While it was expected for this event to happen, it’s important to mention that the pricey headset is being offered at a high price in India. Independent investigations found that physical stores in places like New Delhi and Jaipur are selling the 256GB version for more than Rs 4 lakh (around $4800), which is considerably higher than the retail price in the US.
The launch of the Apple Vision Pro in the US has stirred global excitement, including in tech-savvy cities like Bengaluru. Despite its unavailability in India, enthusiasts eagerly anticipate its arrival. However, the steep pricing observed in Indian markets presents a significant barrier to accessibility. As discussions persist and demand grows, attention remains focused on the potential future availability and affordability of this cutting-edge technology in India.
