No way Apple announces a $3,000 headset and expect the average Joe to buy it when they see a $300 one.
I probably would forget about it already in 24 hoursbump my post in a couple of years.
You're not wrong, but Facebook as a company/brand will always reek w/ foul stench as long as their wallets continue to be lined by advertising money alone.Meta/Facebook are VERY happy that Apple is entering the market… It will make their stock prices jump back up, and they will have much easier time going forward.
Hmmm .. here are five reasons:why the meta hate?
No hope? Please tell me there’s still a reason to hope for something better. 🙏🏽The only things you can count on now are death, taxes, and inflation. The rest is chaos.
If Apple charges $3000 for their VR Headset is because it’s worth it.You might want to check:
I was at checkout at Walmart a few hours ago and there were wireless buds that looked just like Apples, with packaging promises hitting the highpoints of Apples... priced at $19.99.

- cheap PC prices and then edit the post.
- Amazon cheap tablet prices and then edit the post.
- cheap smart watch alternatives and then edit the post.
- Etc.
If average Joes are not paying up for Apple stuff, us fans must have personal warehouses stuffed to the brim with it all. STUFFED!![]()
This reeks of rushing the announcement. Also that they put this out today but who knows if they will try to cram in new features by September based on what Apple announces.

When the iPad came out back in 2010 it seemed like a madness to spend almost $800 on a tablet that had no physical keyboard and no ports.
Mine paid off by itself in about a week.
Thanks to it I was able to do work I would not have been able to do at that time, because I was not carrying my laptop, only my iPad.
It looks a solid device, if the full colour pass-through is rapid and vibrant that's a huge step compared to a lot of headsets. Solid price too. Just a shame its MetaNot the first time we have seen desperation in advance to an Apple major product announcement.
you win the internet today, sirVR Wars Episode V: Zuck Strikes Back
It is a dark time for Apple. Although the M2 has been released, Meta troops have driven the Apple headset from it's hidden development and pursued it across the meta verse.
Evading the dreaded Meta Zuckfleet, a group of freedom fighters led by Tim Applebiter has established a new secret VR Pro on the remote ice state of Alaska.
The evil lord Darth Zucker, obsessed with finding old Applebiter, has dispatched thousands of remote Metamates into the far reaches of the Metaverse….
I think they might sell dev kits to studios for $3000 this week, and in the fall, when this is ready for sale it might have a $999 or $1299 price tag for retail.Apple has a Trojan horse, I think this headset is gonna be significantly cheaper than 3000 dollars.
I didn't "equate" it, it's a simple matter of association of "bigger->heavier", which humans have done, since forever. The actual weight is still unknown.since when size equates weight?
They mentioned "more comfortable" which to me sounds like a lighter headset is more comfortable. They're saving the specs for the official announcement obviously.Obviously if the headset would weigh a lot less that would be an improvement. I’m not saying it won’t. It might. But if it was a substantial difference wouldn’t they mention that?
I didn't say you couldn't. I'm just curious as to why even laugh at the slimmer design. I don't see anything saying they'll weigh the same. Let's assume the weights are the same. The slimmer design means the weight of the headset is closer to your face, which means better weight distribution. How is that even funny?early reports suggesting the weight will be about the same as Quest 2...
I guess I can keep laughing then?
Oh. Facebook, like Google, is an ad Company. Android, gmail, chrome is no better. Google have stolen your privacy and share it with the government and other companiesHmmm .. here are five reasons:
Of course you may not have heard of these if you get your news from Facebook.
- Promoting misinformation and amplifying hate,
- Tracking people who don’t use their services,
- Holding the Facebook pages of Australian hospitals, charities, and emergency services hostage as leverage amid discussions with the country’s government regarding reform proposals,
- Leveraging sensitive user data to aim ads at teenagers who say they feel “anxious” and “worthless.”,
- Cambridge Analytica.

I agree 100%. That’s why I don’t use Google, Android, gmail, chrome, any Facebook products, and any social media (exception was Twitter, but switched to mastodon after the recent change of ownership).Oh.

Quest 2 works fine with glasses. There's a company I found that will actually grind you replacement lenses for the Quest 2 to your prescription. Then you can simply swap the lenses and not even need to wear your glasses.How do those headsets play with people who wear glasses ? Myopia etc
Check out the game Demeo next time you have the Quest 2 on...I plop my Quest 2 on every few months to do some chill fishing from my couch, but the novelty of VR wore off pretty quickly after purchasing it. I'll have to remember that once I'm hyped after the Apple Event. The 3K price tag will help assuage my FOMO as well.
What's funny is that their marketing claim is an illusion and not reality: the super thick "facial interface" in a near fully-dark color and the "slim" front portion in near fully-light color is an age-old visual trick to make areas of a composition appear smaller or farther away by reducing brightness.I didn't say you couldn't.

HilariousHaha 40% thinner excluding the facial interfaces. Sure but now the "facial interfaces" are much thicker to make up for it. What a joke, just to able to hit that number. In reality the headset is barely thinner than the Quest 2.
