Mark Gurman from Bloomberg, citing some Apple employees, said that the Vision Pro will be finalized only after 4 generations. This is what is considered in the company itself.
Engineers believe they still have a lot of work to do to get the helmet up to the point where it can be used every day. The text does not specify what exactly employees consider to be the ideal, but judging by user reviews, this applies to both software and hardware improvements.
Among the known problems: the heavy weight of the device, a separate bulky battery, not the best battery life, a small number of applications and large VisionOS. Gurman believes that if the Cupertino team can solve these issues in four generations, then the Vision Pro can replace the iPad.
On the other hand, there were also problems when positioning the iPad. Thoughts created a spare computer out of it and even added many new features, such as Stage Manager, to stop using the tablet. However, he was never able to replace the computer, although he was very close to doing so.
As for the Vision Pro, “it requires some hardware updates, a lot of updated software, and a lot of support from app developers and content creators to truly make the headset the iPad replacement it can best be.” In those cases, Gurman says, the Vision Pro is actually a prototype. Only “you should break Apple for being able to test it.” [Bloomberg]
