A recent report from a Chinese investor news service has sparked speculation about the launch date of Apple's highly anticipated Vision Pro headset. According to the report from Wall Street Insights, the headset is scheduled to be released in the last week of January.

While the exact launch date remains uncertain, the report suggests that the Vision Pro will hit the shelves on Saturday, January 27 in the United States. However, some experts speculate that the report may actually be referring to January 26, which falls on Friday in the United States and aligns better with Apple's past launch patterns.

Historically, Apple has preferred to unveil its hardware products on weekdays to ensure maximum media coverage and stock market reaction. Additionally, Fridays have been the company's favored day for new device launches. This further supports the notion that January 26 is a more likely date for the Vision Pro's release.

Apple has refrained from providing a specific timeline for pre-orders and the official launch, stating only that the Vision Pro headset will be unveiled "early" this year. Well-known Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has previously suggested that the headset may arrive in late January or early February, coinciding with the recent report from China. On the other hand, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman predicts a retail launch in February.

Considering Apple's penchant for significant dates in its product launches, some speculate that the company may plan a special event coinciding with the 40th anniversary of the original Mac introduction on January 24th, 1984. It is possible that pre-orders for the Vision Pro may open on Friday, January 26, in conjunction with any commemorative event.

As for the pricing of the Vision Pro headset, despite some concerns about its high cost, it is essential to remember the significant advancement in technology. Comparing it to the price of the first Mac purchased in 1990 at $3500, the Vision Pro is reported to be 10,000 times more powerful, justifying its potential price point.

Overall, with the launch of the Vision Pro headset anticipated in late January or early February, Apple enthusiasts are eagerly awaiting official confirmation from the tech giant.
