Apple announced that the Apple Vision Pro would be available in early 2024. Quoting from this Wikipedia article: [The Apple Vision Pro] was announced on June 5, 2023, at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference, with availability scheduled for early 2024 in the United States [...].

However, delays may occur. Supply shortages have been widespread in recent years, and the manufacturing of some products announced by Apple has been delayed in the past. Additionally, it has happened that at least one product announced by Apple was quietly cancelled before its release. There has also been speculation about production cuts specifically affecting the Apple Vision Pro.

This market will resolve to YES if it is possible for any willing end consumer to purchase an Apple Vision Pro by 31 March 2024 from Apple's official website.

If sales of the Apple Vision Pro are delayed until after 31 March 2024, or if widespread sales are not possible (e.g., if there is a waiting list) this will resolve to NO.

To make the market more concrete, this question refers exclusively to the United States store (since availability in other countries is currently scheduled for later in 2024).

Update 2023/11/30: For a YES resolution, the ability to place an order for the product (i.e., "add to cart & pay", or something equivalent) is sufficient. Pre-orders count, provided they follow the "add to cart & pay" structure or similar. Immediate shipping availability is not required for a YES resolution.

Apple Vision Pro Mixed Reality Headset to hit Apple Store in Mid January (December 29, 2023)

"According to Kuo’s statement, the Vision Pro is presently in mass production, with a target of 500,000 units set for 2024."

does a preorder count? must it be actively shipping to customers?

@bjubes For a YES resolution, the important thing is being able to place an order (i.e., add the product to the cart & pay). A preorder is fine. Immediate shipping availability is not a requirement for YES.

predicted NO

What if you can purchase online but must set an appointment at a physical Apple Store for pickup and personal fitting, setup, custom prescription lenses, etc.?

predicted YES

@deagol I would count that as yes.

@deagol I agree that would be a YES.
