What I think is delusional are those who don’t believe Apple got anything out of Vision Pro and have reached into the inner most sanctum of Apple and devined the product to be a flop.
Out of curiosity what are those other very few products?
My HomePod og is still going strong and getting updates. A flop also? Or a first cut at technology and a form factor that lead to something else?
Well Ford has been around a hundred or so years so there is that.
Its active user base and financials say otherwise.
And all the products that sell with msrp above the Vision Pro? They are for rich people also?
But it must be said there's gro versions one with just apple models and one with Gemini built in so guessing it's the apple one which has concerns
Apparently 400,000 AVPs sold while yielding an extra $1.4 Billion in revenue for Apple qualifies.
Agreed. If people say AVP is a flop not sure what to say to that person.
It's a great product just badly priced and it's only been put on the back burner to get the glasses out which will use vision OS btw.
Would say millions don't care about Siri and that shows in phone sales
Most likely, random employees are “concerned” because they haven’t been privy to seeing it yet.
Sued by Apple? He's a paid controlled leaker, writes exactly what's he's been told to tell.
Let's face it. VP shouldn't have been released. It was too early. The hardware was too heavy, and with the battery dongle, it looked like a development kit. There were no use cases for real professional work, and no use cases/content for regular use. It was a glorified streaming device with creepy eyes on the front, and Apple marketed it as an everyday device. Anyone who watched the keynote with the people using it in everyday life should have immediately guessed it would be a flop.

Even back then Siri was a problem. Also I remember how nobody in management wore VP at events because they didn’t believe in that product.
User bases can shrink. Perfect example is Blackberry and Nokia. Both of these companies once had enormous user bases. Now they're in the dustbins of history. Apple should never take its large user base for granted or a guarantee of anything.
Sure and Ford and Gm could also go out of business and the earth could get hit with a huge meteor.
Just asking is this a gotcha question
True but people have been saying apple is doomed for 10 years and it's been wrong every year
The only legitimately good lessons to be learned from Apple are the ones that came from its former (and deceased) visionary founder. Those after him are just Wall Street mouthpieces.
I never said Apple didn’t get anything out the Vision Pro. It got plenty of ridicule for example, and also a lot of distraction for the technology trends that actually matter (generative AI above all).
