Why do you need another event? They have already had one and showed you everything
There are? That's news to me as every Macbook Pro starts at 512gb
Apple started with M2 chip because they probably have a few warehouses full of them, and secondly, it gives them an easy route to the Vision Pro 2 w/M3 chip in 2026.
Laptops create. Laptop are tools people use to write apps and design and create product to make money. I suppose someone could use VP as part of their product to make money, but I also see people using these to play games and watch movies.
You’re assuming nothing will be created using this device? Look I’m just as skeptical as you. But I am not as dismissive as others here it seems.
If I were a betting man, I'd bet that the majority of these VP headsets would not be used to generate income for the owner. I bet the majority will be used to play games, watch videos and whatever other fun things app developers come up with (that Apple will allow).
There's probably an empty NAND chip pad right on the circuit bord waiting for another 256GB chip to be added.
People that say this usually can’t afford it actually. But that’s ok.
Everything? A lot of work has been dine since. We have no idea what developers have created and we still don’t know all the details on the device.
We know more than enough of what it can do. What would an event really show you that the other didn’t? 1 million apps will be available at launch. What they showed off will work in feb.
Apple learned that by setting base storage at 256GB, they can more often than not get buyers to spend $200 more to upgrade the storage to 512GB thereby padding Apple's bottom line.
Call me crazy but I'd expect to see more details and more use-cases for a product that costs $3500. The initial announcement was half-baked with only one pseudo demo (Disney).
Yup, this is just as bad as them still insiting that 8GB for a desktop or notebook is enough for most people as a baseline
With how resource hungry some apps have become, I'd beg to differ
After reading about this gadget, I'm curious how the sound works? It says the speakers are next to the ears, not in the ears, so do they use something like bone conduction technology for the audio? If so, fidelity isn't that great. But it must be so that the person sitting next to you can't hear your VP.
Well, it is a "Pro" product after all
Suffice to say, I think whenever they do unveil a non-pro version of this, the price will be hopefully cut in half at least
As I read the release, they are including both versions of the band. The one you've been seeing, and this dual loop band.
- Apple Vision Pro comes with a Solo Knit Band and Dual Loop Band — giving users two options for the fit that works best for them. Apple Vision Pro also includes a Light Seal, two Light Seal Cushions, an Apple Vision Pro Cover for the front of the device, Polishing Cloth, Battery, USB-C Charge Cable, and USB-C Power Adapter.
