After watching the full vision pro presentation, the technology is extremely impressive and it excites me. On the other hand, at this point it’s extremely unaffordable and I think it’ll be better once the design is refined.

I get the whole WALL-E comparison but I don’t think EVERYONE is going to end up like that. I could see this device really taking off in certain career fields and become a toy for the upper middle class and up.

The fact that Apple didn’t go all in with this as VR and instead made it more of an AR device means that they still think people should be in tune with the real world in some fashion

We’re finally in the future

Music has a new 'Crossfade Between Songs' feature

I just don’t see any reason why this is a must buy I’d rather buy a cheaper good vr headset

applehealthcare+ soon

Once it gets cheap enough it’ll be the new norm at jobs and you’ll receive this for example instead of a work laptop or something

Also consider software restrictions and how you probably won’t be able to pirate on it

It'll be GOAT eventually

Probably won't be in our lifetimes, or maybe when we're all 70 years old

when you think about it 3.5K really does seem like a fair price, granted I can't afford one, but if you were to buy 2 4K OLED TVs on their own that would cost you upwards of 2K, add in all the cameras, the expensive lenses and the fact that it has a computer chip in it and the price starts to make sense

It will not take that long. Did you see the demo today? Now that the D***-Swinging Capital Juggernaut has entered the arena, this s*** will be GOAT by the second or third-gen

Also that commercial with that dad and his kids where he’s wearing the thing is awful

Still can't import files into Music on iPhone / iPad or edit song metadata in iOS 17. F***

I’ll wait at least 3 iterations before buying the visions

i find the thought process so strange though, gamers couldn’t be properly convinced to strap a headset on to play technically the most immersive games you can find

broader audiences couldn’t be convinced to put them on to watch movies, do work, play games

but the idea of taking features from your phone and pc that you already own and floating them around your living room in the same form factor seems appealing

I’m probably just more confused about why vr keeps flopping

the one thing that made this weird, a brand new product and no live demo

yesterday demonstrated again, how we are stuck in a demo phase of vr

Ugh this screams Google Glass all over again

Not even complaining about that price tbh cause I already know this s*** boutta be 10k once it hits the aftermarket anyway might as well become an early adopter and get in at that price point while you can

And let’s be honest those that are complaining about the price prob were never even considering buying it to begin with

US only too

Eyeballs thing is stupid, there are some really neat features here but I think it has an inherently dystopian sheen that will put a lot of people off, nobody wants to become a pod person

THE FUTURE IS NOW

VR hasn’t flopped at at all lol

Meta sells more Oculus headsets than Microsoft sells Xboxes

Stop falling for the midwit news cycle or just because you don’t use it yourself and project that into where society and culture is heading in 2 years, 5 years, and certainly 10 years

selling a lot doesnt mean being used regularly and meta pivoting all their headsets to be ar focused along with apple launching a nearly entirely ar headset might mean something about the state of vr currently

they advertise this thing being good in meetings/facetime but how do the other people see you?
