Apple is not exactly downgrading the cheaper Vision Pros but there will be massive changes.

    People said the same thing when the original Vision Pro came out. Aside from some rich people flexing that they own one, I haven’t heard anything about it after one week of release.

      Sounds like a successful product launch, good enough to justify a second product in the line.

      The rich flexing inspires desire. People don’t want a Lamborghini because it is the best car, they want a Lamborghini because they envy people who have one.

        Go do the demo. It is honestly really impressive. Had no intention of doing it, I’m not the target demographic or audience, but I was there to get a battery replaced and while I waited they did it. My jaw dropped at least twice.

        I’m at a loss for the kind of things it can do for me day-to-day right now (and yeah, they have to come up with good selling points there), but for a virtual desktop I’d be there if it were cheaper. But you kinda see where they’re heading - glasses where you could read the web, check weather, watch tv, or play games, the UI, and the phone is just a computing brick that sits in your pocket all day
