By MYBRANDBOOK
With compatibility for both AR and VR, Apple's Vision Pro mixed reality headset will be on sale in the US from February 2. Pre-orders will open on January 19 at 5:00 am PST. The gadget, which debuted at WWDC 2023, will be sold at Apple Stores and online and runs the VisionOS operating system. Consumers can register for demonstrations in-store.
The price of Apple Vision Pro starts at $3,499 (roughly Rs. 2,90,000) with 256GB storage. The device ships with a Solo Knit Band and Dual Loop Band. The package also includes a Light Seal and two Light Seal Cushions, as well as a polishing cloth, a battery, a USB Type-C cable, and a USB Type-C adapter. Further, there will be an Apple Vision Pro cover for the front of the device.
For those with vision correction needs, ZEISS Optical Inserts are available with a prescription or as readers that magnetically attach to Vision Pro. Apple says that readers will cost $99 (roughly Rs. 8,000), while prescription lenses are available for $149 (roughly Rs. 12,000). Prices and release dates for the Apple Vision Pro in countries other than the US are yet to be announced.
The Apple Vision Pro was unveiled at Apple's WWDC event in June last year marking the company's foray into spatial computing. It runs on visionOS and features two high-resolution micro-OLED displays. It is powered by Apple's M2 chips and includes an R1 chip to process input from 12 cameras, five sensors, and six microphones. The headset has a three-dimensional user interface and input system controlled by a user's eyes, hands, and voice. With the twist of the Digital Crown, users can control the level of immersion in different environments.
Apple claims that more than 1 million apps across iOS and iPadOS are available on Apple Vision Pro and automatically work with the new input system. Users can pair it with a Magic Keyboard and Trackpad for productivity needs. It lets users stream shows and movies from platforms including Apple TV+, Disney+ Max and more. For gamers, the Vision Pro offers over 250 Apple Arcade titles.
