Apple's Vision Pro spatial computer is off to a great start.

Shortly after it became available for pre-order, the Vision Pro is now effectively sold out, with shipping times for all models being five to seven weeks, and no units available for in-store pickup in Apple Stores.

The news is unsurprising given earlier reports that Apple probably had to make drastic production cuts following some manufacturing issues.

But now, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo estimates that Apple sold 160,000 to 180,000 Vision Pro units over the weekend, far above his earlier estimates that Apple will only have about 60,000 to 80,000 units in stock at launch. Kuo does say that the demand may have tapered off following the initial rush to buy the headsets.

The Vision Pro's launch date is Feb. 2, and while it may be hard to actually buy one on that date, potential customers can sign up for a demo at their local Apple Store.

Starting at $3,499 with price going over $4,000 with extras, Apple's Vision Pro is one of the most expensive Apple gadgets you can buy, and it probably won't be selling in the millions of units in its first year. There are reports, however, that Apple is already working on next generation variants of the Vision Pro which should be far more wallet-friendly.
