Apple's Vision Pro Available for Pre-Order at $3.5k USD

Apple has opened pre-orders for the Apple Vision Pro, set to ship on February 2. Priced at $3,499 USD, the spatial computing headset was introduced at the Worldwide Developers Conference in June 2023. It claims to feature the first operating system designed specifically for spatial computing.

The Vision Pro underwent further development, with collaboration between in-house and third-party developers to create a range of apps. Buyers need to provide measurements for the headband and Light Seal, which secures the headset. Optical inserts, developed in partnership with ZEISS, cater to those who wear glasses.

Prospective buyers looking to secure their own Vision Pro will be greeted with a unique shopping experience. To ensure a perfect fit, users are required to provide their measurements for the headband and the Light Seal, the latter securing the headset around their eyes. For those with prescription glasses, Apple has collaborated with renowned optical lens maker ZEISS to offer "optical inserts" in the form of magnifying readers or regular prescriptions.

The base model, priced at $3,699 USD, comes with a generous 256GB of storage. However, Apple caters to the diverse needs of its clientele with upgraded options, including a 512GB model at the same price and a 1TB variant for $3,899 USD. Each order includes the Vision Pro itself, a customizable headband, and the battery pack, currently required to remain connected during use. Additional accessories like a charger, a Light Seal cover, and a protective case round out the comprehensive package.

Tech fashionistas eager to make the Apple Vision Pro a style statement can secure their pre-orders directly through the Apple website.
