It’s like Apple are speedrunning the VR industry experience.
Buying to return it after getting a good feel of the latest tech is a nice move if you have the money.
Probably awful for the planet in most situations though. It’s unsure what they’ll do with the products, especially when they’re not available refurbished
Apple fans are starting to return their Vision Pros
Why can’t they sell them refurbished?
They can, Apple just doesn’t
Apple sells refurbs. The headset hasn’t even been out two weeks yet. Give it time.
It’s a sham more than a real program. They only refurbish current and last generation devices while recycling older ones. It’s anti-Apple brand to sell older gen stuff.
Hell, it can be a nice move if you have the credit limit.
If they halve the price and weight and I’d be very interested in one. The processing power should have been in the battery pack, and the outward facing screen seems absolutely worthless.
They had the tech to make it a great product but fell on their face with gimmicks and poor software support to actually make it succeed.
I don’t think the processing needed to be in the battery pack, the weight savings would have been minimal compared to removing the second screen and it would have added more thermal management concerns.
They really needed halo apps to make it worth keeping, at least native Netflix.
But without that extra screen, you wouldn’t get those creepy digital eyes that apparently don’t work very well if you have dark skin!
Are you saying the luxury product company with the white aesthetic isn’t designing or testing their products knowing that some of their customers might have dark skin? No way.
Next year when they release the not pro model for $1000 that’s essentially an iPhone in one of those cardboard VR headsets, people are going to be all over it…
I don’t think the weight itself is really the issue - the Vision Pro is significantly lighter than the Valve Index, but significantly less comfortable from the accounts I’ve heard. I bet it’s more the weight distribution and horrible strap design that’s making it so uncomfortable. I’d also add that the walled garden kills just about every use case I’d have for it.
All Apple did was make me interested in the Quest 3
Ew Facebook
I agree. I don’t have any qualifiers for that comment. It’s an issue.
Why is all the hardware in the front though? Can’t they make something that you hang over your shoulders with a cable running to the now much lighter headset?
