Imagine thinking “open Messages” and a floating inbox instantly appears. Or staring at a 3D model and mentally rotating it before your finger even twitches. That’s not 2030. That’s Neuralis, Apple’s codename for Vision Pro 2, launching September 2026 at $2499.
A 52page Foxconn PVT document just leaked (verified by MingChi Kuo and Mark Gurman) and it’s pure insanity: 32core Neural Engine, M5 silicon, 7000 nits microOLED, and a “Neural Band” that reads your brainwaves with zero gel. Meta’s AI looks like a toddler toy next to this.
Here’s every detail you need before WWDC 2026.
From $3499 Flop to $2499 Neural Monster, The GlowUp Nobody Saw Coming
Vision Pro 1 sold under 200k units because it was heavy, dim, and stupidly expensive. Neuralis fixes everything
Weight 340 g (40 % lighter, magnesiumcarbon frame) Price $2499 base (512 GB) Battery redistributed + hotswap strap Neural Band soft EEG headband that reads 95 % accurately reads intent in 5 ms
Mass production starts Q2 2026, ships September 2026 alongside iPhone 18.
The Hardware That Will Make You Sell Your Quest Today
Displays Dual Sony 1.8 µm microOLED 5500 × 5500 per eye (~23 million pixels total) 7000 nits HDR peaks 100 Hz native (120 Hz experimental mode) Pancake lenses 2.0, zero god rays, variable focus for all day comfort
Chipset M5 Pro (3 nm) 10core CPU + 12core GPU 32core Neural Engine (40 TOPS, double Gen 1) 32 GB unified RAM R3 coprocessor for 8K passthrough at 40 ms latency
Neural Band 16channel dry EEG electrodes Decodes microintents (scroll, zoom, select) with just a thought Onboard encryption, nothing leaves the device

The MindReading Features That Break Reality
- Intent Prediction Neural Engine watches your gaze + brain spikes and executes commands before you finish thinking them. Latency drops to 5 ms.
- Neural Desk Think “spreadsheet” and a perfect Excel clone floats in space. Think “summarize” and it writes a bullet list in 1 second.
- Persona 2.0 Your avatar now copies microexpressions and even emotional tone using EEG mood detection.
- ZeroTouch Controls No more pinchtozoom. Just think “zoom in” or “rotate left”. Calibration takes 5 minutes, then it’s scary accurate.
- 8K Mac Virtual Display True Retina 5K per eye, no lag, works outdoors at 7000 nits.

RealWorld Benchmarks (Leaked Internal Tests)
Heavy 8K CAD + AI overlay + 10 floating apps Neuralis 3 seconds load / 120 fps stable Vision Pro 1 8 seconds / 90 fps Quest 4 Pro 5 seconds / 100 fps
Battery life at full load 3 hours (vs 45 minutes on V1).
Pros, Cons & Brutal Verdict
Pros Telepathic controls, 340 g featherweight, $1000 cheaper, 7000 nits outdoor AR, 3hour battery, 32core AI that actually feels like magic
Cons Still Appleonly ecosystem, 100 Hz (not 120 Hz yet), Neural Band needs 5min daily recalibration
Scores 9.9/10 for pros and creators 9.7/10 for power users 9.3/10 for everyone else (price finally sane)
Final Warning
If you buy any headset this Christmas you will regret it by September 2026. Neuralis isn’t an upgrade. It’s the moment spatial computing becomes mental computing.
