Apple hits the accelerator to launch Vision Pro outside the US

He Apple Vision Pro is preparing for its long-awaited international debut. According to Mark Gurman, BloombergApple has begun training employees at its stores in different countries to conduct demonstrations with the space computer. This would be a sign that the device’s launch outside the US is just around the corner.

The aforementioned journalist points out that the Apple Vision Pro training phase involves hundreds of employees who traveled to North America specifically for it. The course, lasting a maximum of four days, was intended for Apple Store employees in China, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, Australia, Germany and France..

The interesting thing about this matter is that, training aside, Apple has not yet confirmed to its employees which countries will receive the Vision Pro first after the US. It is logical that this was done in order to avoid more specific leaks about the device. availability.

The intention of the people of Cupertino is that mixed reality glasses begin its expansion into international markets after WWDC 2024. Therefore, it would not be strange if the official announcement was made during the first performance of the event, which will take place on June 10th.

Apple Vision Pro will be launched outside the US very soon.

International availability is critical to giving new impetus to Apple Vision Pro sales. Apple’s space computer debuted very successfully in the United States, but quickly fizzled out. Gurman himself reported in April that many people who signed up to test the device at Apple Stores didn’t even show up.

A few days later, Ming-Chi Kuo reported that Apple had cut production of the Vision Pro due to declining public interest. Californians would be supply reduction in 2024 to 400,000–450,000 units, when in principle they asked their suppliers to increase production capacity between 700,000 and 800,000 units.

The main disadvantage of Apple Vision Pro is its high price. In the USA the device costs US$3499 and so far it has few optimized applications. The company was expected to make a more detailed mention of the device last week during the presentation of the new iPad Pro and Air, but it went largely unnoticed. Tim Cook only briefly mentioned his acceptance at the start of the event.

The announcement of the international launch of Apple Vision Pro at WWDC 2024 could be accompanied by important news in visionOS. Although the operating system has already received updates and improvements, its second version may bring new features. One of the strongest rumors points to the possible integration of Apple Pencil support.

For now we will have to wait. If the new information is correct, in less than a month we could get details on which countries will be the first to officially receive the Apple Vision Pro after its premiere limited to the United States. We will closely monitor the situation and update you with any news..
