Vision Pro Demos at Apple Stores in UK, Canada, and More Begin July 12

Apple Vision Pro launches in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, and the U.K. on Friday, July 12, and you will be able to try out the spatial computer at your local Apple Store in those countries starting on the same day next month.

Apple Vision Pro Demo
Starting on Friday, July 12 at 8 a.m. local time, until the end of the day on Sunday, July 14, Apple Stores in the five aforementioned countries will allow customers to receive a Vision Pro demo on a first-come, first-served basis. As happened in the U.S., demos will likely shift to an appointment basis starting on the following Monday.

Given that the Vision Pro costs thousands of dollars, the 30-minute demo provides customers with a free way to experience spatial computing without having to spend a fortune. During the demo, customers will learn how to navigate the visionOS operating system, and explore built-in apps such as Apple TV, Photos, and Safari.

Vision Pro will be available to pre-order in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, and the U.K. starting Friday, June 28 at 5 a.m. Pacific Time. The spatial computer is also launching in China, Japan, and Singapore, with pre-orders starting on Thursday, June 13, at 6 p.m. Pacific Time in those countries, ahead of a June 28 launch.

visionOS 1.2 adds support for languages in these additional countries and regions, and visionOS 2 with a range of new features will be available later this year.

Vision Pro first launched in the U.S. in early February.

Or how many are sitting on shelves at home doing nothing.

No info on pricing. Will it be as much as the Vision Pro in China at 29,999 yuan ($4,190) ('https://www.cnbc.com/2024/06/12/apple-vision-pro-to-debut-in-china-japan-and-singapore-this-month.html')?
The pricing of AVP in all of those countries is already available, just look the appropriate Apple Store website

Cut the price Apple! Take the loss and allow wider spread adoption. Developers need a bigger user-base to justify development. You did this with the 1st generation iPhone less than a year in.

Someone please take this thing out back and put it out of its misery so that Apple can refocus on what people actually want, which is definitely not this.
Please. You sound like the people screaming the iPad was DOA. Keep doubling down.

Written from my AVP.
