"the high cost is justified because over time, a Magic Leap headset can replace “your phones, your televisions, your laptops, your tablets, which add up to thousands of dollars"
Does he even believe this? Even by marketing standards, this is a stretch
- IntronExon 9y agoFrom what I’ve read, especially on Karl Guttag’s blog, Magic Leap is a sort of running joke. They’ve pivoted to make something a bit less useful than Hololens, with a patent history that reads like a fever dream. Bullshitting about the price after so many outright lies abou fiber scanning nonsense seems tame.
- wand3r 9y agoIpad - $220 Macbook Air - $900 iPhone 8 - $700 While anyone buying this will likely have all 3 of these (or similar) I can't imagine buying an untested beta version hardware device instead of the three above items. Those 3 devices would actually come in less in all likelihood. The HTV Vive is already supported with a fairly robust ecosystem and this hasn't even made it to the "creator edition" yet. It would be awesome if this is as amazing as they say it is but frankly its probably another Clinkle type company.
