Apple’s new headset meets reality
It will be interesting to see how this plays out, and if there really is a viable  Apple-scale device here.<p>The overarching XR vision makes sense to me -- that you could instantly drop into any kind of environment you might want to, whether for work or entertainment or socializing.<p>But who creates these environments, and for what purpose? They seem like they&#x27;d be quite expensive if done well, and if not done well, you wouldn&#x27;t want to go there unless you had to. If there aren&#x27;t great places to go, what justifies a $3K headset?<p>Meanwhile, with the reality of technical limitations, how good is the experience really going to be?<p>I suspect you&#x27;re going to be able to pay $3K to buy into some games and productivity software that, once the novelty wears off, are going to feel pretty mediocre and may never really get past the tech demo stage. And your hardware is going to be dreadfully obsolete in about 2-3 years too.<p>IDK, maybe I just have a lack of vision and I&#x27;m too down on this stuff.<p>I would like to try it and see!
