For almost ten years, there have been rumours about Apple stepping into virtual and augmented reality. Finally, at WWDC 2023, they unveiled Vision Pro. The first device with visionOS will be available on February 2nd, and you can start placing pre-orders on January 19th at 8 AM ET / 5 AM PT. Even though Apple never officially admitted to developing the headset, numerous rumours circulated over the years speculating about its features. Now, the reality is revealed with Vision Pro, a mixed-reality device that can deliver both virtual and augmented reality experiences. All Revealed Features and Specifications of Apple Vision Pro Global Release Date Apple introduced the Vision Pro at WWDC in June 2023, mentioning it would be out 'early next year.' Surprisingly, it arrived in January 2024, a bit earlier than expected, but the announcement just before CES was strategic for grabbing attention. Initially, the headset is only available in the U.S., with Apple stating that other countries would have to wait until 'later next year,' as mentioned during the unveiling in 2023. Speculations in July 2023 by Gurman hinted that the U.K. and Canada might see the launch shortly after the U.S., while Asia and other parts of Europe might have to wait until later in 2024 or even 2025.

It may be uncomfortable for many people to hold the X3 Pro with one hand. Except for the front glass, the device is built with plastic material (or Glasstic). It has IP53 certified dust and splash protection feature. On the right side, POCO X3 Pro has the volume rocker and a side-mounted power button. The power button also serves as a fingerprint scanner.

The color reproduction is satisfactory but still, it lags behind the vibrant colors offered by the AMOLED screens. It is somewhat disappointing, as several low-priced competitors (like Redmi Note 10) are offering AMOLED screens in this price range. Like the ancestor POCO X3, the Pro version sports a 120Hz refresh rate. It also offers a 240Hz touch sampling rate! You can enjoy a butter-smooth navigating experience by virtue of its high refresh rate option. Its touch response is awesome. In this phone, POCO provides 450 nits typical and 534 nits peak brightness. It maintains standards allowing you to work outdoor conveniently. But we have seen similar specs in X3. An updated brightness level could make X3 Pro a better deal! In the Pro version, people will definitely expect some advanced features.

Its 8MP ultra-wide camera offers 119 degrees of field-of-view with an aperture of f/2.2. This sensor can take pretty photos maintaining dynamic range, details, and astonishing color vibration. However, in low light conditions, the image quality is comparatively poor. The rest two cameras both feature a 2MP sensor with an f/2.4 aperture. These sensors deliver average performance. Read Xiaomi Poco M2 Pro Review: Decent Camera with Smooth Gaming You can shoot a maximum of 4K videos at 30fps. The quality of the video is quite satisfactory.

The front camera features a 20MP sensor with an aperture of f/2.2. This camera is built with Samsung ISOCELL plus S5K3T2 sensor. In presence of proper lights, this sensor can capture good photos with proper edge detection and color punches. The color tones are close to natural.
