A lot of money for a device which has a narrow field of view.

Well it's Apple. Overpriced garbage as always.

MetaQuest 3$499
Vision Pro $3,499

Just change the place of the "$"

Them Unity games though...lol. Get ready for a template-dev AR/VR crumble cake. Let's be honest Apple is going to be suited for experiences and companion 360 apps and Apple + content (Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn!).

I’m blown away by this.

Like, this feels like something seriously next level.

Crazy

Whoo. That's scary. Good luck though. Apple does sell phones for over a grand. So who knows. But WOW! Lol

$3,499 with a 2 hour wired battery pack? Hard pass 😅

Don't know about $3500.

What I'm pissed off about is the new MacBook air is 1299 in the US, (instantly becomes best value for all round laptop.)

Which would make it 1100 pounds in the UK, roughly translated
..
but noooooo, it's 1400 pounds. Making it not so good value anymore. God daymmnnn it.

Was all ready to buy to replace my 12 year old Sony Vaio pro 13. Now time to rethink or find a student for educational discount.

I don’t see it.

According to the device specs and how it's explained its literally a computer stuffed into a pair of glasses. That's reflective in the price. Augmented reality is the first step toward holographic technology.
Soon we will get the small cube that projects into our space allowing for the same hand gestures without the need for glasses. Just like we see in countless Sci fi movies.

Did anyone not look at the tech involved? It isnt a mass market device.... Surely you understand?
As for gaming, the rumours were right... Hideo did show!
it truly is the marathon, getting him onboard will def help apple learn a thing or two from a great gaming legend... As im sure Sony did with the decima engine...
Just saying, yep its expensive, but its slick...And the tech, like F1, will trickle down....
See it for the product it is.

ms was doing this with hololens years ago and im sure they are closer to bringing their version to the masses at a lower cost

this was supposed to launch last year and they pumped a billion into it and have no choice but to release it knowing it will never penetrate any market

I doubt that this product is aimed at Gamers but more at the Mac lover artist who only swears by Apple to do his creation.
I wish them luck because they are entering a field that many tried and failed.

Waiting outside quiet area for meeting
Checks n4g
Shitty ad music loudly plays against my will
Great job n4g
Ignore complaints and suggestions, add things nobody wants

3.499€
2 hours (!!!) of battery life. In Reality ~60 Minutes of Gaming.
You literally have to carry the battery in your backpocket.

This is years away from being mainstream, let alone gaming.

I've never seen such a bland and sterile way of advertising a new device like people are going to go out and spend 3500 USD on a device that basically just displays apps.

Djeez that prize 😳

Not even Apple die hards are buying this at that price.

VR is the future of not only in gaming, but they way we will interact in the information space.

$6000 aud, now that's ooff!

This could be a premium VR headset for gaming. But only if you can connect it to a more powerful graphics processor. Will this have ann option after it is released? Like AirPlay for VR? I hope so.

This will never be used by gamers to play games. Niche product

You know it's a apple product when it cost 3.499$ 😅

3500💀

What people who think this thing will generate amazing 3D graphics do not understand about this Apple Vision Pro thingy... is that all that 3D processing is going into the stuff you cannot see.

It takes NOTHING to pull up a webpage and displaye it in VR in a 3D space or even in AR Google did this 10 years ago PSVR2 is doing similar things now in games (though those games need the power of the PS5's beefy GPU to pull up 2D elements and place them in a fully 3D world).

The raytracing this Apple Vision Pro will do does nothing for games it will be used to align the real wold with the pre-made static or simple dynamic backdrops that were showcaeed in the reveal video.

The Apple Vision Pro should not cost over $2,000, but that Apple "perfume" apparently costs an additional $1,500+ according to Apple.

Tell me again how the multiplatform strategy was supposed to fix everything. Look at your results and compare them to Nintendo, which keeps thriving with exclusives. Your loyal fans are gone. And let’s not forget the pile of IPs you purchased only to let them rot.

The worst thing is this is down from last years numbers/expectations which was down from the previous years numbers/expectations. You think about how long “down” has been a consistent part of the communication and you realize those subscriptions are what’s holding that boat together. The price cut of gamespass is still a price raise in a string of price raises. They are trying to use players to offset the missing revenue. Now call of duty is out of gamespass, which is literally WHY they bought the company. To draw people to the subscription. They realized they missed a boatload of money and that wasn’t sustainable. Now you pay for it like you would have if they never bought the company… so why buy the company? Mind you those billions still need to be paid back. Yeah it gives you a chance to say we make the biggest FPS… but the internal conversations must be brutal at high level on topics that really matter. Like revenue. Profitability. And ROI for the shopping spree.

Is this like the 10th quarter in a row they're down 33% on hardware how is that even mathematically possible. You would think their mediocrity would Plateau
