Honestly the price sounds about right for early adopters, but I'd
expect a lot of storage and ram for that price. It already sounds
like a MacBook air with multiple cameras and displays strapped to
your face, so I was already thinking north of $1500 to start.

I mean, if it's a essentially a Macbook and an iPhone squished into a
VR headset, then $3500 isn't unrealistic.

If a Valve Index starts a $1000, then the VisionPro was never going
to cost less.

I can't believe the number of people who thought this would be 1k or

Looks like it's going to be an early-adopters only product for a few
years, but I'm curious to see if it gets enough traction to catch on
and eventually start dropping in price.

I'd never use this thing enough to make it worth $3500. In terms of
media nothing beats chilling on the bed or sofa with the 65" OLED (or
iPad). I was hoping more for special social features. I'm still
excited for the potential though, will have to wait for reviews to
really understand the usability.

yeah but lots of rich people in the USA today. look at lulu stores.
$300 sweatpants and they're packed every day of the week. this is DOA
for poor people. the people doing well in the country are doing well
enough that this wont' be a huge deal.

the issue is that if this sells, expect things like graphics cards to
start treading into this territory.

Apple has so successfully individualized privacy that their entire
privacy section didn't mention the privacy invasion of the world
around you that this thing introduces.

So relieved the price is $3499. I think that's very fair for the
cutting edge technology, but it is also so pricy that I am not
tempted to buy it until they make it more accessible in future
generations.

I'm going to assume this is targeted at enterprise because if it's
supposed to be a consumer product then it's going to be an abject
failure unless it's incredibly subsidised by projected App Store
purchases. All the specs they've listed put this north of $2K.

I imagine for things like iPad and iOS apps, it will use the
ipad-hover-cursor-thingy with eye tracking.

For actual office apps and typing, Bluetooth keyboards will be a
must.

I'm shocked there aren't actual XR controllers launching with it for
games - which is really the only fleshed out space for VR - no one
wants to wear a 500g headset all day to edit word documents.
