Apple's $AAPL initial inventory for the Vision Pro launch weekend was ~80,000 units Apple completely sold that out in the first hour of preorders Apple expects to sell an estimated 300K-400K Vision Pros in 2024 - Bloomberg Zuck was right with his vision and meta is rightly placed to ride this wave?
As the misery in the world increases, people will increasingly turn to the utopia of a metaverse and continue to spend time there. Why stay in real world with shitty people and costly stuff when you can consume fentanyl and disconnect from reality and spend all time in metaverse. And that will be the reality in a decade or so. Throw in a wheat shortage and job cuts for a lot of American and increasingly depressing political climate and people will be demanding more of these metaverses to plug out from reality.
Hype will die down quick. Those initial orders are just from Apple fanboys
all the laid off tech workers becoming youtube "tech" influencers had to buy it
I hope vr porn is realistic on these Zuckulous quest is fine with weed but not otherwise Can’t test it in Apple Store can’t put my months salary without knowing for sure
It’s browser based, so it should work
Quest 3 + DeoVR + passthrough is pretty good.
That's a very small set of initial units
I’m curious to see what headaches these ppl have who bought those units.
The current device has a major disadvantage due to its weight. It’s gonna be very difficult to keep the user glued to the device for a meaningful amount of time.
Let us wait until return window passes for those devices
Selling out their intentionally small first batch means nothing. The volume is small. Cost is going to continue to be a factor in VR sales. Quest 2 has been outselling the Quest 3 on the order of 3:1.

Dude preorders don't mean shit. Look what happened to the cybertruck.
Preorder of both are very different. One is a 80-100k$ truck and another is 3k$ device. People didn’t even know the actual spec, price of Cybertruck during the preorder. People just booked it since fees was refundable and kept the decision to buy it for later.
Sure but Apple is also not run my sir daddy Elon musk melon
