that the cheaper model has been "delayed beyond 2027".

The headset will likely be priced between $1,000 and $1,500 competing with both the Apple Vision Pro and the Meta Quest 3.

Apple's marketing chief Greg Joswiak today said the Vision Pro will be launching in South Korea and the United Arab Emirates on Friday,

The first beta of visionOS 2.2, Apple added wide and ultra-wide modes to Mac Virtual Display. This is the most important Vision Pro feature.

Apple is reportedly preparing a new Vision Pro with M5 for 2025. Ultimately it’s positive news for the future, but it also creates a dilemma.
