Apple Stock News: Vision Air
Apple Stock News: Apple plans to launch a lighter version of its Vision Pro headset called “Vision Air” in 2027. It will reportedly be approximately 40% lighter and 50% cheaper than the current model, bringing the price down to around $1750. The device is expected to feature a titanium construction and a redesigned battery compartment. Sales projections for Vision Air are estimated at one million units compared to 400 thousand for the original Vision Pro.
Foldable iPhone
Apple plans to introduce a foldable iPhone in 2026 followed by a foldable iPad in 2028, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. Both devices will use ultra-thin cover glass supplied by Corning. In 2026, Apple aims to sell 8-10 million foldable iPhones, increasing to 25 million in 2027. The foldable iPad’s sales are projected lower due to its significantly higher price tag.
Robotics for Manufacturing
Apple is speeding up automation across its manufacturing supply chain, making it mandatory for suppliers. This move aims to reduce reliance on manual labor, improve product quality, and cut costs. Suppliers must now fund their own automation initiatives, leading to increased pressure on their profit margins. Meanwhile, Apple remains committed to supporting sustainability efforts within its supply chain, targeting carbon neutrality by 2030.
