I’m wondering in what way that’s different than buying yourself a 65” OLED TV with an expensive surround sound system and then making yourself watch movies to justify the many dollars of investment.
It almost seems like an accident that the product is notable and gets use.

- dangus 3y agoiPad sales peaked 10 years ago and Apple never cut iPad sales forecasts by 50% like they did with the Vision Pro. Don’t fall into the trap of assuming that Apple only makes successful products. They have had poorly selling/discontinued recent product launches like the iPhone mini and HomePod. The VR market as a whole is contracting.
- khazhoux 3y agoI have a 65” actually. The AVP is like having a 200”+ screen. And this isn’t about “hur dur everything bigger is better.” You actually do appreciate cinematography more at a large scale. I’ve had to pause, e.g., some shots in Kill Bill and Gravity just to marvel at the stunning visual compositions. Never once did that on my TV. Oh, here’s something that’s not obvious: the movie screen (and all images) looks matte inside the AVP. This works exceptionally well for films.
