While we arent getting a new Apple Vision Pro model in 2025 as some may have hoped, Bloombergs Mark Gurman reports that Apple is planning a feature-packed release for visionOS 3 this year at WWDC.According to Mark Gurman, a second-generation version of Vision Pro with a new M-series chip is still in the pipeline, as well as cheaper versions of the headset. However, neither of these things will come to fruition in 2025, despite the fact that the current generation headset still uses 2022s M2 chipset, whichll be four years old by the time theres a refresh.However, despite Apples future headset plans sounding somewhat lackluster, its software plans certainly arent.Last month, Apple introduced visionOS 2.4 beta, bringing Apple Intelligence to the headset, as well as a much needed Vision Pro app for iPhone. It also introduces Spatial Gallery, and the company will release it to the public in April.As exciting as those features are, that isnt the end of it. Reportedly, visionOS 3 will be a pretty major update as well although Gurman is unfortunately light on details:All signs are pointing to the companys Vision Products Group shifting its resources to other form factors.But Apple cant just let the Vision Pro die out. It has invested too much andneeds to keep churning outthe devices visionOS updates (the third edition will be a pretty feature-packed release, Im told).While new hardware, especially if it were cheaper, would be very exciting it seems Apples priority is having visionOS be as robust as possible. This move will likely play off in the long run.My favorite Apple accessories on Amazon:Follow Michael:X/Twitter,Bluesky,InstagramAdd 9to5Mac to your Google News feed.
