Apple Inc. is slashing production targets for its Vision Pro headset because manufacturers are struggling with the novel gadget’s complex design, the Financial Times reported.
Apple is now preparing to make fewer than 400,000 units of the $3,499 headset in 2024, the Times said, citing unidentified people close to Apple and Luxshare Precision Industry Co., the Chinese firm that’s initially assembling the device. Two China-based suppliers of components said Apple was only asking for enough parts for 130,000 to 150,000 units in the first year, while plans for a cheaper version have been pushed back, the newspaper reported.
