    I'm just gonna ignore this thing and continue as if it never existed. Worked with Vision Pro that no body uses and will work with this.

      It is indeed a niche product. Its price reflects the sales expectations of Apple.

      But its form factor has been validated for almost a decade now from other manufacturers. So iPhone Duo will do fine. It will not surpass a slab iPhone but fine.

      Vision Pro was a completely new beast, the hardware was not there, the market was not there.

        The form factor of Vision Pro has also been validated for a decade from other manufacturers.

        And that means nothing. Because other manufacturers are not doing well either.

          Yeah the market had shown that anything bulkier/heavier than a pair of regular glasses is not acceptable. Not sure why apple released it unless it is a glorified dev kit that would allow devs imagine a use case for a product that is 10 years away.

            That is what the AVP is. They’re pretty open about this at launch and since.
