Report: Work on Multiple Next-Gen Vision Pro Headsets Ongoing, Including Cheaper Model

[Born Again]

Like the lucrative popular tablet market before the iPad? Or the lucrative smart watch market? Come on give me a break. The same people who were wrong then are the same people who are wrong now, they never learn. I would argue the VR market is much more popular today than the tablet market was before the iPad. But that’s not even the point, the Vision Pro isn‘t really geared towards the VR market anyway, although I’m sure that’s where it’ll get majority of its use cases for its first couple of years. The AR market is the long term goal, the idea of “headphones for the eyes”. But still my point is this thing will sell out, the shipping dates will slip to weeks, then to months, and soon be damn near impossible to find and then Apple will release the next generation. All while people here in the comment section are wrongly predicting it to bomb, it’s ridiculous.

And you were wrong.

The avp didn’t sell well and its speculative if there will be a v2 any time soon.

Dude you lost.

Would anyone be surprised if Apple abandoned Vision Pro in 5 years? I’m serious.

We wouldn’t. They walked away from bigger investments like the Apple car.

They may go all in with AI.

The dude ‘lost’ - what this is a competition who wins? AI goes hand in hand with AR but you knew that….. because you are a winner.

It’s about principle. He compared the naysayers to the iPhone 1 naysayers.

Avp is no iPhone one.

Avp is more like ping.

Maybe maybe not. I still believe in 10 years time your phone won’t exist but AR and AI certainly will.

“AI goes hand in hand with AR.”

Care to explain that comment?

Because ten years from now wearing a bulky plastic device on your face is going to be desirable for the majority of people??

No. Not going to happen. This will continue to be a big “no” for the VAST majority of people. Apple’s hype about Vision being “the future of computing” is pure empty marketing.

Continued speculation is pointless... it is far too early to know whether or not Apple's AR / VR / "Spatial computing" efforts will be a success or failure.

Seriously y'all just need to drop it and get on with other matters...

 

[Surf Monkey]

It’s MUCH closer to success than it is to failure. Selling out, regardless of how many are made, is a success. People are acting like this thing is just gonna be sitting on the shelves, impossible to sell, and that is far from what will actually happen.

Well, the “sell out” was indeed a mirage. Demand for the device has already peaked and there’s virtually no wait time to get one. They are on shelves in Apple stores and not scarce at all.

I’m not dropping it.

I’m going to remind you every month “how is the Avp doing?”

“Are you using the avp still?”

“Any killer apps yet?”

lol how wrong you were. How is your avp doing? All tucked into your desk drawer? Or you ready to put it on eBay?

how are they wrong? What is your argument against a fledgling technology developing into something massive? Why have you given it no chance at all to succeed, but instead think it is best to join the luddites and their blinkered opinions.

First of all welcome back. We missed you.

Second of all we love new tech but a $3500 piece of tech that has no killer app was doomed to fail. Apple doesn’t make products simply to see it develop into another product. There will be no avp 2. They’re already looking at mimicking what meta is doing with their ray bans.

Btw this was nothing like the iPhone. I will accept your apology.
