0:00
and talk about the cheaper Vision Pro
0:03
that apple is working on if they go this
0:06
Griffin I think it's going to be it's
0:09
going to be the death nail for the
0:11
cheaper Vision Pro I don't think
0:13
anyone's gonna go well the good news is
0:14
it is also a rumor so uh what are we
0:16
talking about here Apple reportedly
0:17
wants to launch a cheaper arvr Vision
0:22
n107 thrilling name as soon as late 2025
0:26
the company's Engineers are struggling
0:27
to reduce costs without affecting the
0:29
headset key features Mark Erman in his
0:32
power on newsletter claims apple is
0:34
testing narrowing the field of view on
0:36
the cheaper Vision headset you know
0:38
certainly the displays have got to be
0:40
one of the most if not the most
0:42
expensive component inside it supposedly
0:44
the company is also considering
0:46
requiring a tethered iPhone or Mac for
0:49
the headset to work the move will help
0:52
Apple remove a lot of chips and
0:53
components helping reduce the overall
0:57
costs uh I a few people have been
1:01
suggesting that like you know I I saw
1:03
person possibly on Twitter just saying
1:05
like yeah why can't I just plug it into
1:07
my my Vision Pro into my iPhone and have
1:09
it do all the computing power and then I
1:10
don't have to have a second battery in
1:12
my pocket but like I I have a hard time
1:16
imagining that working very well first
1:18
of all because it really limits the
1:21
lifespan of that headset it requires you
1:24
to have a new phone and simply the fact
1:26
that like the vision Pro's battery is
1:28
gigantic huge like the vision Pro's
1:30
battery is like two or three times
1:32
bigger than the iPhone itself which is
1:34
only like you know 40% battery by volume
1:37
so that thing would get terrible battery
1:38
life and you know after an hour of using
1:41
it then you suddenly have a dead Vision
1:43
Pro and a dead phone so I can't imagine
1:46
that being a very good experience
1:47
whatsoever um so hopefully that's not
1:50
the route they go but on the other hand
1:52
I have a hard time seeing like what else
1:53
they could really cut to make it cheaper
1:56
without making it you know kind of a
1:59
crummy head that's no better than the
2:01
meta Quest we already explained this to
2:04
you what what's up ditch the eyesight
2:09
on that's right that's at least a
2:11
thousand savings right there if if they
2:14
uh if they make you tether the iPhone
2:16
and you got the battery you can have one
2:17
in each back pocket two separate cables
2:20
coming out of that thing and then then
2:22
you won't be you know thrown off balance
2:24
by that really heavy battery pack yeah
2:27
the external display is probably a big
2:28
cost because it's like the fancy
2:30
lenticular thing but you know it's that
2:33
still doesn't get you from $3,500 to
2:35
$1,500 um anyways while a few years away
2:39
from launch Apple is also working on the
2:41
Vision Pro successor code named n109 the
2:44
existing prototype looks similar to the
2:46
current model and features a faster
2:47
processor improved external cameras both
2:49
of those would be uh excellent to have
2:52
especially the the cameras like the
2:54
quality is not perfect um apple is
2:57
exploring ways to make the second gen
2:58
Vision Pro lighter and more comfortable
3:00
to wear that sounds like it's the
3:01
product I'm interested in um whether I
3:04
can afford to buy another $3500 headset
3:08
just like three years after the first
3:09
one uh is isn't looking very possibly
3:12
very likely but you know maybe I'll buy
3:13
the vision Pro 3 a previous report claim
3:16
division Pro 2 might not arrive until
3:17
the end of 2026 so a lot could change by
3:19
then Apple has also quote renewed
3:22
efforts to develop its AR glasses but
3:25
they are still in the early stages of
3:26
development and are unlikely to be ready
3:28
in the next few years
3:31
remember when proster told us that they
3:32
were making Steve Jobs Heritage Edition
3:35
glasses oh yeah who could
3:38
forget dude I don't know if he just got
3:41
trolled or what happened but like seeing
3:45
Griffin it's this fly that's flying
3:47
around office it's just a very
3:49
aggressive fly yeah yeah that's an Ohio
3:52
siiz fly too that's Buckeye fly it's
3:55
going straight for your corneus I mean
3:57
seeing that seeing how large
4:00
The Vision Pro is just to make it work I
4:04
mean the idea that you would ever be
4:06
able to fit anything like that into the
4:09
size of like glasses that look like
4:11
glasses that Steve Jobs used to wore
4:13
used to wear is just totally
4:15
Preposterous like like it just never was
