The dismantling of the Vision Pro into its individual parts was time-consuming, but brings new technical details to light.
Due to the complexity of the device, iFixit has split the teardown into two parts. The first part, published on Saturday, takes an in-depth look at EyeSight, which displays the user’s eyes, while the second part will scrutinize the displays and sensors and assess the overall repairability.
Below are some interesting findings from the first part of the teardown:
In terms of repairability, iFixit highlighted some positive things. It noted that the earpieces and speakers can be removed using a SIM removal tool, and that the light seal and face pad are magnetically attached, making them very easy to attach and remove.
Standalone VR headsets in particular pack a lot of technology into a small space, making them complex to assemble and difficult to repair.
For comparision, here are other iFixit teardowns of standalone headsets that we have covered:
