Apple is aiming to launch its Vision Pro headset “by February,” according to new information from reliable Apple tipster Mark Gurman.
The tech giant unveiled the $3,499 mixed-reality headset to great fanfare in June, and said at the time that it would launch first in the U.S. in “early 2024.”
Since then, multiple reports suggested the Vision Pro headset would land in Apple Stores in March, but in a report by Bloomberg on Wednesday that cited people with knowledge of the matter, Gurman said the company is now “ramping up production … setting the stage for a launch by February.”
Although it seems clearer than ever that Apple is pushing for an imminent launch, the report cautioned that “last-minute production hiccups or other snags could, of course, push back the planned timeline.”
While Apple is resting a lot on the success of the Vision Pro, its high price — more than double that of a maxed-out iPhone 15 Pro Max — will be prohibitive for many. With that in mind, Apple is also thought to be preparing a more affordable version of the Vision Pro that comes with fewer features, but enough to still make it a compelling product.
