Most people don't have $3k of disposable income for a single non key purchase. How big even is this market, at $3k? 50 million people worldwide?

- FredPret 3y agoEven with 50 million people spending $3k, that’s still a $150b market. But there are lots more rich people in the world than that. And they will spend more than the initial cost, because they will buy apps, Apple Care, and next year some will buy version 2 of the headset.
- stocknoob 3y agoNext thing, you’ll tell me Apple wanted to charge $5k (inflation adjusted) for their new products in the 70s, and we know how that went. People simply don’t pay for new, powerful technology.
- oblio 3y agoIf you want to make it out like it was some huge success, remember IBM PC clones ruled the desktop market for decades, not Apple stuff :-)
- michelb 3y agoWhy do you think this current iteration is a consumer product? Whatever Apple comes out with, it's for developers and Youtubers.
