I don't think low specs work with VR/AR market. IMHO technology is still not good enough and still developing.

the oculus quest 2 runs android and costs ~$500. Apples native code and ability to code for a a single platform would enable them to get the same experience at reduced specs.

I’d wager the current iPhones chip is more than capable to exceed an oculus quest type experience.

The iPhone SOC has been capable of running a Quest like product for a few years now.
PSVR works really well considering the very low spec (when compared to competitors). I think there's a lot more wiggle room than you'd think, depending on the application.
You don’t think. How many units did quest and quest 2 sell?
Spec is what Apple shines. They have seriously great mobile SoC.
Were talking about initial entry into a market. Apple always enters with middling specs.
