We thought Apple had plans to launch the Vision Pro in China earlier than it does now.
Apple has only confirmed that China will get the Vision Pro this year
Apple expert Mark Gurman has said multiple times that China is next, and it might happen soon – he mentioned that in the launch month of February, and now it's May. But now, Gorman, who has spoken to people familiar with the plans, claims that Apple will expand headphone sales shortly after WWDC on June 10.
WWDC is important
This is the most important for Apple in many years, because the company will define its vision for artificial intelligence, a field in which it has not been very active, but the company has plans for big things, because in addition to the collaboration with OpenAI most likely. ChatGPT and perhaps also Google With Gemini, the company designed its own AI chips for new server complexes that would serve information from the cloud requested by the products. If the work can be done locally, that's likely Apple's goal.
He does not guarantee which countries will participate in the tour after the launch in the United States, but he does reveal that Apple is training employees in Germany, France, Australia, Japan, South Korea, Singapore and China. It is unlikely that only these countries will win, because Great Britain is absent. It is impossible to predict whether tiny Norway will join the second group, and perhaps China will join the first.
“Apple Vision Pro is close to launching in several countries, possibly in April, but Norway won't be able to launch it until sometime after June,” he said, referring to the code leak and the names of the following countries. This list also includes Great Britain. We consider this list to be the most correct, so Norway will not receive this summer:
- Australia
- Japan
- China
- Singapore
- Great Britain
- Canada
- France
- Germany
- Japanese
- Korean
We gave the Vision Pro an 8 out of 10 in our February review:
Apple Vision Pro sets a new standard for AR and VR experiences, but its use is limited by weight, battery life and currently limited app selection.
