The debut of the Apple Vision Pro has ignited considerable excitement within the virtual reality (VR) headset market, showcasing extraordinary capabilities that transcend conventional VR devices. Despite Apple’s reluctance to categorize it merely as a VR headset, the recently revealed ‘Spatial Computer’ has captivated tech enthusiasts globally.
In the United States, the Apple Vision Pro comes with a hefty price tag of $3499. Many eagerly anticipate its availability in Pakistan, pondering over its potential cost. However, determining its price in Pakistan isn’t as straightforward as a simple currency conversion from USD to Pakistani Rupees (PKR).
Apart from the base market value, several additional expenses such as import taxes, duties, and retailer margins need consideration. Factoring in these elements, the projected price of the Apple Vision Pro in Pakistan is anticipated to surpass its USD equivalent.
At the current exchange rate, $3499 roughly amounts to Rs. 970,053. Incorporating import taxes and duties, the price could easily exceed the Rs. 1,100,000 threshold. Moreover, retailers typically apply an additional margin to ensure profitability, further elevating the cost for consumers.
With these factors in mind, it’s estimated that the price of the Apple Vision Pro in Pakistan might hover around Rs. 1,200,000. However, this estimation remains conservative, considering the economic landscape of Pakistan.
Furthermore, it’s worth noting that the $3499 price tag pertains to the base model with 256 GB storage. The variant with 1 TB storage is priced at $3899 in the US. Given the enhanced storage capacity and supplementary features, the price for the fully loaded variant in Pakistan could exceed Rs. 1,300,000 at retail outlets.
