Available in three storage capacities – 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB – the Vision Pro comes with price points starting at $3499 for the base model and going up to $3899 for the highest configuration. Users can opt for additional accessories and services, such as Apple Care+ and premium chargers, to enhance their experience further.

Under the hood, the Vision Pro boasts an impressive lineup of specifications, including an 8-core CPU, a 10-core GPU, and 16GB of unified memory. Powered by the revolutionary R1 chip, this headset can seamlessly process inputs from 12 cameras, 5 sensors, and 6 microphones, with a memory bandwidth of 256GB/s. The micro-OLED display technology delivers stunning visuals, with 23 million pixels spread across two postage stamp-sized screens, supporting wide color gamut and HDR.

One of the standout features of the Vision Pro is its all-new visionOS, which introduces a groundbreaking 3D interface. This interface creates a lifelike representation of digital content, integrating seamlessly with the user's real-world surroundings. By leveraging natural light and shadow, the Vision Pro helps users perceive proportions and distances more intuitively.

In terms of interaction, the Vision Pro introduces a novel input system that allows users to control the headset using their eyes, hands, and voice. Whether browsing apps, selecting options, or inputting text, users can effortlessly navigate through the interface with simple gestures and commands.

Additionally, the Vision Pro incorporates EyeSight technology, which keeps users connected to their surroundings. When someone approaches a user wearing the Vision Pro, the device's field of view becomes transparent, allowing both parties to maintain eye contact. This feature provides visual cues to others, indicating whether the user is engaged in a virtual environment or using an app.

Currently available in the United States through the official Apple website and retail stores, the Vision Pro is set to launch in more countries and regions in the near future. With its cutting-edge technology and innovative features, the Vision Pro promises to revolutionize the way we perceive and interact with digital content.
