Apple's Vision Pro Faces Limitations Outside US, Affects Global User Experience

Global users face limitations with Apple's Vision Pro, impacting the international user experience.

Apple has warned users about various limits while using Vision Pro outside of the United States.

Vision Pro User Experience Will Suffer Greatly Outside United States

While you can pre-order the headset outside of the region, you won't be able to fully utilize the Vision Pro's feature set. This implies the Vision Pro user experience will differ outside of the United States. If you live outside the United States, it is better to save your money until the firm officially makes the headset available in your location, as per WCCFTech.

Apple's Vision Pro pre-orders have recently gone live, and delivery dates have already been pushed out until March. This demonstrates that the headset is in high demand. However, it might be assumed that the company's supply is limited.

According to prior reports, Apple aims to sell only 60,000 to 80,000 Vision Pro headsets. This could be another reason why supplies have been pushed back until March. If you live outside of the United States, we recommend deferring your choice to purchase the Vision Pro headset.

Vision Pro Launch: Navigating Initial Limitations and Anticipating Wider Availability

According to Apple's FAQ on the pre-order page, the Vision Pro experience will differ between users in the United States and those who live elsewhere. The company explained why there will be limitations in other places.

  • Vision Pro only supports English (U.S.) for typing, Siri, and Dictation.
  • U.S. Apple ID is required for Apple Music and TV app purchases.
  • Zeiss only accepts prescription orders from U.S. eye care professionals.
  • Restriction to access specific apps in other countries.
  • No Apple Support in regions outside of the United States.

While these constraints will likely have an influence on the overall user experience, Apple should consider expanding the headset's availability to other locations. The business has already stated that the Vision Pro launch would be available in more places in the coming months.

Canada and the United Kingdom. will potentially be among the first to receive Apple's Vision Pro headset ahead of the company's WWDC 2024 presentation. Pre-ordered headsets will be available on February 2.
