Unofficially the Apple Vision Pro is dead. The company assembling the unit, Luxshare, has been advised by Tim & Co. to wind up production by the end of November.
Good move.
At least Apple didn't drag out this agony like the Apple Car for ten years.
Now Apple can get back to resurrecting the Apple Car as the Apple Car Management Software and sell it to every EV car manufacturer out there other than the Chinese.
This software will catapult Apple into a 6 Trillion company.
Apple is literally launching the product in two more countries this week. So they are still spending money and doing the work required to expand availability. Seems like an odd choice for a "dead" product.

That's so. So who writes, supports and distributes Apple Car Play which runs on a gazillion cars? Apple Car Play is a pretty lame piece of software that doesn't do much but deliver some minor functionality. Why not elevate that group of engineers to write Apple Car Management Software to actually do something useful: manage the BEV?
CarPlay is powered by and largely runs on the phone. There is a small amount of software put on vehicle to allow the phone to use the screen. If CarPlay were actually installed on the car you would be able to use it sans iPhone. Kind of like how Apple offers Music on Windows or AppleTV app on TVs. There is a world of difference between making an App for another device and making the OS. So, yeah, that is so. Apple isn’t going to become the vendor for an EV OS. It just isn’t going to happen. Kind of like how they don’t license MacOS, iOS, WatchOS, iPadOS, VisionOS or HomeOS to be installed on non-Apple products.
