As we have had the opportunity to tell on these pages, the overall price of the Apple Vision Pro components is a far cry from the 3,499 dollars requested by the Cupertino giant to bring home his space computer.
The report published by a senior researcher at Omdia, David Hsieh, estimates that the total price of the components is around this figure, with the lion’s share made up of the two micro-OLED displays costing 456 dollars. The external display used for the Eyesight would instead cost 70 Dollars, while the M2 chip with R1 processor would cost 240 Dollars, equal to just over 15% of the total cost of materials.
As previously done, given that estimates of this type are also usually published for iPhones and other electronic products launched on the market, we warn you against making simple calculations. The fact that Apple sells the Apple Vision Pro for $3,499 and that it costs $1,542 does not imply a net gain of $1,957.
The 1,542 dollars in fact they do not take into account production, shipping, marketing, much less research costs and development that for a device of this type it is easy to imagine are very high compared to others. Clearly, it is not known how much these costs amount to, as they are difficult to quantify, but be careful to make easy calculations.
