It's a gimmick product for $4000 released during cost of living crisis. There is no universe in which this makes sense. I know that Apple is pushing hard for the whole "spatial computing" or whatever thing, but this is not how people want to use VR. The only thing Vision Pro excels at is showing you how it feels to be buying a computer if you live in a poor country and you're the first person in the village to spend two entire salaries on a device that has no clear practical use cases besides entertainment but your kid spent six months telling you otherwise. That porn though, totally worth it.
Also, importantly it’s had a very limited release. US only till this last week. Supposedly only 450k units available this year in total, which in the grand scheme is a very low distribution likelihood among a given demographic.
Truly, just too many other things I would rather spend $4000 on than a first generation Apple product. Hopefully the next revision can start at $2000, more palatable.
Something like the Quest link cable and SteamVR support would also be tremendous, but I'm not holding my breath on that.
Everything being more legible on the AVP would make it even better. However, it’s also controlling some Windows things that I don’t think would be permitted on macOS.
I don’t have one to be able to test Steam Link or anything similar.
The market much be quite small, even within the HN audience.
