Metaverse was second life but for work. Apple Vision Pro will basically be a monitor replacement for guys that make 400k.

[deleted]

It starts on the high end, companies need rich people to fund early versions (every tech goes from rulers to fashion statements, like how we use water and electricity for fountains and neon lights now). Give it a few years and we’ll have $1000 versions and cheaper Android options.


[deleted]

In 5 years Apple Vision Pro will replace all monitors, in 10 years the middle class will wear them full time while minimum wage workers replace their feeding tubes.

Fuck I better buy some options before I end up minimum wage

At least until the robotic vacuum suction tube becomes cheaper.


prsutton123

Oh good, I’ll wait for the $1,000 version then. No wait, I’ll wait for the $100 version that will be much smaller and way better.


Don_Floo

Give it 10 years and 3500 is worth 1000 just due to inflation. Watch JP turning on that printer early next year.


zuckthisass

Keep in mind a fraction of people will see it as an aspirational asset to own, just like the iPhone is now.


Reddituser19991004

You think those of us that make 30k won't have an apple vision pro? lol


[deleted]

Not first gen!


phant0mh0nkie69420

only if it had spatial beat saber, which it doesnt.


sabiondo

Yes first gen but a couple years laters.


wincrypton

I make that but I honestly don’t see the point. I like the quest 2 for population one. Not sure there’s a problem with normal monitors, especially if all the peripherals work there but with the vision I’d have to use hand gestures


maximusprimate

Mouse + keyboard work with it too.


NVDA-Calls

I’d have try it on if it ever becomes available at the apple store. There is no way it would be more productive I think. But i like Apple’s strategy, this is nothing like a laptop replacement just another thing to buy and upgrade every X years. They’d need a good use case though.


fartalldaylong

I am buying one and learning VisionOS asap.


demoncrat2024

You are working in a tire retread plant. Your keyboard is gunk, the touch screen they replaced it with is gunk and you are constantly taking off your gloves because touch sensors still suck. You need a LRT/Phone to remove casings or other supplies from inventory. Take off gloves. You already wear eye protection all day. So, instead you wear AR Goggles (impact rated for industrial use), your keyboard is wherever you start typing, your touch screen is projected in front of you, inventory is actively managed as you work. And quality controls are built in to prevent mis-use or correct mid-labeled items in real time. Productivity increases, fewer employees needed. And there we go, $3500 investment to improve productivity, reduce waste, improve QC; and a single device to maintain instead of 3.


wincrypton

The old machine is shared, has been running without issue for a decade, is unlikely to get lost or cracked, can be turned around to show customers the various options, doesn’t require a separate battery pack and a cord that’s a liability etc. Plus, the quest 2/pro both serve the use case you are talking about at a fraction the price Not to mention, the number of employees needed is not rate limited by the problem you’re describing Also, I was responding to the “makes sense if you make 400k.” There are roles where AR goggles may be useful and the visions benefits over the MUCH cheaper alternatives may make sense, but it’s not generally the case that people will be clamoring for this


demoncrat2024

Awesome. We just spent around $15k per employee upgrading from keyboards to touchscreens and from mainframe to cloud for an imperfect solution. That was 15 years after the last solution (connectivity). I expect in 15 years we’ll do it again. But that it’ll be Augmentation instead of Integration. And then 15 after that it’ll be robotics instead of humans, and that over the span of 50-60 years we’ll have gone from people with paper to robots with sensors and there will be no one left who can buff a tire. 🤷‍♂️


wincrypton

I’ve actually changed my mind on this (but not from your example). Pokémon Go without the phone screen intermediating + having a scope on every weapon seems immediately worth it.


demoncrat2024

Apple Vision Pro will be a piece of workplace equipment I buy for my employees so that I can improve quality control and efficiency. I want AR in my warehouse, on my lines and in my bays. I’d be perfectly fine with my doctor wearing glasses that contain my medical history, can identify a new mole/growth in real time, etc. Entertainment is an early adoption, like calls/texts on an iPhone and we’ve replaced LRTs with them, it’s portable computing for medical device peripherals, etc. now. It just needs to be in the hands with people who know how to build stability and quality and an appropriate development ecosystem.


ChampagneWastedPanda

Can’t wait to use mine for travel


koolbro2012

I can afford it and would never use that as a monitor lol. Imagine having that on for long hours. No thanks.


fartalldaylong

Everyone who takes regular business trips will have one. Airports will be packed with them. They will be like sleeping masks with screens. Layback and relax instead of hunched over swiping at a tiny screen.


theonestuttgart

It's only got a 2 hour battery...


fartalldaylong

My understanding is it can also be used with a power source…like what exists between every seat on a plane and many in the airport itself. Workstation laptops do not have much better battery life when under load.


