Ming-Chi Kuo, a highly regarded Apple analyst, says Apple plans to kick off mass production of its next-gen Vision Pro in the second half of 2025. Its key selling point will be AI spatial computing enabled by the Apple M5 chip.
Apple’s current Vision Pro device is powered by the M2 chip, so the M5 will significantly improve performance. This, in turn, will enable better AI capabilities, which are crucial for spatial computing.
Apple wants to make the human-machine interface more intuitive and efficient by combining Apple Intelligence, eye tracking and gesture control. And the M5’s improved ability to handle AI-related tasks is the key to making this happen.
Ming-Chi Kuo believes that Apple will be able to keep relatively similar price since it will use largely the same hardware and only upgrading the chip. More lightweight design and bigger battery are still in the cards, though.
If Apple manages to offer attractive user scenarios, the next-generation Vision Pro could make it to the mainstream. The planned AI capabilities will likely be superior to those offered by standard smartphones, for example, but will they be enough?
