Just an FYI before you loaded individuals smash the buy button

https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-vision/apple-vision-pro

When you buy directly from Apple you're asked to use your iPhone or iPad to 3d scan your face so that you can get a better fit (get measured for your Light Seal and head bands.

And for people who need prescription lenses, those are also custom order and your vision pro would come with Zeiss Optical inserts.

You most likely won't be getting this service from Kogan.

- Jinster on 30/01/2024 - 14:48
  
  I suspect Apple would include a range of seal types/sizes in the box and the software will recommend a specific set for you after you scan your face. But who knows. Unboxing videos would arrive on youtube in a few days time. Can't wait for those to bring us more clarity.

  "You most likely won't be getting this service from Kogan."
  
  this is what I was thinking to comment after I was done scrolling through the rest of the comments.
  
  if you are serious about this. why would you buy it from kogan of all places instead of apple. and some comments suggest this is actually more expensive than at apple.
  - Nillionaire on 02/02/2024 - 22:15

Kogan only making a small-ish profit on these.

$AUD6349 = $USD4200.

Base model sells for $3499. Assume 8% sales tax = $280. Most resellers are paying at least $150 above full retail (including covering sales tax). Resellers would put another $150 on top of this price to Kogan, so Kogan is buying them for about $4079 and selling them in Australia for $4200. They will eat a fair bit on shipping (boxes are huge). Not an outrageous mark up, really.
- Jinster on 30/01/2024 - 14:53
  
  More surprising is how Kogan managed to get these. I thought Apple only sold these direct to consumer, with such restricted quantities. Did Kogan have a team clicking away from launch to buy them for the company? Wouldn't surprise me given how the company started.
  - vetopower on 30/01/2024 - 15:36

    There are established buying groups (ie resellers) that Kogan could get them from. Very lucrative business in the US. They basically aggregate sales of items from individual buyers and onsell them to foreign market suppliers like Kogan.
  - harshbdmmaster718 on 30/01/2024 - 19:21
    
    ngl wouldn't be surprised if this was the $500 alibaba version. (yea they already cloned it with crappy internals)
    
    pretty sure kogan has sold knock offs before such as apple/samsung earpods and cables etc. usually resulted in a refund.

      actually I thought they mentioned meta because they wanted to say "meta makes better vr headsets that are much cheaper".
      I use the word meta but not as in the company so it just stands out to me when people say the word metaverse.
      
      to be honest if anyone uses the term "metaverse" as a word I instantly think they are one of those types who "documents" things. you know like "I am recording this video just to document this" and post it on their non existent youtube channel for the future people to see in utopia lol.

      In web browsers, Netflix is max 720p, with low bitrate.
      
      So I guess you could, but it wouldn't look as good as the worst TV or a decent phone.
      
      So while it's technically theoretically possible, the real answer is no, you won't bother watching it in this, as it will suck, so wait until the dedicated app is out.

None of the necessary customisation of the lens and face piece, like you get when buying direct from Apple

US RRP is around 4200 AUD, not six and a half grand

Interesting, but not a bargain.
- l o l on 30/01/2024 - 14:36
  
  +2
  
  US RRP is $3.5k USD, which is about $5.3k AUD. And price in US usually does not include tax.
  
  If you take the iPhone 15 Pro 256gb as an example, it's $1,099 USD and $2,049 AUD, or "86% more moneys".
  
  Applying the same rate, the Vision Pro would cost here $6,525 AUD.
  Not sure what's the actual RRP here, and 2-3% off is not a huge bargain, but it's technically a deal I guess? 🤷‍♂️
  
  But I assume the actual discount is not the main reason for this post, but the fact that you can actually get it somewhere at the moment. Not that any sane person should.
- the-fuzz on 30/01/2024 - 14:38
  
  US RRP = $3499 USD - today is $5300
- Jinster on 30/01/2024 - 14:42

  Add 3% foreign currency conversion fee, and 10% GST. It works out pretty close.
  
  But it will lack the customisation (possibly) and there could be some geo-restrictions in its use since it's not released outside of USA.
  
  I will be an early adopter of AVP personally, but I think this is too much risk if I can't hook it up to my Apple account (or something else going wrong).
  
  Also, there was a time Apple released different hardware products in different geopolitical regions due to differing RF laws. I am not sure if that's still the case these days.

  Apple never innovates on tech they just wait and look at everyone elses failings in an area and then makes good software and use the refined hardware mainly from samsung.
  
  PSVR2 has 90% of the stuff in this for $900 in Aus or around $660 if youre in Japan with the tax free and yes the PSVR2 has HDR
  
  Save yourself over 5k lol.
  
  Sure I cant be a (profanity) with a battery that dies every 2 hours but id rather a similar experience and 5k in my pocket.
  
  Apple is reaching hard as their running out of ideas cant keep flogging the same phone year after year and now eu after their bs 30% on everything tax.

    Firstly, 6k for a vr headset is crazy, but not downvoting because OP posted this for fun, like the 25k GPU someone posted last year :D
    
    PSVR2 has 90% of the stuff in this for $900
    
    I have the original PSVR (the PS4 version). This seems to be a different kind of device.
    ie, for productivity, I hooked my PSVR up to my desktop thinking I'd have an awesome developer environment. Nope, fuzzy/blurry.
    
    Using it for gaming, several times I've tripped over the cables playing super hot, etc.
    
    I haven't read about this Apple product, but I'm guessing you can use it on PT / away from your other hardware with it's built in battery, where as PSVR need the AC power plug.
    
    Apple is reaching hard as their running out of ideas cant keep flogging the same phone year after year and now eu after their bs 30% on everything tax.
    
    Yeah, a VR headset seems like a weird thing for them to be hyping up. And at 6k, it's going to be really niche. If it's not easy to port VR apps to, who is going to bother with such a small user base?
    - RBZ10 on 31/01/2024 - 14:40
      
      Like i said check in march for psvr2 pc driver from ivry on twitter.
      
      In terms of hardware there isnt much diff to most vr headset other than slapping a macbook to their head in essence, ill give the props for the size and design of the unit but really what are ppl going to be doing on it apart from what can already be done on a phone?
      
      Wont be able to video or photo edit on it which is the main productivity thing on mac outside coding.
      
      The cable thing shouldnt really be an issue as you arent moving much if productive.
      
      Targeting the wrong market really, thats why sony has shifted with their new headset to workplaces with cad etc.
      
      But yeah 6k wow will this be the unfailable companies first big fail, i dont consider the wireless coil charger they made a big fail just a fail as not main product.

    Not from all the reviews I have seen, early reviews are all saying that its comparable to quest in tech (so the only difference is the luxury feel). I own a quest 3 and its phenomenal for the price.
