Surgeons are already trialing using them with surgery. Additionally I’d use it for video consumption, but not at that price. A portable movie theater sounds cool.
Just because me or you don’t have a personal use for something doesn’t mean they have “no use case”.
You could do the virtual theater thing with your phone and Google Daydream like 8 years ago. It sucked then, and it's no different now. Gimmicky tech is all it is. Unless they drop a true game changing VR game or something, it's gonna join the club with meta quest and the rest of VR / AR devices. People will use it a handful of times thinking eh that's kinda cool, then put it in a drawer to let it collect dust. I'll happily eat my words if im wrong in 5 years, but I sincerely doubt these will take off. Apple is not going to drop price. Look at iPhone, they only ever went up in price.
Google cardboard or daydream doesn’t have anywhere near the pixel density of the AVP which directly impacts the video viewing experience
It doesn't change the fact that it's a dumb idea. I get that this is the AAPL fanboi zone but ffs this thing dropped to 0 fanfare. It's a dud.
Ok, I see where you are coming from. I agree that it is a niche product category and I don’t understand what Meta and Apple see in AR & VR and am real confused why Apple of all companies decided to enter it like this. They usually avoid niche products. I enjoy VR occasionally and think it is great, but not enough to put hundreds of millions into it.
From what I see Valve is probably the only one taking a proper approach. They have a platform and hardware for it and support it, but aren’t really going from the mountain tops yelling this is the greatest next thing. To be fair they have been supporting it since , what 2015ish.
