Even though we know that Apple has been working on the project for 15 years, it wasn’t until June 2023 that we officially heard about the Vision Pro, Apple’s famous space computing headset also known as the “Apple Glasses”. The thing is, they only launched in the US at the beginning of February, so find out the launch date of the Vision Pro in USA It became something very interesting.
Especially if we know that there are a few Spaniards who have already achieved it. Without going any further, the director of Applesfera, who has already shared the first impressions of using the Vision Pro. everything we know about the international launch of this long-awaited product.
When does the Apple Vision Pro arrive in USA?
Believe us when we tell you that at Applesfera we would be happy to give you an exact date or even an approximation. However, Apple has not confirmed the launch in USA. For now. At the time, it was announced that they would launch in the United States in 2024, which happened on February 2.
Launch in other countries has also been confirmed. It has not been specified which ones, but it is intuitive that USA is one of them, since our territory is one of the main ones in Europe in which the company launches all its products first. exist signs it could be before Junewhich analyst Ming-Chi Kuo confirmed, but it’s not entirely clear.
Will the Vision Pro arrive in other countries before USA?
In accordance with the above, it must be said that in this leak provided by Ming-Chi Kuo, the analyst did not offer an exact date or a specific list of territories. So things, It is possible that the Vision Pro arrived earlier in some countries like Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and even China.although in the latter case they will first have to overcome certain obstacles.
These territories would not be chosen at random, but they are important markets for Apple where the company has a good customer base who could be potential consumers of Vision Pro and who would be a guinea pig of sorts.
Regardless, we must take into account that The launch in USA and other countries also depends on the number of units available, since Ming-Chi Kuo himself said that barely half a million units would be manufactured in 2024, a figure that seems insufficient to supply much of the world, even if the Vision Pro is not at the starting out as a mass product.

Why are there Spaniards who already own the Apple Vision Pro?
Simple and quick answer: They went to the United States to buy them and motivated by the simple enthusiasm of being a early adopter which aims to be one of the most differential products in recent Apple history. In our particular case of Applesfera, and more particularly of our director Pedro Aznar, a trip to New York was organized with other enthusiasts.

This is obviously not something simple and within everyone’s reach. To the Vision Pro’s price of $3,499, you have to add taxes for the state they’re purchased in, as well as travel, lodging, per diem and more. Furthermore, There are some small limitations when purchasing it in the United Stateslike requiring an American Apple ID to configure them and therefore the subscriptions that we have associated with our Spanish Apple account do not work.
Anyway, if you are interested in such a trip, you can still do it. We already have an article where we explain how to buy the Vision Pro outside the United States. Although if this seems very tedious, expensive or you just think you can wait, it is better to have a little patience and wait to see the product in USA.
If you would like to know the different experiences of our colleagues regarding this viewer, you will find some interesting points of view here:
Can the Vision Pro be tested in an Apple Store in USA?
No. If you go to an Apple Store, you can personally discuss the product with store employees. Many are as enthusiastic or more enthusiastic than us about the brand. However, for professional purposes they will not inform you of anything about the headset, since they have not yet received training and the launch in our country has not yet been confirmed.
Actually They don’t even have Vision Pro mockups or materials like images or videos. Going to an Apple Store in USA or any other country other than the United States means being able to discover, try and buy an iPhone, an iPad, a Mac or any other Apple product, but not its brand new computing headset spatial.
What features will the Apple Vision Pro have in USA?
Unless there is a major surprise, The Vision Pro will be exactly the same in USA as in the United States. In fact, except in China where they might change the name, the rest of the world will have the exact same product.

What price will the Apple Vision Pro have in USA?
We entered terrain as marshy as it was unknown. Here Everything said is just speculation.. The only thing many of us would get our hands on is that they will be priced higher than $3,499 in the US. So no, it won’t be 3,499 dollars.
Depending on the products in question, the company usually makes the change without further delay, but usually when they are cheaper. Therefore, and although it is yet another hypothesis, we can carry out a currency exchange based on the current value of the dollar and the euro and add 21% VAT, which helps us to have an idea of the prices that could be around:
- Apple Vision Pro 256 GB: 3,930 dollars.
- Apple Vision Pro 512 GB: 4,150 dollars.
- Apple Vision Pro 1TB: 4,375 dollars.
What could react to a simple change of currency are the additional services, accessories and corrective lenses for people with vision problems.
- AppleCare+: 499 dollars.
- “Classic” ZEISS adapters: 99 dollars.
- Graduated adapters: 149 dollars.
- Additional battery: 199 dollars.
- Light seal: 199 dollars.
- Traveling bag: 199 dollars.
- Additional straps: 99 dollars.
In any case, we insist that nothing is confirmed. As soon as the launch date of the Vision Pro in USA is announced, the first leaks on its European price could also appear. In the meantime, all we have to do is wait. Or travel to the United States.
