Vision Pro

Apple Vision Pro runs visionOS, a new platform from Apple that runs both spatial apps and compatible iPad apps. Apple has now confirmed which spatial apps will be pre-installed on visionOS 1.0 when Apple Vision Pro reaches customers in February.

Along with Vision Pro pre-orders launching today, Apple has shared how much it costs to protect its brand-new headset. $500 gets you two-year coverage, but you can also opt for monthly coverage that lasts as long as you like. We’ll also cover how much the deductibles are if you need to get a replacement or repairs, what all is covered, and more.

Apple Vision Pro is now available for pre-order, and so are lots of accessories for Apple’s first spatial computer. The price for most things? $200 each. That’s how much extra light seals, batteries, and the Vision Pro carrying case costs. There are more accessories for Apple Vision Pro as well.

Along with pre-orders opening today, Apple has also shared its full in-depth breakdown of tech specs for Vision Pro. The company has confirmed that Vision Pro is available in three different storage tiers, including 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB

Apple’s first spatial computer is officially available for pre-order in the United States. Vision Pro can now be ordered from Apple’s website for $3,499, and it kicks off a new era that has been years in the making.

Here’s everything you need to know about Vision Pro and how to pre-order it.

We learned yesterday that Netflix won’t offer a dedicated app for Vision Pro, nor will it allow Vision Pro users to run the iPad version of the app. Now, additional details have emerged about which apps will be available via Vision Pro when it launches on February 2.

Apple curiously opted not to release a second keynote-style video explaining Apple Vision Pro before pre-orders start. Internally, however, Apple distributed an introductory video of sorts to employees, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports. The new material reportedly covers future opportunities for Apple Vision Pro, including applications in education, medical, and training fields.

Apple Vision Pro is coming, and that means Apple Store locations in the United States will have some weird hours in the coming days.

Vision Pro is arriving soon and one of the key selling points is a new class of immersive experiences.

Lest you forget, tomorrow is Apple Vision Pro pre-order day. At least in the United States, that is.

If you’re prepared to drop $3,499 on Apple’s first spatial computer, then godspeed. Pre-orders start at 8 a.m. ET, and you’ll want an iPhone or iPad with Face ID around for the process. Having the latest version of the Apple Store app is also a must.

Wear glasses? ZEISS optical inserts are a separate purchase. $99 for readers or $149 for prescription lenses. You’ll need to upload a valid prescription from a US eye doctor after purchasing Vision Pro to buy the right optical inserts.

Apple Vision Pro curious but can’t or not eager to let go of $3,499 for the experience?

Right off the bat, I’ll make it clear that this is not a review. My demo today was around 30 minutes, which is not long enough to draw any firm conclusions.

Apple Vision Pro pre-orders in the US start on Friday, and reporters are getting their twelfth round of hands-on time with the hardware. That officially makes Vision Pro the most reviewed Apple hardware before journalists publish their actual reviews of Vision Pro.

What’s different this time, however, is Apple has allowed reporters to share photos of them actually using Vision Pro. Whether or not that helps or hurts the product is up to you.
