Eh, the GPU changes with ray tracing were supposed to land last year as part of A16 but heat issues required them to pull it.

The bright side is that if you are on a yearly release cadence then you don’t let one thing slip the whole SOC (assuming, as Apple does, that you have a risk on and risk off design going simultaneously).

Your are right on that the Vision Pro will have a M3 not M2.

It's been publicly announced as using M2 but I assume they just plan to say "we made it even faster" and launch with M3 then?

possibly a more affordable standard tier with the m2

Where did you read about this? Is there some publication that publishes insights into things like this?
