Apple’s highly anticipated Vision Pro headset appears to be facing a significant setback as reports emerge of a substantial cut in production orders. A source revealed to Mashable that Apple is slashing its shipment estimates for the year, signalling a downturn in demand far below initial expectations.
Reportedly, the tech giant had initially set its sights on delivering between 700,000 to 800,000 units of the Vision Pro headset. However, the latest revelation suggests that Apple has scaled back its projections to a modest 400,000 to 450,000 units for the entire year.
This dramatic reduction in forecasted sales indicates a notable decline in consumer interest, especially in the United States, where demand has reportedly plummeted.
The decision to curtail production comes as a surprise, especially considering Apple’s plans to launch the Vision Pro in markets beyond the US later this year.
With demand faltering in its primary market, Apple is adopting a cautious approach towards its global rollout, reflecting a sobering reality for the once-promising headset, as per Mashable. Once hailed as a revolutionary piece of technology, the Vision Pro now appears to be losing its lustre in the eyes of consumers.
What was once the subject of considerable hype and anticipation has now faded into obscurity, signalling a shift in the trajectory of Apple’s ambitious venture into augmented reality.
In response to these developments, Apple is reportedly reevaluating its future plans for the Vision Pro lineup.
Meanwhile, Samsung has announced an expansion of its Galaxy F15 lineup, catering to the diverse needs of consumers. Following its recent launch, the Galaxy F15 initially offered two RAM configurations, both paired with a generous 128GB of storage. Now, the tech giant has unveiled a new variant, boasting 8GB of RAM alongside the existing storage capacity, as per GSM Arena.
Available exclusively in India, the enhanced Samsung Galaxy F15 is now up for grabs at authorised retailers across the country. It is priced at INR 15,999. As part of a limited-time promotion, buyers can also have additional benefits such as bank cashback or upgrade bonus of INR 1,000.
While the introduction of the 8GB RAM variant marks a notable upgrade, the device retains all other specifications unchanged from its predecessors.
The Galaxy F15 continues to feature a vibrant 6.6-inch 90 Hz 1080×2340 Super AMOLED touchscreen, powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ SoC, as per GSM Arena.
It has camera setup comprising a 50 MP main lens, 5 MP ultrawide lens, and 2 MP macro lens. The device has 13 MP selfie camera. It has 6,000 mAh battery that supports 25W wired charging. (With agency reports)
