CUPERTINO, California (Reuters) - Apple Inc on Monday let analysts and media, including Reuters, try its $3,499 Vision Pro headset.

What is immediately clear is the device is not yet meant for a mass market: a test drive requires a setup session with Apple staff and a quick visit with a vision specialist to ensure the headset fits and functions as intended. And the price tag is likely to keep all but the most dedicated Apple fans and business users away.
