Apple Vision Pro Availability – Here's What You Are Getting for $3500
In the latest press release, Apple has announced that the Vision Pro will be made available on February 2 in the USA after the headset was first introduced last year. It will be sold from both retail and online stores. And before the shipment, pre-orders are set to start on January 19 at 5:00 PM Pacific Time.
The announcement was preceded by recent reports that the company plans to release the spatial headset in the country by early February. It was forecasted by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman that Apple has begun shipping the Vision Pro to several warehouses across the States.
There was also a chatter that the iPhone manufacturer has started flying and training some employees in their headquarters in respect to the usage and set up of the Vision Pro. At the same time, a wider briefing sessions are planned for Apple's retail employees on January 21, corroborating with the new timing.
Unfortunately, there was no word or hint whether the Vision Pro should see a wider global availability aside from the US. But in Gurman's report, the UK, Canada, and China are the next markets the wearable will be available.
