Uhm you got it all wrong. You don't need 80"+ OLED because it's gonna die on you within three years (if you are lucky). If you want state of the art TV that you might want to take a loo at 8K miniLED Z9K (it will last you a lifetime). But for the money of OLED you quoted you can get a real good 4K Sony Projector and stereoscopic 3D. Instead of MBA which you don't need you can get a proper projector screen such as Elite. And when it comes to sound nothing beats true surround setups and none of that softwate upmix bs that apple and sony do on their phone apps.
alright well, a few things
1) by all accounts, based on every screen/projector you mentioned, they are the same price if not more expensive than what I listed
2) yeah, you don’t
need an MBA to use AVP, but one of its biggest selling points is being able to mirror macOS (which imo will be far superior in an AR space than what Apple has cooked up in visionOS thus far—though I don’t doubt it will get better with time, we can all acknowledge that it is essentially an iPadOS port at this point in time)
3) when you get into a true surround sound system, that again just further raises the price that I’d previously tallied
4) Apple seems to be taking Spatial Audio pretty seriously this time around (I’ve been a naysayer on that technology since its inception)—never before have they mentioned any kind of “audio raytracing,” and that will either end up being another marketing buzzword or a game-changer for the technology itself—interested to see how the (ostensible) use of bone conduction on those speakers pans out as well, given I’ve heard it provides a generally more immersive audial experience (‼️anectodal evidence alert‼️). at the end of the day, if immersion by way of ANC matters to the end-user, they can hook it up to a pair of APP
5) [bonus] Joanna Stern came back from her demo with AVP and said it was the first time 3D movies “
are finally making sense” to her; I’m hard-pressed to think of a better way to watch 3D content than with a headset like this—Apple really drove that point home with the addition of the 3D cameras that can be used to capture photo/video (and I can’t recall who on the forum said this, but in response to the idea of wearing a headset at a kids’ birthday party being creepy, they simply recalled the all-too-familiar memory of their dad with his camcorder in front of him at events like that. still wish I knew where my father’s camcorder went.)
I suspect, when it launches world wide, not just US & Canada, at least 10 million will be sold
