Tianfeng International renowned Apple analyst Guo Mingji stated in an article that the demand for Apple (AAPL.US) Vision Pro in the US market has slowed down significantly, and the shipping time has currently improved to 3-5 days (arrival in early March). After pre-orders opened on January 19th, the shipping time is early March, indicating that Vision Pro sold out after pre-orders opened, but the demand quickly declined and has not improved since. According to surveys, the return rate of Vision Pro is less than 1%, which is not abnormal. It is worth noting that about 20-30% of returns are due to users not knowing how to set up Vision Pro. The market generally expects Apple to release a lower-priced version and an upgraded model, but the latest research shows that Apple has not officially launched these two projects yet. It is currently estimated that a significantly changed new model of Vision Pro may not be mass-produced until 2027.
