Apple might launch Vision Pro on January 26: Sale sometime in February

A recent report by Bloomberg suggests that the device will be manufactured at the company’s China facility and users will have to book an appointment at a physical Apple Store to see if the headset fits the wearer properly.

The original iPad was released on a Saturday. Jan 26 is indeed the date floating around the last few days among people in China who claim to be connected to Apple. Like I said, units will be ready by end of January with a retail launch by February. It’s imminent.

Powered by Apple’s in-house developed M2 chip, which also powers the company’s iPad and MacBook lineup, Vision Pro will run on visionOS, which lets users control apps using their eyes, hands and voice.

Gurman’s claims corroborate Ming-Chi Kuo’s report, which also hints that Apple’s spatial computing device will be available for purchase in early February in select markets. However, Apple Vision Pro won’t be initially available in India but will be limited to retail stores in the United States.
