Key Points:
- Apple may brief the press on an Apple Vision Pro update on Friday
- A potential price drop or storage upgrade could be on the horizon
- Apple may not cut the price, but doubling storage at current tiers is a possibility
As we await potential Apple product announcements, a new development has emerged, specifically regarding the Apple Vision Pro. According to Mark Gurman, Apple will brief the press on an update to the device on Friday. While predictions are always speculative, we can consider a few possibilities.
Recent rumors have suggested that Apple might introduce an M5 chip upgrade, Apple Intelligence support, and PSVR controller support for the Vision Pro. However, a fourth possibility has caught my attention: a potential price drop.
The Vision Pro carries a hefty price tag of $3,499, which is a major barrier for many consumers. While Apple has justified the cost by saying it’s paying for "tomorrow’s technology today," the company rarely cuts prices before launching new models. However, there is precedent: the first iPhone’s price was slashed by $200 shortly after its release.
Given the Vision Pro’s high price, a reduction could be just what’s needed to make it more accessible. Another possibility is that Apple could adjust the pricing by doubling storage at the current tiers. While this isn’t a guarantee, it’s a tantalizing prospect.
Inventory constraints might affect the likelihood of a price drop or storage upgrade, but it’s an hope worth holding onto. Considering the Vision Pro’s premium pricing, even a slight reduction could make a significant difference.
In conclusion, while speculative, the possibilities are intriguing. We’ll have to wait and see what Apple reveals on Friday, but one thing is certain: any update, whether it’s a price drop or storage upgrade, will be a step in the right direction for making this device more appealing to a wider audience.
