Apple Vision Pro Launches in UK, Canada, France, Germany, and Australia

Consumer interest in the $3,499 headset has slowed at home, and Apple will be hoping its new availability in international markets will provide a shot in the arm for ailing sales. The headset has yet to sell 100,000 units in the quarter since it launched in the U.S. in February, according to market tracker IDC.

Apple's first-ever mixed reality headset offers both augmented and virtual reality features, and it is controlled with a combination of your eyes, hands, and voice. Overall, the feedback on the Vision Pro has been varied. Many users appreciate the device's advanced hardware and technology.

However, there are concerns regarding its functionality, the ease of use of the gesture-based controls, and the device's weight and comfort during extended use. Additionally, the general application of VR technology and the limited content available for the device have drawn criticism.

Apple Stores are offering customers free Vision Pro demos on a first-come, first-served basis. It is also possible to reserve a Vision Pro demo online, with slots available over the course of the next week.

I'd rather spend £3500-4000 on a new Mac Studio with M4 Max and maybe a Studio display.

Had a demo in the UK this morning. I’ve been skeptical, but the demo was very impressive. Pretty damn amazing actually. Pass through quality was way better than I was expecting. Immersive stuff is pretty magical. Just trying to justify spending so much. If Apple sold this for £1-2k in the UK I think it would do well. Amazing product
