According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the successor to Apple’s initial ‘Spatial Computer’ – the Vision Pro, is expected to be released during the latter half of 2026.
Apple’s groundbreaking “spatial computer,” the Apple Vision Pro, has garnered praise from both reviewers and consumers. Despite some complaints about its weight and eye strain, anticipation for the next iteration of the Vision Pro is high.
According to Mark Gurman’s insights in Bloomberg’s Power On newsletter, the successor to the Apple Vision Pro may be at least 18 months away, hinting at a potential release in the second half of 2026. Gurman’s observations suggest that while the initial release of the Vision Pro showcased its potential, there are areas for improvement, making it challenging for daily use.
While the wait for the Vision Pro successor may seem lengthy for enthusiasts, it presents an opportunity for Apple to address issues and refine its first-generation mixed reality headset.
However, details about the rumored pocket-friendly Apple Vision Pro, speculated to feature an iPhone chipset and a downgraded display, remain scarce. Additionally, it’s unclear whether the second-generation Vision Pro will be an incremental improvement or a significant leap forward from its predecessor.
Gurman’s previous statements indicate that the team behind the Vision believes it’s several generations away from its ideal form. Despite its limitations, the Vision Pro has sparked interest among Apple fans, with unofficial sales outside the United States reaching as high as $5,000.
