      Do you think that with that price it will be successful enough to make new versions?

      Also how often would they release a new version? I doubt they would release a yearly headset.

      Tbh this is just my opinion but i don’t think the vision pro devices will have a long lifetime

          Like i said, it’s my opinion. We’ve seen many products in the tech space die because of the steep prices. Apple themselves has done it a couple times

          Could you explain your side instead of just insulting me?

          Edit: i don’t think just the price would kill it off, but the small target audience paired with the price will. I think apple should have made this product to convince the average consumer that a headset like this is worth instead of jumping head first into the Pro space. I think they should have done something similar to what Facebook did with the Oculus 1. A cheap product aimed at the average gamer, but with their famous apple polish

          Maybe it won’t die, but I think the steep price definitely made the headset more of a meme. As a VR/AR fan I hope I’m wrong

            If you don’t get it you don’t get it. Idk what to tell you. This is gonna change everything. Not as fast as the iPhone did at that price point, but it and the platforms it makes possible will be ubiquitous eventually just the same.

                If Lemmy still exists in 4 years I hope you haven’t deleted your comment or your account. I will remember you, and I will be back.

                  You have yet to explain your reasons lol. Do you even know?? I usually don’t respond to comments like yours but i genuinely want to know your POV

                  I have no doubt the DNA of this device will live in our future with AR glasses getting smaller and smaller each year, but those things have been products for years and concepts for decades

                  Apple really isn’t doing much this time around to innovate concepts, but the technology is there fs. Not necessarily new technology, but they’re the only ones willing to put all of the technology in a consumer device and charge what they’re charging. There have been enterprise and concept devices capable of doing similar things for a while now tho

                    All the same reasons the iPhone was successful. It’s cooler than anything that came before it and people want it. I want one so bad and I have no practical use for it. But being able to hang out on a secluded beach with a massive TV window floating in front of me? You’re just out of touch if you think people aren’t going to want that.
