Apple level software, Lidar + M2 chips. It’s going to be a powerhouse like nothing seen before. Like all things, I think Apple is going to release something that will define the VR space.

I’m pumped for this. I actually bought a Quest Pro, but it simply isn’t 3 times better (or even twice as good) than a Quest 2 so couldn’t justify keeping it. I’m super Apple is going to Apple the crap out of this and I’m here for it.

I hope Apple makes their VR headset able to work natively with third party VR hardware like omnidirectional treadmills (yes, I own one) and haptic feedback vests and such.

what’s really impressive is that we only had one apple event this fall with new products. Normally we have 3 events when they release the new MacBooks and more Christmas gifts ideas. Apple is smart and they are trying to stay low key this holidays season with almost no new products. This can mean that there is definitely something new coming out in January and I am so excited to see what they have build for us. I am for sure we will see this in a couple of weeks just as a peak of the product and then they will announce and say coming this summer of 2023.

Whatever the apps, it needs to have a better field of view than Oculus and most others. The scuba-mask effect (blocked peripheral vision) negates the immersive effect for me. I just can’t get used to it. So I’ll stick with Real Reality for now. But… on a crappy grey New England day, put me on a tropic beach and I’m in.

I guess I’m the only person on the planet who doesn’t gaf about AR or VR. Sure I can see niche use cases in *SOME* industries, but does the AVERAGE office worker REALLY need to see their colleagues rendered in 3D space as cartoon avatars simply to discuss next qtr’s planning report? What is the quantifiable $/hr productivity increase or cost savings benefit for Microsoft purchasing 150,000 headsets @$3k each for every employee? Right now, companies equip employees with computers, tablets, & mobile phones b/c it’s simply a job requirement or it dramatically improves productivity (like iPads & phones in the field). But besides certain consumer focused design industries where sub-millimeter tolerances aren’t important, I don’t see the value of AR/VR for the average cubicle worker.

Apple has gods in marketing working for the company, they are the GOAT when it comes to convincing people to buy overpriced gadgets and sometimes not even gadgets that we need, but they make you want it, crave it and their products do what’s advertised and that’s why I love Apple, they take innovation from other companies and make it 10 times better, you’ll say what you will about Apple but there’s no doubt they are the best at marketing period!!.

I can’t justify an AR/VR headset until I am able to use it in my near everyday life like a Google Glass on steroids. As this is a new product category for Apple I do expect an extremely heavy price tag on the first couple generations like as the Apple Watch was. I’m very excited to see this headset and see where it goes and hopefully see it for myself one day. Apple is excellent at bringing products to the masses and mainstream this is a very exciting time in this product category as Meta and all other headsets have failed to catch my eye and most others I’d assume. Just gonna have to sit this product out for a while until I can afford such a device especially if the price is going to be in the thousands.

Hi Bridget, I am someone who been using vr products for over 4 years (Cardboard, GearVR, WMR, Quest 2). The biggest draw for me has been the ability to do everything I can do with a desktop in the VR environment of my choosing: whether using VR overlay software in a PCVR app that allows mods (and therefore customization of the environment); or an app that natively supports streaming one’s MacOS or windows screen to one or more adjustable (position, orientation, size, curvature) virtual ones. The sense of ambience, if combined with comfort, ease-of-use, security and privacy that Apple seems to be known for, can (in my opinion) lead to greater productivity than using a desktop alone. In other words, studying pharmacotherapy while riding in a horse-drawn carriage, surrounded by mountains in Skyrim, within a tropical cove in Guided Meditation VR, in a spaceship with a view of Earth in Elite Dangerous, or within a Chicago apartment in Virtual Desktop while in reality lying in bed, alone, in a student house is really cozy! When living far from friends and family, VR can help one feel considerably less home-sick!
SC Tsou

Two more things: if Apple can create a multi-camera system so FaceTime becomes more like Star Wars holograms, or the ability to do 3d photogrammetry easily with your phone (allowing you to simulate a work, test, or home environment within their headset), I think they’d have a product I feel would be worth more than thousands of dollars to me. You can feel a person far away is close by, you can go back in time to the home you’ve moved away from, or you can desensitize and prepare yourself for a novel, stressful, test situation.

I loved the idea of VR and AR, having an oculas riftS myself and seeing where the company has led to is disapointing. The Meta pro is unaffordable and the plans for it seem foggy. I’ve not been the biggest fan of apple having seen their phones and laptops remain more or less the same slab for years and it felt like they were drifing from innovation. Having never made a VR/AR before, this will be exciting to see and the direction they take, will they make wearing AR goggles in public the norm?…

If you purchase ANYTHING from Apple, then you are supporting Chinese slavery of the Uighurs and Tibetans; you are supporting human organ harvesting for sale on the black market; you are supporting the repeated rape of Uighur girls and women held in Xinjiang concentration camps. And Apple condones this reprehensible and uncivilized behavior by a group of Chinese neanderthals. You should be ashamed of yourselves and keep in mind that karma has a long memory.

I agree with Scott, you figure ar would be the more natural territory for apple
Like using it to get around Madrid, to find an underground station in London, to find a bodega in Queens or a h&m at in San Francisco…
also to demo different styles, clothes or gear before you commit to buy it on Amazon,
so, to get you to a vendor when you need something, and to connect to vendors when you were too lazy to go,
you also get subtle ar ads, you wake up and the pair of Converse sneakers you’ve been eyeing appear already in your closet, the tickets for that concert you’ve been anxious are sitting on your desk when you get home, things of the sort,
So for cases where you don’t overpower reality, but just keenly supplement it,
As well as for notifications, to use your voice to reply to a message, or swipe to join a zoom call while you’re out for a jog,
Style wise, something between some Bose headphones and aviator glasses?
And how about a auto-tinting layer to get you that full immersion experience at home or for reading an important email while on a train to work?
