If you want 512GB, that'll cost you $3,699, while the 1TB variant costs $3,899. Additionally, Zeiss optical inserts for reading cost $99, or $149 for prescription inserts.

That's right: The Apple Vision Pro can cost a total of $4,048 with all the option boxes ticked.

Additionally, you can dish out $499 for AppleCare+, which gives you unlimited repairs of accidental damage, priority access to Apple expert, and express replacement service. It's not cheap, but it might be a good idea given the cost of the device.

Apple's pre-order page for the Vision Pro revealed a few previously unknown details about the device. Namely, the complete tech specs, which reveal that the Micro-OLED displays in the Vision Pro have 23 million pixels and support three refresh rates, 90Hz, 96Hz, and 100Hz.

The Vision Pro is powered by an 8-core M2 CPU with 4 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores, a 10-core GPU, a 16-core Neural Engine, and 16GB unified RAM memory. Inside, there's also the R1 chip with 12-ms photon-to-photon latency, and 256GB/S memory bandwidth.

Other tidbits of note include a stereoscopic 3D main camera system with 6.5 stereo megapixels and an f/2.00 aperture. There's also a ton of sensors including two high-res cameras, six world-facing tracking cameras, and four eye-tracking camera, a TrueDepth camera, a LiDAR scanner, four inertial measurement units, a flicker sensor, and an ambient light sensor. The Optic ID system offers iris-based biometric authentication.

As far as audio goes, Apple says the device supports Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking, Personalized Spatial Audio and audio ray tracing, and H2-to-H2 ultra-low-latency connection to the second-gen AirPods Pro. The Vision Pro also has a six-microphone array with directional beamforming.

The weight of the entire unit varies a bit based on configuration, so it can be between 21.2 and 22.9 ounces (600-650g). The battery is separate, and weighs an additional 353g.

Finally, in the device's FAQ, Apple gives us a couple of new details about the Vision Pro. Perhaps most importantly, the company says that, while the Vision Pro is currently only available for sale in the U.S. and designed for customers there, it "is great for travel and when U.S. customers travel abroad, the experience will remain consistent. That means all of their apps and content will remain accessible while traveling, so they can use apps and enjoy music, TV, and movies."
