A new Vision Pro teardown shows Apple’s incredible pixel density


iFixit went inside the Vision Pro to count every pixel.

That’s the big takeaway from iFixit’s second teardown video on the headset (with accompanying blog), as the team found the dual MicroOLED panels inside are the densest they’ve ever seen at 3,386 pixels per inch (ppi). The big Lightning connector is used to output a non-USB standard 13 volts, and iFixit also found the accelerometer that activates the pack’s charge LED as well as temperature sensors, which could also help keep it from getting uncomfortably hot while in users’ pockets. But when it comes to getting into the Vision Pro, it takes “a lot of careful finessing with a heat gun and multiple prying tools” to get it apart without damaging it.
