Although the Apple Vision Pro is not yet officially available in France, importers have been offering it for purchase for several weeks. At Rakuten, the VR headset is reduced by several hundred euros.
Two options exist today for those wishing to obtain theApple Vision Pro : buy it from an importer or rent it for a few weeks, paying only a fraction of the purchase price. The mixed reality headset is not yet officially sold in France.
There is even a third option which is certainly not the simplest and most economical unless there is an opportunity: going to the United States to buy it. But it’s not worth it since you can order it directly, but unofficially in France on Rakuten.
Apple Vision Pro: a price drop of several hundred euros on Rakuten
A few days after the availability of the Apple Vision Pro in the United States, it was already offered for sale on Rakuten, but at a full price. While it was necessary to pay €4,599 to buy it on the site in Februarywe find it there now from €3449 (new and sealed). This is in fact the price offered by the cheapest seller, with an estimated delivery time of between one and two weeks. Some retailers even ship it in 3 business days.
The good news is that you can buy the Apple Vision Pro even cheaper right now. It is thanks to a immediate reduction of €50 with promo code PAQUESTOLE50. This code is only valid on April 1, 2024. The price of the headset thus increases to €3,399.
And as if that wasn’t enough, Rakuten also offers a prize pool of €172 to €195 on your loyalty account depending on the seller chosen. THE headset thus virtually costs €3,226 at the best price on the e-commerce site.
As a reminder, the Apple Vision Pro is offered in the United States at the recommended price of $3,500 in its basic version (256 GB of storage). The price goes up to €3,900 for the 1 TB version.

A little clarification is necessary to finish. As the Apple Vision Pro is not yet officially available in France, some restrictions apply if you decide to purchase it. First of all, the interface is only in English. Then, certain features are not yet accessible in Europe. And to finish, you will not be able to benefit from Apple after-sales service. It is therefore a choice to be made with full knowledge of the facts.
