Re: Apple Vision Pro

Yeah I can see only the diehard Apple fans buying this for that price. Cool concept but it will probably take 5 years or so before the price comes down to where your average person can afford it.

Re: Apple Vision Pro

Looking forward to future iterations. They're pot committed to give us at least a couple I figure.

Hope their Epic feud doesn't hold gaming in general back on the device.

Re: Apple Vision Pro

Still trying to wrap my head around the idea of how games will be developed without controller features.

What will grab my attention is Apple announcing securing certain televised rights with MLB and the NFL (as well as Disney+) when offering that VR experiences. Imagine watching behind home plate of your virtual stadium during seasonal, playoffs, and championship games? How about being able to stand above the whole field and watch a football game like when we remember playing electric football? And because it's portal, you break out your lawn chair outside, attach it to your iphone or ipad, and soak in all that cold air. Now that's immersion.

Yeah, at that price range, it is years away from a mainstream thing

That's the realm of the Quest devices, including one that shares a lot of features as those one and could benefit from its existence.

Re: Apple Vision Pro

I'm still committed in a Quest3 which will be in April but wondering if anyone is jumping-in with pre-orders starting January 19th?

Apple usually don't discount prices on their devices so it'll be interesting to see how long that price remains. Also, if you do pre-order make sure you have your eye-glass prescription with you as the lens are personally customized. Seeing them play NBA 2K in VRAR looked interesting

Re: Apple Vision Pro

I'd be disappointed if I was investing in this with all of the apps that are opting out of producing a native app for it. Netflix, Spotify, and Youtube all opting against creating dedicated experiences (you'll need to use a browser) and others are expected to follow suit and you'll have to use a web browser to access.
