The rumor mill surrounding Apple never stops churning. Now a report is causing a stir, claiming the Apple Vision Pro 2 is already in production and could be released by April 2026. Sounds exciting \u2013 but is there any truth to it? Here's all the information currently known.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple has taken a major step toward mixed reality with the Vision Pro. While the headset is expensive and intended primarily for enthusiasts, it demonstrates what's technologically possible. Shortly after its market launch, speculation about a second generation began. Now, a report claims that Apple has already begun mass production of the components. Sounds almost too good to be true. That's why it's worth taking a closer look at the facts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mass production of the components is said to already be underway<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

According to the Chinese website IT Home, the components of the second generation of the Apple Vision Pro are already in mass production. Specifically, there is talk that important components such as display panels, casings, and other parts are already in production. The new model may be called Apple Vision Pro 2 and, according to the report, could go on sale as soon as a year from now\u2014by April 2026 at the latest. The source cites several unnamed insiders but does not provide any details about the technology or features of the new headset. It therefore remains unclear whether the design or software will change, how powerful the new chip will be, or whether the headset will be cheaper than the current model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be careful with the source<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

As exciting as the information sounds, it should be taken with caution. IT Home<\/a> hasn't been noted for providing particularly accurate advance information on Apple products. Furthermore, the report currently stands alone\u2014there are no other sources confirming ongoing mass production. And there's another problem: In September 2024, well-known Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo stated that Apple would not begin mass production of the second Vision Pro generation until the second half of 2025. He also assumes that the new chip\u2014presumably the M5\u2014will be used, but expects the market launch to be after April 2026. Kuo is considered one of the most reliable sources when it comes to Apple. IT Home, on the other hand, cannot rely on a comparable track record. This makes it difficult to take the new information seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
