        Apple issued a press release last week confirming that the Vision Pro headset will utilize its M2 chip, along with the new R1 chip, to process information from 12 cameras, five sensors, and six microphones to "ensure content feels like it's right in front of the user's eyes. Unfortunately, Apple still hasn't announced the full specs of the Vision Pro, only that it will be available for pre-order in the U.S. on Friday, January 19th at 5 a.m. PT, and available in the U.S. on Friday, February 2nd.
 
 
        According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple's upcoming Vision Pro will utilize the higher-end M2 chip, which should be the case given its $3,499 (Note: currently around Rs. 25,123) price tag. The M2 chip in Apple's Vision Pro has 10 GPU cores compared to the regular 8-core GPU model, so it will also have more graphics performance, which is necessary for the high-resolution 4K display that the Vision Pro features.
        Apple says the headset features an OLEDoS screen with "micro-OLED" technology that produces 23 million pixels for a monocular 4K display. Apple says that the area of one pixel on an iPhone can hold 64 pixels on the Vision Pro. Apple says the R1 can stream a new image to the display in less than 12 milliseconds, which is eight times faster than the blink of an eye, and the Apple Vision Pro can be used all day long when plugged into a power source, or for up to two hours with an external high-performance battery.
        In addition, the R1 co-processor can take some of the workload off of the M2, allowing the M2 to handle more intensive tasks, and Gurman's latest post on X mentions that Apple Card customers will be able to choose to pay in installments at checkout.
