Apple Inc.’s biggest new product in years is not expected to shake off its slow sales start until the release of a cheaper model next year.

The $3,500 Vision Pro mixed-reality headset has yet to sell 100,000 units in a quarter since its launch in the US in February, and it faces a 75% drop in domestic sales in the current quarter, according to market tracker IDC.
