The guy who said 'can't innovate any more, my ass' with the macPro trashcan? Please ...

The MP was innovative, they just bet on a different type of processing power rising to the top, and on that instance, bet wrong. That happens when you take chances. What have you done that’s worth bragging about? Surely you too have decades of successes for every miss, yes?

Isn't that a silly qualification needed for anyone to express their opinions about anything in their life?

Good thing I don’t know anybody who gives a shirt about that, let alone any normals. 

You know you can like Apple products -and- want them to be easier for DIYers to repair and upgrade.

I found the video interesting and I'm glad that these are easier to repair. 

Why so that a market in stolen parts is made? The fantasy of a little mom and pop shop fixing high end electronic devices is coming to an end, future SOC'S and devices like the Apple Vision are getting smaller due publics demand smaller and more powerful equipment.

If my iPhone, Mac Studio Ultra or XDR monitor go down Apple will be the one's to fix them.

Yet another short-sighted post on this topic. This is NOT about people who would engage Apple's repair services whenever required. Nobody is taking that option away from you. It is about people who needs to get their devices repaired outside warranty or people who do not have access to Apple stores within a reasonable distance. And @Xed's point is about extending the useful lifespan of those devices by repairing them instead of abandoning them just because Apple would not repair or the cost to repair is prohibitively expensive. The real world needs are much bigger than your narrow minds could imagine.

Not to pick nits, but the correct word is remuneration, not renumeration. 

Wow, I have been making this mistake for quite sometime. Learnt it now, thank you.

The 20+ inch folding display product makes a lot more sense to me. It’s going to be expensive, but you are making something that is not portable, say 22” monitor, into something that can be transported in a backpack or by your arm. 

A folding iPad mini? Doesn’t make sense. It’s already quite portable, and you can buy it for about $500. 

Making that a folding form factor is going to double the price at minimum and the benefit is putting it into your pants pocket? OLED is nice and all, but a $1000 folding iPad mini doesn’t sound like a winning product. 

Agreed. And it won't be $1000 foldable iPad mini. It would be $2000 foldable iPad mini in the initial year due to combination of component costs, relatively low volumes, recouping the R&D etc.

dewme said: The Netflix CEO is pretty much at the same place that many of us are at with Vision Pro - "we'll see where things go" which means we will wait and see. I'm waiting too. The big difference is we're all waiting because there is about $4K of our hard earned cash on the line and we don't really know for sure how this thing will fit into our lives other than the gee-whiz and oh-wow factor

If you know how an 100" 4K OLED TV would fit into your life then you already know how the AVP would fit. And you would be saving multiple thousands of dollars by getting the AVP instead of the TV. 

By purchasing an AVP for each of your family members. /s
