As for the initial configuration of the Vision Pro headband, it may adopt a simpler design. If users want a better wearing experience, or even want to continue using the Vision Pro in a lying position, they will obviously have to spend extra money to purchase the Vision Pro exclusive accessories.
As the Vision Pro is currently secured primarily by a headband that tightens from the back of the head, Apple may also introduce additional headband accessories that can distribute the weight, thereby increasing the stability of the Vision Pro when worn.
Apple also plans to showcase the Vision Pro to more people, and is expected to set up a display section in the App Store so that more consumers can experience the device. Apple has also created an app for iPhone that allows App Store staff to scan the user's face and help provide headphones and cushion accessories that are more suitable for head wear and fit.
Vision Pro is not expected to enter the market until 2024, and will be sold in May at the latest, so Apple still has nearly a year to adjust its sales plan for this product. There are also reports that Apple has started to develop the next virtual vision headset, and the price is expected to be lower than the Vision Pro's price of US$5, in order to attract more consumer groups in the market.
