Do you think I can afford a camera after spending $15,000 on my Vision Pros?

All of that being said. It would likely have been more wise to wait for the second generation (or at least a month or two for the shine to wear off and the bugs and bugbears to show their faces) before droppjng 10k on two of these things.

They are an incredible bit of kit, but they have their drawbacks and flaws already. Even Marques brownlee, the biggest apple fanboy reviewer, has said it’s amazing, but it’s very niche, and it’s not perfect. That it has some very nice points, but the tech isn’t up to speed with the vision. I believe he said something along the lines of it being the vision of the future on the tech of today.

I see that this device works very well for you, and the person you are arguing with is being dumb for not seeing that, but you must see that it works both ways. You are being a bit silly by claiming he is wrong when you are in the minority of specific cases that this VR headset works well for. Also, 3.5k is way too much to drop on one of these things. That’s a poor price point for what it does. It’s very “apple” to sell a product for 3.5k and just be like “yeah, no, thats what its worth” when if you give it a few months to a year the meta quest 4 (or some other companies VR set) will be out, copying a load of the tech and cool ideas (or more likely improving on the ones people like) but will cost half as much and wont be locked down to the apple ecosystem.

Glad its working out for you, but just like you said to the other commenter, “others may have different needs and different levels of consumer spending” to which i would add, the majority of people cant justify 3.5k on one of these, let alone almost 10k on two.

Your link didn’t and still doesn’t work.

Kind of weird to play the disability card like that. Even if your link worked and I was able to read about how this helps with any disability you have, that wouldn’t necessarily mean that dropping 3 times more money than it could possibly make sense to on this would be justified.

My point was that decades have gone by and basically 95% of the progress made toward decent VR has been made between 2014 and 2021. This device maybe represents another 2% bump. According to everyone but you, they’re still quite clunky.

Enjoy the drastically overpriced devices, and just btw the comment about how this wasn’t “that much money” turns my stomach. The privilege-o-meter exploded when you wrote that. The majority of the world’s population probably would survive for at least 1.5 years on that sum of money.

As for the weird online-person “I feel sorry for people who know you” shit, I would definitely go out of my way to not interact with someone so extremely out of touch with reality that they would gladly pay 10 grand for a drip of Apple’s latest buzz. I would strive for having friends who are opposite to that in every single way possible. I could be an asshole weirdo too and muse about how hard it must be for people who know you, but I’ll just leave things here.
