Priced at $3,499, the headset is scheduled to be released in early 2024, starting with availability in the United States. One of the standout features of the Vision Pro is its fully three-dimensional user interface, which can be controlled through eye movements, hand gestures, and voice commands.

The Apple Vision Pro headset also includes EyeSight, a unique functionality that facilitates connectivity with others. When someone approaches a Vision Pro wearer, the device blends into the surroundings, allowing the user to see the person while simultaneously displaying their own eyes.
As the application process begins, developers will have the opportunity to harness the capabilities of Vision Pro and explore its potential to revolutionize the way users engage with digital content in the real world.
