Apple has reportedly downsized its Apple Vision Group, shedding at least 60 employees who were dedicated to virtual reality development, according to AppleInsider. The layoffs came after the October 2025 refresh of the Vision Pro, a headset that received lukewarm reception. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman had earlier confirmed the disbandment of the Vision Pro team, with its members being reassigned to other projects.
These changes were likely influenced by Apple's decision to cancel both the second Vision Pro and the cheaper, slimmer Vision Air. The company's newfound focus now appears to be on smart glasses. Gurman does not anticipate Apple releasing another headset until at least late 2028.
