Apple Faces Production Challenges and Cuts for Vision Pro Headset

Apple is reportedly scaling back its production plans for the $3,499 Vision Pro mixed reality headset due to production difficulties and complex design. The company is concerned about its ability to meet the internal sales target of 1 million units in 2024. The production issues have also delayed plans for a cheaper version of the headset. Sources suggest that Apple expects to make less than 400,000 units in 2024, significantly lower than the initial target. The manufacturing of the micro-OLED displays and outward-facing lens is a major challenge, with Apple expressing dissatisfaction with suppliers' productivity and the number of defect-free displays. Despite these hurdles, analysts predict a user base of over 20 million for the Apple Vision Pro five years after launch.

Some users have received replacement devices from Google, while others have experienced issues with debris causing screen damage. This follows a pattern seen with other foldable phones, such as Samsung's Galaxy Fold and Flip series, which have also faced problems with inner-screen peeling and hinge-related breaks. The delicate nature of foldable screens, which lack a layer of glass and instead use Ultra Thin Glass, presents a challenging engineering problem. Google is offering replacement parts for the Pixel Fold on iFixit.

Google Pixel Fold: A Short-Lived but Promising Device

The Pixel Fold, Google's foldable phone, experienced display issues after just four days of light usage.

This issue is common among foldable screens, and the Pixel Fold's display was built the same way as those of other companies, such as Samsung and BOE.
