International Rollout Signals Apple’s Efforts to Revitalize Sales of High-End Mixed-Reality Headset
Apple (AAPL) is set to broaden the availability of its Vision Pro mixed-reality headset beyond the borders of the United States, as reported by Bloomberg News. With plans to introduce the $3,499 headset to international markets following the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in June, Apple aims to rejuvenate demand for its ambitious venture.
The company has undertaken extensive training sessions for hundreds of employees from its international stores in Cupertino, California, preparing them to showcase the capabilities of the Vision Pro to customers. Markets including Germany, France, Australia, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and China are expected to be among the first to embrace the device.
The expansion of the Vision Pro’s availability comes at a crucial time for Apple, as it seeks to diversify its product offerings amidst slowing iPhone sales. While initial excitement surrounded the launch of the headset, analysts note a deceleration in demand in recent months. However, Apple’s commitment to expanding its presence in international markets, including China, underscores its determination to drive innovation and capture new opportunities in the evolving landscape of mixed-reality technology.
