Apple's M3 MacBook Air offers the best bang for the buck for most people with fantastic performance and quality.

☆ Preorders for Apple's $3,500 Vision Pro are already backed up a month

Apple's Vision Pro became available to preorder on Friday at 8 a.m. AdvertisementPreorders launched for Apple's new Vision Pro early Friday morning, and it looks like customers were eager to snap up the first available units. The Vision Pro, with its sky-high price tag, was always expected to be a smaller launch than something like the newest iPhone. Earlier this month, analyst and Apple supply chain expert Ming-Chi Kuo predicted that the company would produce only 60,000 to 80,000 Vision Pro units for the initial launch. "Since the shipment is not large, I believe that Vision Pro will sell out soon after the release," Kuo wrote on X.

☆ Apple $3,499 Vision Pro headset now available to order ahead of Feb. 2 release
▼ + stars: | 2024-01-19 | by ( Alex Koller | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

Preorders for Apple 's $3,499 Vision Pro headset began Thursday morning ahead of its U.S. release on Feb. 2. The Vision Pro is Apple's first new product category since it released the Apple Watch in 2015. Wall Street doesn't expect Apple to sell it in the same quantities as it does its other products, like the iPhone, Apple Watch and Mac, at least not at first. UBS' David Vogt estimates Apple could generate about $1.4 billion in revenue from the Vision Pro in 2024, assuming Apple ships about 400,000 handsets. The entry-level Vision Pro comes with 256GB of storage and the same M2 chip that Apple includes in some of its Macs.
