better strap, faster chip
It's mostly the same, but with a better strap and a faster chip. The new M5 chip offers minor speed and efficiency gains, but the biggest change is the improved Dual Knit Band, which makes the heavy headset much more comfortable. Apple is also shifting focus towards smart glasses due to slower Vision Pro adoption.
- 🎧 The new Dual Knit Band, available separately for $99, distributes weight better using tungsten in the back for counterbalance.
- 🚀 The M5 chip enables faster app loading, slightly higher pixel rendering, and about 20% longer battery life.
- 🧐 Samsung's 'Project Moohan' is a competing mixed-reality headset running Android XR.
- 👓 Smart glasses like Meta's Ray-Ban displays are progressing much faster and are more appealing to the general public.
- 📉 Apple may have scrapped plans for a 'Vision Pro Air' to focus resources on smart glasses development.
