Apple Vision Pro 2 With M5 Chip May Not Launch Until 2026

It really doesn’t matter. The device not need that much performance power. It does everything it promises with no issues. Apps are a joke though and nobody really has a case for them. I really like my AVP, but it is simply a consumption device for watching movies for me. Does great at that though. I doubt I would upgrade until it dies.

AVP version 1 would have greatly benefited from the next gen silicon:

• 24GB RAM in base configuration — Current 16GB leads to apps often becoming unstable due to memory pressure. Manually killing all apps usually help in 2.x OS, but in 1.x one needed to reboot the whole OS often.
• M3 bringing 3nm process to cut down heat dissipation
• 3nm process for R1 to cut down heat dissipation

Less heat could have allowed passive cooling — cutting down the weight and size by losing fans.
