Apple’s cheaper Vision Pro follow-up still won’t be cheap::A new report says Apple’s next mixed-reality headset will likely ditch the external EyeSight screen to reach a cheaper price point, along with other hardware compromises.

Even Apple’s damn screen polishing cloth is not cheap - why would anyone hope for Apple branded ANYTHING to ever be cheap?
It may still be much more expensive than the competition, but will probably be half what the vision pro costs now.
When Apple launches a new product line there are typically no real competitors. When the competition catches up, their prices suddenly line up with what Apple charges.
“Apple Cheaper Vision” You almost had me on the first words.
In other news, the surface of the sun is hot.
Apple doesn’t do ‘cheap’. They charge A THOUSAND FUCKING DOLLARS for a damned monitor stand after selling you a $4-5000 dollar monitor that doesn’t come with a stand!
If you are expecting to do anything in the Apple ecosystem ‘cheap’ you’re going to be in for a bad time.
The m2 MacBook airs are spectacular machines for the price.
what is going tobe the objective of that vr-headset?, designing?
It’s meant to be a full workstation replacement. No longer need larger office spaces with multiple monitors because it can be simulated inside the headset, so imagine getting crammed under a stairwell and still having a big open space inside the headset to work. Dystopian universe here we come
Can you imagine your on your corporate network and now they not only know everything you do on your computer but also literally everything you look at? “Bill uses passthrough to look at his phone on average 18 times a day. Let’s set up a meeting and restrict his passthrough privileges. He will live in our virtual corporate prison until further notice.” The future is fun!
Thanks I hate it
Apple : What does cheap mean?
That’s fine, they could give it away for free and I still wouldn’t want it.
Why?
Because I’m not in the Apple ecosystem and I’m not about to start now.
I sort of am, but I don’t see the point of the Vision Pro, or any such AR headsets honestly. Like VR to me is a gimmick, AR is a step under that.
That’s because it’s still an early’s adopters tech. There is absolutely a ton of potential in this space.
VR is absolutely incredible to me. That said, I have an Index that’s been played ten times in the last two years. It’s just a lot of effort to set up when I wanna play, and my ass is lazy.
