From the hefty $3,500 price tag, to returns due to headaches or poor fit, and a general lack of convenience, TechCrunch’s Alex Wilhelm explores why the device doesn’t fit our needs today, and what would need to change for consumers to get on board.

    The Vision Pro would be a must buy if I was building the VR future, but I’m not, so …?

    Are the rumors true? Steve Jobs used to fart in Tim Cook’s office.

    I dont think apple is tryna build a vr headset. I think they are tryna build a spatial computer. Huge difference.

    No! For the sake of having fun I’d buy an Oculus… Oh yeah I did and it collects dust. The mass consumer market is not ready to adopt a face computer. At least not yet.

    Still like mine. I use it for mostly watching movies with those Apple ear pieces. Hope it gets more apps but I’m not worried.

    Shelfware. Too awkward to use for productivity, mess up makeup and hair, limited battery life, heavy goggles strapped to face… geez, I wonder why it’s a flop. These are better for entertainment but no controllers. Go buy a quest 3 and call it a day.

    Built to be a spatial iphone, not a VR. I have a Vive, Valve Index and an original Oculus Quest. Hell, I even have a virtual boy. The Vision Pro is limited, but it’s in its 2007 1st Gen Iphone stage, it needs time. Let’s hope that apple will continue to push it.

Can a handful of engineers really do the work of an army of consultants? That’s the bet behind Ode with Anthropic — the joint venture dedicated to embedding forward-deployed engineers in enterprise firms, backed by Anthropic, Blackstone, Hellman & Friedman, Goldman Sachs and others.

On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, Rebecca Bellan sits down with Ode’s leaders Chris Taylor and Eddie Siegel, who founded Fractional AI, the applied AI services startup that Ode acquired earlier this year to serve as the new venture’s core. The three discuss why so many enterprise AI pilots never make it to production and why they think AI-native services are about to become one of the biggest categories in tech.
