It's 10x the cost of an entry Oculus device. And no one wants that either.

Meta Quest's are basically video game devices. It's a much different market than AVP.

Meta is selling hundreds of thousands of units a month, so I don't know if I'd say no one wants it either. It seems to be selling pretty well overall, but Meta way overinvested in some of the stuff and is having a hard time making enough money.

They're both primarily for media consumption.

Just because one device is from Apple doesn't make media consumption any more virtuous or productive.

The Quest 2 has sold 5-10x as many units as the first iphone did. Apples to oranges, but that's not no one.
