Apple’s Vision Pro headset, which initially received much hype and acclaim upon its debut, has since experienced a significant decline in interest and sales at retail stores. Some stores are now only managing to sell a few units of the once-popular headset each week, a far cry from the high demand it experienced initially.
One of the major factors contributing to the decrease in popularity of the Vision Pro is the lack of practicality in everyday use. Consumers have reported discomfort, difficulty finding compatible apps, and a general sense of isolation when using the headset. Demand for demos of the technology has also decreased significantly, with many scheduled appointments going unattended.
Analysts had predicted that interest in the Vision Pro would wane over time, turning it into a niche product until a more affordable version was released. It seems that this prediction is coming true, as sales have not been significantly boosted even after Apple introduced spatial personas and a headset strap for added comfort.
Furthermore, the lack of support from popular apps like Netflix, Spotify, and YouTube for the Vision Pro has also contributed to its decline. This indicates a lack of interest from developers in creating versions for the headset, further diminishing its appeal to consumers.
Overall, the Vision Pro has all but disappeared from the public conversation, marking a disappointing outcome for Apple’s latest hardware device. Unless significant changes are made to address the concerns of consumers and developers, it seems unlikely that the Vision Pro will regain its former popularity in the near future.
