# Fourth quarter shipment estimates plummet to 45,000 units, Apple plans to reduce Vision Pro production scale

According to reports from two market intelligence companies, due to weak consumer demand, Apple Inc. (AAPL.US) has scaled back the production and marketing of its Vision Pro headset.

According to data from International Data Corporation (IDC), Apple's manufacturing partner in China, Luxshare Precision, stopped production of the Vision Pro at the beginning of last year. In 2024 (the year the device is released), its shipment volume is expected to be 390,000 units.

IDC predicts that Apple will only deliver 45,000 new units in the fourth quarter of 2025 (including the busy holiday shopping season).

According to data from Sensor Tower, the tech giant has also significantly reduced its digital advertising spending for the Vision Pro in markets such as the United States and the United Kingdom. Apple directly sells the headset in 13 countries but has not expanded it to other markets in 2025.

With a starting price of $3,499, the Vision Pro is considered too expensive by many. Critics also point out that the headset is relatively heavy, uncomfortable to wear, has a shorter battery life, and limited application software.

Apple is attempting to address some of these issues by launching an upgraded M5 version in October, which extends battery life and features a new headband design. Apple is expected to release a lower-priced, lower-spec version later this year.

According to data from Counterpoint Research, virtual reality headsets generally face challenges in attracting consumer interest, with the overall market size shrinking by 14% year-on-year.

Currently, about 80% of the market share is held by Meta (META.US) with its Quest headset, which has a starting price of around $370 and is less advanced. Even so, Meta has also reduced its digital marketing spending for its headset products over the past year
