Washington: Apple's highly anticipated Vision Pro headset appears to be facing a significant setback as reports emerge of a substantial cut in production orders.
A source revealed to Mashable that Apple is slashing its shipment estimates for the year, signalling a downturn in demand far below initial expectations.
Reportedly, the tech giant had initially set its sights on delivering between 700,000 to 800,000 units of the Vision Pro headset. However, the latest revelation suggests that Apple has scaled back its projections to a modest 400,000 to 450,000 units for the entire year.
This dramatic reduction in forecasted sales indicates a notable decline in consumer interest, especially in the United States, where demand has reportedly plummeted.
