Gurman: Apple Vision Pro head straps need to be purchased separately

CTOnews.com, June 25, in today's Power On newsletter, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reported that Apple has opened the Vision Pro headshow test to more employees in the company after the unveiling of the WWDC. However, there is a usage problem in the test-weight.

The Vision Pro head is not light, and the device is made of aluminum and glass, so Apple has developed a headband to help reduce the weight of the user's face. But Gurman said Apple is not considering including the headband in the box, but requires users to buy it.

The price of the Vision Pro head display starts at $3499 (CTOnews.com Note: currently about 25158 yuan), even if the price is so high, Apple is not willing to give a bandage. Considering the importance of headband, this accessory is expected to become another major revenue-generating project for Apple.

Gurman said testing and user research for Vision Pro had expanded to several thousand this month. Although currently only senior employees can bring the head show home, "that is expected to change soon".

Gurman also said that although the hardware of the head display has been completed, work on the software continues until it is perfect when it goes on sale "early next year."

At the same time, it is reported that Apple has also transferred some employees to develop a second-generation head display, including a second-generation Vision Pro with updated specifications and a new cheaper version.
