Apple has yet to release its first version Vision Pro headset; however, the company is reportedly already working on a follow-up version.

In his weekly PowerOn newsletter Sunday, Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman said that Apple was already working on its next version of the headset, with a special focus on making the device more comfortable to wear, specifically by making the device lighter and smaller.

According to Gurman, the first version of the headset has caused some neck strain due to its size and weight, something that at the very least will cut down on how long someone can wear the headset, but he notes it could also deter potential buyers who are already a little wary of mixed-reality headsets.

Apple plans on addressing the weight in the first version with an over-the-head strap.

Another important detail being looked at for the second version of the headset is the need for eyeglass wearers to purchase lenses for the device that replaces their glasses. That feature significantly complicates the purchase process for the Vision Pro for glasses wearers.

For now, Apple plans on sipping custom-built headsets from the factory with users' lenses preinstalled; however, it’s reportedly looking at other solutions for the long term,

The Vision Pro is expected to officially go on sale sometime early next year. The $3,500 headset projects images over your real-world surroundings for a mixed-reality experience Apple calls “spacial computing.”

Unlike other headsets, the Vision Pro does not require a controller and instead relies on your voice, finger gestures, and eyes to navigate your experience using the device.
