Apple finally dropped the rumoured headset it's been working on at yesterday's WWDC. It's called the Vision Pro and it will sell for just about $3500.
I thought it looked super impressive at the event, but it seems like the ship has kind of sailed in the whole virtual / augmented headset especially if you're entering at that price point, I'm probably wrong though.

I love it so much!
I like to remember what we thought about the iPhone when it first released: too expensive. And now look at our world.
We've witnessed AI and Apple Glasses in the same year ! I'll surely remember this one.
I think it's a game-changer! But I would like to test it, because with other helmets (oculus or PS VR) I got nauseous after some time, if Apple fixes this issue, I think I need to start saving from now... Also, I'm curious about battery life...
I have 2 ways how I can imagen using it. 1st is to extend my Macbook Pro and work on 2-3 monitor mods and the 2nd is to watch movies. Both cases when I'm not at home. But right now I couldn't imagine myself wearing a VR headset in the coffee shop.
Great question. I imagine it will take a long time for these to become normalized into society beyond gaming. Also, I just read this about Apple's new proprietary R1 chip and how it is intended to reduce motion sickness.

I don't understand how it would help.
After watching WWDC23, going back to work on my computer I was like: "damn, a laptop with a 2D screen looks boring now" ahah.
It's a game changer. Apple is making laptop / desktop obsolete basically, moving the digital from 2D to 3D aka 'spatial'. Most people compare it with Oculus, or any other VR headset. Apple provides both the device, and create a whole new environment for it - what other players can't do, having either the hardware (Quest) or the vision (Meta). It's not comparable to iPad, iWatch, or anything - it's a brand new line of product that might even replace laptops.
Of course it's not gonna happen in a year time, like the iPhone was not as popular as of now when it has first been launched. But I deeply believed they just created something transformative, looking forward to see where it brings us 👀
😮 It's like stepping into a whole new dimension of technology and immersing yourself in a mind-bending experience. But let's be real, price-wise, it's definitely on the expensive side. And not everyone might be ready to dive into this VR reality just yet. Let's see how it unfolds!
@aaronoleary I think that starting a discussion is a much better place to celebrate apples headset reveal over launching a brand new product. Overall I don’t know who they are targeting at such a price point, maybe researchers and universities.
