Apple is taking major steps in bringing its premium Vision Pro headset to more markets around the world. The latest country to join the list is Taiwan, where the device will be available for purchase starting December 17, 2024. Pre-orders are already open, and this move shows Apple’s dedication to making its innovative headset accessible to a wider audience. The Vision Pro, which was first introduced earlier this year, is continuing its global rollout.
In Taiwan, customers will have a range of options to choose from, including different storage capacities and ZEISS optical inserts for vision correction. Apple has also updated its Taiwanese website to include comprehensive product specs and pricing details. To give potential buyers a hands-on experience, Apple will be offering 30-minute demonstration sessions at its two retail stores in Taipei, allowing people to try out the Vision Pro’s capabilities before committing to a purchase.

When Will Apple Vision Pro Launch in India?
As Apple expands the availability of the Vision Pro to more countries, many are wondering when the device will launch in India. Apple has consistently highlighted India as an important market, but the high price of the Vision Pro, $3,499 (about Rs 3 lakh), could make it a tough sell in the Indian market, especially considering it’s a first-generation product.
The premium price tag, along with the specialized nature of the Vision Pro, raises questions about whether Apple sees enough demand to justify a local launch. However, with the growing trend of consumers purchasing high-end tech from international markets, Apple might consider an official release in India down the line. In the meantime, tech enthusiasts in India could still find ways to import the headset from regions where it’s available.
There’s also some hope that Apple might release a more affordable version of the Vision Pro in the future, which could make the device more appealing to a wider audience, including Indian consumers.
What Makes the Apple Vision Pro Stand Out?
The Vision Pro headset is powered by Apple’s custom visionOS operating system and boasts an impressive OLED-on-silicon (OLED oS) display with a pixel density of 3,391 pixels per inch (PPI), ensuring ultra-clear visuals. This high-resolution display is designed for both virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), offering a truly immersive digital experience.
Under the hood, the Vision Pro is powered by Apple’s M2 processor and R1 chip, which work together to deliver smooth, seamless performance. As Apple continues to expand the Vision Pro to more countries, including recent launches in South Korea and the UAE, the company is clearly making its mark in the mixed-reality space.
While the Vision Pro is already available in markets such as the United States, Canada, Europe, and Japan, its continued global expansion is exciting news for tech lovers everywhere. As for India, whether the Vision Pro will launch in the near future remains uncertain. However, with potential plans for a more affordable version, the device’s future in India looks promising.
