Meta has been at it since 2014 when they acquired Oculus, and has been fully into it for years since they changed their company name to it, only for a consensus among the biggest tech reviewers that all Quest products are toys and the Vision Pro is the first product where you can actually experience a glimpse of what the future will be like. Vision Pro is still an early product and it’s relatively expensive, but Apple is great at setting the minimum bar of what’s “good” enough. Today, the Vision Pro is that bar, and IMO, I don’t think technology will catch up where Apple will have a sub $1,000 headset for a long time (5+ years). Whereas meta was trying to push a headset for just a few hundred for years. As Jobs said of Microsoft, they just don’t have taste. This also applies to Meta. Just a small comparison of the two. And this is just Apple’s first iteration. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT83mL9q1/
Yeah no. Vision Pros just hype.
Ya’ll just wait until the Amazon Fire VR rolls out. We’re going to sell dozens of them!!!
At a loss or you will make a profit this time?
The world has got real problems to solve rather than care about the vision pro, so stop with this publicity campaign for Apple, no one cares and people are smarter now.
You’re right, the world has bigger problems. So why are you scrolling through blind?
you know what i always noticed? there's always negative nancies and naysayers in every blind post always someone who wants to reject the idea in the OP without valid reasons
Wow such insight
Very high rate of negative comments in Blind. YouTube comments look like posted by genius and insightful people by comparison. The worst of all communities I have seen. Blind appeals strongly to negative folks.
Apple Fanboys.
Apple is a 3T company. It’s hard to dispute their objective success. If you don’t get it, you don’t get it.
Hehehe Reddit is salty…
lol logical people know Apple never invents anything and wouldn’t be where they are without taking work from others
Invention is overrated . Look at HoloLens how much money did Microsoft set on fire before shelving it. Execution is all that matters
Our biggest customers were (are actually, it’s not completely dead) military and other businesses, not consumer end users like oculus and Apple
Stop sucking on to Tim. Microsoft is the reason the whole world can afford computers. Macs are just tiny bit better for atleast double the price. Not a worth deal at all.
Ford is why you have cars, but I’d rather enjoy driving Porche
That’s a stupid comparison and not just on the internet.
Vision Pro is awesome when you start using it. But after couple of hours you realize it’s heavy gives you headaches and doesn’t give any value. It’s just an expensive toy, no real use case.
Ill bite. Vision pro is nothing spectacular. Spatial awareness / computing (whatever you call it) is solid, but other than that, its nothing special. Heavy, uncomfortable, low battery life, slow eye tracking, narrow vision, etc etc. Its got loads of problems from a consumers perspective. After the initial "wow" factor wears off, its just a clunky device that will perform the same things an Ipad / macbook can do, but worse. Yes, surely they will improve on a lot of these things. However, at this current time and price point, it is an awful product. Releasing something like this and calling it next generation is actually quite disappointing. If being a beta tester of a bad product is a good "minimum bar", then idk what to say.
Same can be said about the first iPhone. No App Store, no 3rd party apps, no wallpaper, just a permanent black background. It was chunky with a small screen. It was laggy and it didn’t have a physical keyboard, and it was $600!! It cost multiples more than the computation. Nitpicking what’s wrong with a product is not really valid criticism.. because it’ll never be perfect. Only time will tell, we’ll see.
Then what is a valid criticism to you?
Agreed!

Nah, it’s unusable after initial wow factor. Far too heavy. Apple decided to go with glass and metal for the looks despite it killing the function
