How to Experience Vision Pro
If you're eager to try out the Vision Pro at an Apple Store, you have two options, based on the US launch model. You can do the demo for an early experiment.
- Launch Day Demos: On launch day (either June 28 or July 12), visit an Apple Store. Demos will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Approach a staff member to check availability.
- Post-Launch Appointments: Following the launch, Apple will offer scheduled appointments. These are expected to start the week after the initial release, mirroring the US strategy.
Why Apple Vision Pro Shines
Apple Vision Pro seamlessly integrates digital content with your physical environment, transforming how you interact with your favorite apps and media. This device marks the dawn of spatial computing, offering an infinite canvas to enhance productivity and entertainment.
Key Features:
- Infinite Canvas: Arrange and scale apps to your preferred size, creating your ideal workspace.
- Multitasking: Effortlessly browse the web in Safari, jot down notes in Notes, chat in Messages, and switch between apps with a glance.
- Mac Integration: Wirelessly bring your Mac workflows into the Vision Pro with Mac Virtual Display, enhancing your computing experience.
Understanding Vision Pro Pricing
In the UK, the Vision Pro starts at £3,499, reflecting a pound-for-dollar pricing strategy when compared to the US market. However, differences in sales tax treatment between the US and Europe can distort the apparent pricing.
- US Pricing (Excluding Sales Tax): $3,400
- UK Pricing (Including 20% VAT): £3,499
For the price breakdown, the US price before tax is applied will hit $3,400. If you're residing in the UK, you will pay $4,080. As you will notice, it's more expensive than the US pricing since this includes 20% UK VAT. The actual UK price will be $4,343 as a result.
The Era of Spatial Computing
Apple Vision Pro leads the new era of spatial computing, allowing users to blend digital content seamlessly with their physical space. Whether working, watching your favorite clips, or connecting with others, the Vision Pro offers an unparalleled experience that keeps you engaged with the world around you.
