Honestly who cares? I’ve worn my on long haul flights. I couldn’t care less what people think while they watch movies on their ****** airplane microsceen.
But the reality is most people are interested and ask what it’s like.
Got a tip for us?

The dozens of people who bought it must be devastated.

I don't see any outrage so far but a lot of laughing as in "haha this is not a joke, right?"
Reddit users claim the Trade-In program is coming (per chats with Apple reps).
Good to see, assuming it's true.
I’m sure all 5 owners of the first gen version are furious with this news.
On the bright side, maybe you don't get to see people laughing if those big windows you put up are blocking the view.

Good one!
However, it may benefit Apple to offer some trade-in value for upgraders, even if it has little real value and cannot be resold for much. It would essentially be a loyalty discount for upgraders. Apple would not be doing this out of kindness, but because it is better to sell another vision pro to an upgrader for a reduced price, than not sell it at all.
I bet this goes on with iPhone trade-in values already, which often seem overly generous to me. It encourages people to upgrade more often.

Just for upgraders to another AVP or for anyone who owns one and just wants to trade it in and get out?
I'm wondering whether Apple will resell these refurbished ones for a very steep discount (like 50% off) to attract new customers to the platform or if they'll do their usual 10-20% discount over new.
They functionally do. By the time I put 1 TB storage in my OG AVP, got Zeiss prescription lenses, a second battery, case, and third party over-the-head strap (Belkin), I ended up forking over nearly $5K for it.
I love it, but there is no way I'll be spending the $$$ to get a faster one, even if there WERE a trade-in path. No trade-in makes assurance doubly sure. No way, Jose.

Tell us it's not worth very much without telling us.... I want Apple to keep innovating because I think Apple Vision has the potential to be something awesome, but this decision is not filling me with confidence.
