Announced last year, Apple‘s much-awaited new tech, Vision Pro headset will launch in the United States on 2 February 2024.
The headset features a three-dimensional user interface that breaks free from traditional display boundaries, allowing users to interact with digital content as if it were physically present in their space.
With an ultra-high-resolution display system packing 23 million pixels across two displays and a dual-chip design, every experience feels immersive and real-time.
Apple Vision Pro will be available starting at $3,499 with 256GB of storage. Pre-orders for Apple Vision Pro will begin on Friday, 19 January.
At this stage it is not yet clear when the product will launch in South Africa.
The Apple Vision Pro offers a range of extraordinary features and functionalities. It provides an infinite canvas for apps, enabling multitasking and productivity with infinite screen real estate and wireless compatibility with Mac devices. It delivers engaging entertainment experiences with a personal movie theater-like screen, advanced Spatial Audio, and immersive video recordings.
The headset creates immersive environments that extend beyond physical spaces and offers an innovative way to capture, relive, and share memories with its three-dimensional camera and Spatial Audio. FaceTime calls become spatial, allowing participants to appear in life-size tiles with Spatial Audio.
Apple’s visionOS, the world’s first spatial operating system, powers the Apple Vision Pro headset, providing a revolutionary interface that responds to natural light, casting shadows to enhance the user’s sense of scale and distance. The new input system combines eye, hand, and voice control, allowing users to navigate through apps, select, scroll, and dictate effortlessly. The headset also features EyeSight, a unique innovation that provides visual cues to others about the user’s focus while immersing themselves in an environment or using an app.
With its breakthrough design, the Apple Vision Pro showcases the company’s expertise in high-performance product design. The headset features a compact wearable form factor with a sleek glass and aluminum frame, modular system for a tailored fit, and comfortable straps. The display system incorporates micro-OLED technology to deliver stunning visuals, while the advanced Spatial Audio system creates a surround sound experience. The eye tracking system and powerful Apple silicon chips ensure responsive and intuitive input, while maintaining user privacy and security.
