Apple Vision Pro research and early work was hidden in plain sight

"From" $3499 is too expensive for what VisionPro represents at this time. Yeah, I'm impressed with it. A lot. Am I impressed enough to buy one without asking, "Will this add $3,500 (or more) of value to my work or home life?" The answer is, right now VP offers nothing that is unavailable in some other, albeit less impressive format. Yet. There are plenty of ways to spend "from" $3,500 (plus tax, lens correction and AppleCare) that would equal or surpass the benefit I'd derive from a headset.Dump the floating windows. The market for VP as a work tool is too niche. The transparency feature seems impressive at first, but you could also just take them off when you want to talk to someone in the room. Is that worth an extra whatever? And why do we need to create an artificial representation of ourselves NOT wearing the headset when using Facetime? Let your contacts see that you're wearing them, and envy you. Or take them off.
Do what's necessary to get the price to $1,999, and add an eSIM. Now there's mass market appeal. Keep the $3,499 model for the upscale customer, call it VisionPro Ultra or something so they'll have something to brag about.
You’re on record, at least a hundred times here alone, as being bearish on Vision Pro. So why do you feel required to chime in on every single article about the subject with the same recycled arguments?Who exactly are you trying to convince? Yourself or others? Because breathlessly repeating yourself over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over seems a little insecure. It only weakens your argument and isn’t really convincing for anybody on the fence.
Ok, so that was actually two questions.Some folks are so predictable!And as always, you didn’t answer the question. Either of them.And if you’re posting just to trigger someone, it sounds like maybe that person is the one living in your mind. Workshop your insults a little better next time to avoid rookie mistakes like that. -
