It’s no secret that designing, prototyping, and then building devices like the Apple Vision Pro is a costly business. It’s also no secret that Apple has more money than most, too.
That’s likely how Apple was able to deal with the tariffs itself, rather than passing the cost on to its customers. You only have to look at how Microsoft has dramatically raised prices almost across its entire product line or go to the grocery store to see how different it could have been.
