Vision Pro is launching on February 2nd with a good number of first-party accessories<\/a> and in-box items. If you\u2019re shelling out at least $3,500 for the thing, you might as well protect it from scratches and dust, and kit it out with everything under the sun while you\u2019re at it. Here are a few great options:<\/p>\n

Third-party Accessories<\/h3>\n

Spigen Klasden Pouch \u2013 $90<\/h4>\n

There are scant few cases that were built from the ground-up for Vision Pro beyond the first-party case from Apple. Still, the headset\u2019s form-factor isn\u2019t terribly unique, and you may be able to get away with something meant for Quest. Still, Spigen is well known for robust and design-oriented protective phone cases and accessories, making it a good choice since it was specifically created for Vision Pro. Spigen\u2019s Klasden Pouch features a rigid exterior, padded interior, pillowy divider, and built-in organization for cables, battery pack, and a secret AirTag compartment too so you can always tabs on your Vision Pro.<\/em> Pre-order through Spigen ($90)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

BandWerk Headstraps \u2013 $159<\/h4>\n

You don\u2019t need <\/em>a Nappa leather head band for Vision Pro, but then again, unless you\u2019re developing the next big AR app for Apple\u2019s continuing line of headsets, you don\u2019t really need <\/em>a Vision Pro either. This luxury leather head band from BandWerk is handcrafted in Germany, <\/em>featuring high-quality Italian leather. The supplied Dual Loop band is probably more comfortable, but this one is just prettier. Available in brown, grey, creme, grey-orange, and black.<\/em> Buy direct from BandWerk ($159)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

GOSETH Clear Case \u2013 $25<\/h4>\n

Vision Pro\u2019s faceplate is made of curved glass panel that\u2019s just begging to be dropped and shattered. While we can\u2019t say for certain whether this shock-absorbing TPU bumper case will do the job of protecting your Vision Pro, it\u2019s a good first line of defense in making sure you don\u2019t get dings or scratches on your new headset. Sure, it looks like the cheapie phone case you get for free with a mid-tier Android, but you\u2019ll probably be glad you have at least something<\/em> the first time the headset takes a tumble. Available in clear, and black, red, blue, white, and grey. Buy on Amazon ($25)<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Lens Cleaning Pen<\/h4>\n

Apple hasn\u2019t published a guide yet on exactly how to clean your Vision Pro. But like with all XR headsets, the more delicate you are with your lenses, the longer they will be in pristine condition. That means no abrasive cloths, like wiping them off with your shirt or a tissue, or using harsh chemicals that may strip away delicate coatings. One of the best ways of doing quick occasional maintenance (short of using the supplied polishing cloth) is a lens cleaning pen like the one photographers use to clean their camera lenses. You can nab one for as low as $7 on Amazon, or a whole set with multiple brushes, wipes, carrying cases, the works. Check them out on Amazon<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Belkin Battery Holder for Apple Vision Pro \u2013 $50<\/h4>\n

Technically offered direct through Apple, this Vision Pro battery case allows for a convenient and versatile hands-free experience, letting you clip the battery onto a belt or pants, while the cross-body strap gives those without clip access a great way to be hands-free while experiencing Apple Vision Pro. Buy on Apple.com ($50)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

ZEISS Optical Inserts \u2013 Starting at $99.00<\/h4>\n

Like many XR headset, glasses just don\u2019t fit inside Vision Pro. And for fear of scratching either Vision Pro or your glasses, you really shouldn\u2019t try. ZEISS, a trusted naem in eyewear, is offering two types of optical inserts that snap into the headset, which should already be personally fit to your unique head. Available in prescription or readers. Buy on Apple.com (starting at $99)<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
