I honestly doubt this will take off, but it’ll be interesting as a tech demo for what AR/VR can be at the highest end.
I can’t wait for this to be released all the fan boys to spend a fortune on it and make apple even more billions in profit for a product that isn’t going to be worth it.
But at least it will help with vr and ar. I really think this could be the last bit of momentum needed to get it moving and I’m excited for that future.
Given Apple’s track record i wouldn’t bet against it succeeding, but… I don’t get it. My oculus that cost 350 does 95% of what the apple device does but costs literally 10 times more.
Its absolutely a ridiculous price tag, but its naive to say oculus is 95% the same
You wanna say 90% the same? Fine, it’s 90% the same for 90% less money.
It’s really not. Apple are going for productivity. Try reading text all day on your Oculus and see how that goes.
Apple Vision Pro will be available starting at $3,499 (U.S.) with 256GB of storage. Pre-orders for Apple Vision Pro will begin on Friday, January 19, at 5 a.m. PST, with availability beginning Friday, February 2.
So 256GB for all those movies and games you’ll want to play on that long plane ride they keep showing as a way you’ll definitely use these.
I’m in the Apple ecosystem pretty hard, but we’ll really just have to see what rich folks do with this thing.
How many movies do you actually need to store on the device itself? Apple has been all in on streaming stuff so you’d only ever need to actually download stuff when you’re planning on going offline.
That said for it’s price that’s hilariously small storage, but simultaneously peak Apple.
How much bandwidth do planes have?
In my experience, it’s a negative number.
