Rumors about the second generation of the Apple Vision Pro, the first spatial computer from the Cupertino-based company, are starting to emerge. How long will we have to wait to see the Apple Vision Pro 2? Let's see what the rumors say and what we know so far about the next generation of this revolutionary device.
Apple Vision Pro 2: How long until its launch?
The Apple Vision Pro has redefined the virtual and augmented reality experience, attracting not only technology and Apple enthusiasts but also those who, until now, had remained on the sidelines of such devices and advancements. And just a month after the launch of the first Apple Vision Pro (which we have already seen on the inside), the anticipation for its successor grows stronger.
According to recent publications by industry analyst Mark Gurman, "Apple is likely at least 18 months away from launching a second generation of the Vision Pro." This time frame may be somewhat longer than what we have seem with other Apple products, where generational updates tend to follow an annual rhythm, but it is more than acceptable for a first generation.
Keep in mind that while the hardware of the Vision Pro might require extra time for its development and refinement, the visionOS software is ready to go through multiple updates that will improve its operation and expand its capabilities. Something we are already seeing in the first betas of version 1.1 of the system and that will continue happening until and after the presentation of new features at WWDC 2024 in June.
Despite the challenges that come with first-generation products, especially those as innovative as the Apple Vision Pro, the future outlook is optimistic. The impact of Apple's first spatial computer on our interaction with technology has already set a precedent, establishing new standards for what is possible in the tech world. And, by the history of Apple, we can only expect that, with each update, it will exceed all expectations.
