    I’m always really impressed on how Apple can walk on a thin line, right in between “Oh, that’s a really cool feature I didn’t know I needed” and “Are we living in a fucking dystopian world ?”

      I wouldn’t say ever, there are some really high end headsets out there, but those are even more expensive than I’m expecting this to be

    I love me some Apple, but boy do they like the smell of their own farts.

    Jesus Christ is there no where on the internet where people that actually like apple can talk?

      I think going to an open source, anti capitalistic, anti monopoly, consumer friendly, privacy oriented social media platform is the wrong place to go fanboy about apple lmao

      I don’t think there are many apple fanboys here. Maybe people that are fans of the products, but definitely not a lot of people who love the company

        Well to me you sound like a bunch of whiny babies that contribute nothing but negativity.

          What are you contributing with this post?

          Is criticism not a contribution?

          edit: i’ve been reading through this thread, I don’t think anyone has unnecessarily shit on apple, i think the closest thing to that was someone saying they smell of their own farts

          You’re really overreacting to nothing.

    Hard to care about anything iMessage-related as long as it’s not cross-platform.

      The widgets do have continuity, so you can have an app just on your phone and see the widget on you mac, so for instance, i can have the Myfitnesspal widget on my mac to see my hydration just there on the desktop.

        Well yeah. Mac even had widgets since like 2007. I think they removed them at some point.

        But this supports all iOS widgets it looks like, so I suppose the ecosystem will be significantly better than any other platform

        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

          Thank you. I just screenshotted this comment. I think you might be the single most wrong person on the planet right now.

            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.

    Strange, since I can afford Macbook pros with real specs not the entry level joke, I am not interested in those anymore. :/ Notch, lack of ports, glued … Fragile in the sense that I would be dead inside if I scratched the chassis.

    maybe a second hand model… dunno

      Notch is really something that you forget is there 5 seconds into using. Ports are actually fairly numerous, at least compared to the previous models. 3x USB-C/Thunderbolt ports, HDMI, SD card, headphone. Plus the mag-safe charger so you don’t have to use a USB-C port to charge (but you still can).

        Nope sorry, I just had a case this weekend where a RJ45 would have saved me a day. There are classic USB-3 on my partner’s laptop but strangely, those refused to power up two different 1TiB mechanical drive.

        Latest thinkpad t14 gen3 sports a full size rj45. thus, it is not impossible to have thin laptop and the right connectivity.
