Belkin today announced the launch of a new Travel Bag for the Apple Vision Pro, with the accessory joining the recently unveiled Belkin-branded Head Strap.

The Travel Bag from Belkin is not quite as large as Apple's own Vision Pro travel carrier, measuring in at 9 inches by 8 inches by 5 inches. The smaller size will allow the bag to better fit inside a travel bag or backpack, but it is not as small as the WaterField Designs travel case.

Belkin's Travel Bag has multiple compartments to house the Vision Pro and accessories like the battery, power adapter, and additional headbands like Belkin's Head Strap. It can be carried using a handle or a strap, and there is cushioning to keep the device safe. The bag comes in gray, so it will presumably stay cleaner than Apple's white case.

Belkin's Travel Bag is priced at $99.95, so it is $100 cheaper than Apple's Travel Case. It can be purchased from the Apple website.

Apple is also selling the Belkin Head Strap, a $49.95 accessory that goes over the top of the head to make the Vision Pro more comfortable to wear by better distributing weight.

Not sure this is a smart move. I would have called this a compact travel bag that also fits Vision Pro. But then again nobody is going to pay $100 just for a travel bag that's not from a fashion brand.
 
actually I like the idea but only if the bag is not light weight. AVP is heavy enough already for me.
 
Apple's Vision Pro case is very nice. Feels good to touch.

9"x8"x5" for this Belkin bag is a better size to fit in a backpack.
 
That bag looks like it scuffs very easily. I wonder if they'll release a slightly larger bag that I can put that $100 bag in to protect it. That way the investment that protects my investment is protected.
 
I use a case from BestBuy (Insignia VR case for the Meta Quest 3). It is roughly the same size, maybe slightly smaller and lighter. It is only $14.95. Works just as well.

Yep, spend between $4,000 to $5,000 for an AVP, but be sure you only spend $12 to protect and carry it. 🤔
 
Great to see Apple working so closely with just ONE manufacturer on this.

It makes me wonder how much Apple is funding Belkin at the stage. It's pretty obvious that no one in their right mind would set out to produce, manufacture and sell ANY Vision Pro accessory to retail.
 
or buy a. bag for $10 on amazon. I got a nice one lol
A random $10 bag? From counterfeit-filled Amazon? To protect a $3500 Apple Vision?

I wouldn’t trust a random $10 Amazon bag to protect my lunch. Bottom would instantly fall apart and my salad would be scattered across the sidewalk. 🥗🥗🥗

Seeing as Belkin is owned by FoxConn, I'm sure they have an understanding.
 
Spending $3500 for such a piece of modern art, and then skimping on the case? or buy it as lunch/camera/headset case and make believe.
 
$100 is very high for a carry bag. Don't know how many will be buying this.
