This proves that there are at least 400k die-hard-price-insensitive Apple enthusiasts who are willing to spend that much for Apple’s latest gadgets. If I was Apple’s executive, I would double down on more high-priced novel products, even niche ones, that integrate in various ways to the Apple ecosystem.

400k is a pretty small number. Apple spent years on VisionPro with a large team.

This means so they are likely in the red (unprofitable) on VisionPro.

This ignores the opportunity cost of the VisionPro team working on something else.

Apple could have made normal fashionable glasses with a screen aka The Apple Watch / Apple AirPods strategy - but for eyes.

But they went the heavy ski mask strategy with 2 hour battery life.
