Apple said to press on suppliers to solve Vision Pro display issues
Justin Sullivan
Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), which is gearing up to unveil its latest iPhones and Apple Watches next month, is reportedly asking its supply chain to solve the display issues its forthcoming Vision Pro headsets are having.
The U.S. tech giant is working with Chinese suppliers BOE Technology and SeeYa Technology and testing advanced displays to potentially be used in future versions of the headset, The Information reported, citing two people with direct knowledge of the situation.
The displays in the $3,499 device use technology known as Micro-OLED, which allows for incredibly sharp and pristine images to be used in the display. However, Micro-OLED technology is expensive and difficult to produce due to the reliance on silicon wafer as opposed to pixels 
The current display for the Vision Pro, slated to be available next year, comes from Sony (SONY). However, the Japanese tech conglomerate has not expanded its Micro-OLED capacity to more than several hundred thousand units per year, several media outlets have previously reported.
If the displays from BOE and SeeYa meet Apple's (AAPL) standards and specifications, they could replace Sony (SONY) as the display partners and help in cutting the price of the Vision Pro, the news outlet added.
The mixed headset, which marked Apple's biggest entry into a new product area in nearly a decade, was announced on June 5 at the company's annual Worldwide Developers Conference.
Apple (AAPL) did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Seeking Alpha.
Last month, it was reported that Apple (AAPL) had cut its production targets for the Vision Pro due to manufacturing issues.
Apple (AAPL) shares were up 2% in mid-day trading on Tuesday.
