Apple Vision Pro launched last week with sales reportedly crossing 200,000 units before the mixed reality headset hit retail stores in the country. Apple’s first release in a new product category since it introduced the first Apple Watch nearly a decade ago is currently only available in the US, but the company plans to bring the Vision Pro to markets in China, Canada, and the UK next. That might be happening soon. A new report claims that the headset will arrive in the Chinese market in the coming months.

According to Chinese outlet IT Home, citing a report from Asian outlet Wall Street News, the Apple Vision Pro will make its China debut as early as April or the latest by May. The information comes from supply chain sources, who also reportedly said that the device’s registration with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology in China was nearly complete. The sources also added the first batch of sales for headset in China would be “relatively tight.”Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, too, had reported last month that the Apple Vision Pro would hit the shelves in China, Canada and the UK following its US-only launch. The Cupertino, California-based tech giant reportedly expects to ship 5,00,000 Vision Pro units in 2024.
