News about the Vision Pro or its future successors has been pretty slow lately but according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple is planning a big release for visionOS 3.
There aren’t many details at the moment, but Gurman says that Apple “can’t just let the Vision Pro die out” because it has invested too much into the technology and it needs to keep the device alive and updated for the people who bought it. He says visionOS 3 will be “a pretty feature-packed release,” and that we’ll find out more about it at WWDC 2025 this year.
Whatever these features are, they won’t be Apple Intelligence — the visionOS 2.4 beta took care of that and it will release to the public in April. The Vision Pro app for iPhone and Spatial Gallery will also be released before WWDC in June so as far as we’re concerned, visionOS 3 should be a blank slate full of surprises.
It’s fairly well-known by now that the Vision Pro is considered to be a bit of a failed product and as far as we’ve heard, the development of a new model has been slowed and paused a couple of times. Gurman, however, still believes that both a new Vision Pro model and a more affordable model are still in the works.
As long as Apple plans to continue this tech in the long run, it makes sense for them to keep developing visionOS. They can now test new features on the current Vision Pro audience and slowly create a robust operating system to support the spatial computing products of the future.
The absolutely absurd idea of putting a touchscreen display on a mouse isn't exactly new. Turtle Beach already did it with its Command Series MC7, which features a 2.25-inch control screen. But apparently, even that wasn't ridiculous enough for Arctic Fox Technologies. Its new Super Mouse looks like someone took the chunky old Atari ST mouse, slapped a touchscreen and scroll wheel on it, and called it an upgrade.
The result is a rather unusual-looking mouse that is now on Kickstarter, starting at $199. And as ridiculous as it looks, some of its features are genuinely intriguing.
Apple is less than a day away from launching its highly anticipated OLED MacBook Pro with a touch-sensitive screen. But it appears that the upgrade is going to cost a pretty penny. According to a report by Bloomberg, Apple is reportedly eyeing a starting price of $2,899 for the 14-inch MacBook Pro, while the 16-inch version could start at $3,399 in the US.
"At $2,899, the 14-inch model would mark the highest starting price for a new MacBook Pro model, surpassing the $2,799 Apple charged for a 17-inch version introduced in 2006," says the report. The report claims that Apple is targeting a minimum price hike of $400 for its upcoming redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.
I've spent a good amount of time digging into the spec sheet of the new M6 MacBook Pro (14-inch), and for all intents and purposes, this is a classic Apple "chip and connectivity" refresh. It's not a full redesign. The chassis, Liquid Retina XDR panel, speakers, ports, and battery, all of them carry over unchanged.
However, the M6 brings more cores, stronger on-device AI, higher memory bandwidth on the larger configs, and modern wireless. Here’s the practical rundown of what actually improved, and whether those gains are worth your money.
