The introduction of the Apple Vision Pro has certainly stirred up the VR headset market, boasting remarkable capabilities, although Apple prefers to label it as more than just a simple VR headset. With its recent debut as a ‘Spatial Computer,’ the Apple Vision Pro comes with a hefty price tag of $3499 in the US, prompting speculation about its pricing in Pakistan.
Determining the price in Pakistan isn’t as straightforward as a mere conversion from USD to PKR. Factors such as taxes, duties, and retailer margins must be considered atop the base market value. Therefore, the anticipated price for the Apple Vision Pro in Pakistan is as follows:
At a US price of $3499, which converts to approximately Rs. 970,053, after incorporating substantial import taxes, the figure may likely land around Rs. 1,100,000 or higher. Additionally, accounting for retailer margins – the extra charge added by sellers to turn a profit – the estimated price in Pakistan could be around Rs. 1,200,000. However, this is a conservative estimate considering the current situation in Pakistan.
