Apparently the Oculus Quest 3 is just as good and a hell of a lot cheaper.
I had the first Quest and enjoyed it initially but got bored of it after a while. Although I used to love a game of table tennis, was a mad experience the first time.
Just as good is probably a stretch, the apple product is expensive AF but it is higher resolution, 4 times brighter, doesn't need an external controller, has better processor, more cameras, has retina tracking, LIDAR scanner etc etc - the resolution and brightness will make it a lot better to look through
For what most people use it for quest will be fine though so the Vision Pro is poor value, but you're paying for early tech. The hand and eye tracking on the Vision Pro is meant to be immense, but it has to be if it's not using a controller.
True but as a mass marketing device 3,500 seems a little steep especially to take outside or use daily as they envisage etc but yes your your right VR isn’t cheap.
iPhones are already over a grand, as are iPads - MacBook Pros can stretch to £4k. Like those devices, I'd imagine if you're taking it out the house you'd be wise to insure it.
This will sell, I doubt it's going to sell millions but it'll be popular and they're already working on a v2. It'll get smaller, lighter, better battery etc over time and more applications
The video I watched of how it creates an avatar if you for FaceTime was quite impressive - room for improvement but it's better than a cartoon avatar and for a v1, pretty well done, looks better live than in a picture, but it's essentially removing the headset. I like that you can also bring up your computer screen remotely although it only works with apple computers - there are definitely some corporate use cases in mind though & they've already rolled out enterprise device management.