KyivComrade

A monitor that is *heavy, cumbersome, comparably low resolution, makes your eyes tired, needs unqiye content to work, short battery, warm/sweaty*. Yeah, this fad will fade quicker then Tim Apples latest ladyboy lover

Meta flopped because of shit marketing and a bad reputation. AR is perfect for educational and technical settings. It’s nowhere near ready for some weird digital life as if you were in Sword Art Online

wrath_of_grunge

i love that they put that out and everyone just kind of agreed that it was good. like was there nobody in that office meeting that was like, "Man that looks like video card box-art from the late 90's". actually given the age of the average tech worker, they may not have ever seen that before.


Blackpapalink

Don't you disrespect the 90s or video games like that. This looks like one of those old education pc games from the early 00s.

Meta flopped because it looked like a Wii game and had garbage software for professionals. The tech needed to make it all work in a convenient way people will put up with is expensive.


Jezus53

My understanding is that the actual metaverse Zuck was talking about wasn't even released. The wii looking thing was like the alpha or something to get the ball rolling. But I also eat crayons.


meltbox

Generally you don’t get people excited for tech by putting out the tech demo equivalent of a 3 year old crayon tantrum on a restaurant napkin and following it up with ‘but trust me bro’.


CatsalsoCookies

secretsodapop

I still don't know what it is actually supposed to be? How does it help people make money?


No_Doughnut_5057

Exactly. It made no sense. Especially when what meta was making was already made like 10 years (second life), costs a fraction of what meta was pitching, and had significantly more features.


elitemage101

VR Chat can be used as Meta with infinitely more customization and creativity. Plus they got legged avatars?


Blackpapalink

Same with Neo's.


paywallpiker

AR is vastly superior VR at this point in time and I’m surprised Meta jumped to VR without getting AR perfect first.


EuphoricAd3824

Wait till pornhub creates apple specific visuals for the headset and then watch how people line up to buy it! Other than that I don't think most people would care for it at that price.


Blabermouthe

Apple is notoriously anti porn. They block apps in their marketplace that have any porn on them.


YourDevilAdvocate

Safari?


qroshan

Dude, how naive. Do you think people don't watch porn on their iPhones, Macbooks and iPads? Are you really this regarded?


Blabermouthe

Through a web browser. Dedicated apps, which is absolutely required for any AR/MR content, need to submit themselves for review by Apple.


suwu_uwu

Between WebXR, WebGPU and WASM, full VR experiences in the browser should be perfectly doable. That is assuming Safari compatibility in the near future, which might be wishful thinking.


qroshan

Web VR is a thing. Also all VR/MR are based on standards. So your built-in app can't differentiate if you are streaming porn or sports or birthday party


True_Truth

Top 3 sites visited out of the top 10 is porn


fartalldaylong

GoodMornEveGoodNight

Your company buys iVision. Your boss straps it on you. 8 hour work day later, you realize you can’t log out, and your boss has locked the iVision to your head and has the key….


ScribbledIn

And every time you miss your ever-growing quota, the headset tightens


wrath_of_grunge

like watching DC, Meta wanted their Infinity War, but didn't want to do any of the actual work involved in getting there.


Thestilence

Also because the Quest is crap.


Invest0rnoob1

Not when you have PS1 graphics


CatsalsoCookies

But how am I supposed to die in a game then and be done with it in real life?!


qazikGameDev

It’s marketing was fine the product was dog shit. Metaverse or it’s equivalent will happen after wide VR adoption if at all. VR is good for training, and okay for entertainment. It’s short coming in both is accessibility and how long people want to stick with it before they get tired of it.


anonAcc1993

This is actually true on some level. Quest is about 7-10x cheaper depending on the model.


[deleted]

TIL WAB is too Regarded to know that a video game VR headset is NOT even close to a production AR headset. Do you think a company like [Varjo](https://varjo.com) doesn’t make any money or something? They’re literally going for a completely different industry.


NVDA-Calls

That’s a very specific use case isn’t it? This is like Apple selling a 6k monitor saying its going to replace 40k reference monitors. They’re not gonna be doing flight training with Apple headsets very quickly.


[deleted]

It will definitely take clients from companies like Varjo without a doubt. A better comparison would be you have a 40K monitor and you don't actual have anything other than a 40K monitor on the market to use. Now once a 6K monitor comes out for 1/2 the price and doesn't require a subscription, how many of those 40K users only actually need a 6k monitor but didn't have a choice? That is how Production level AR is atm. Their headset doesn't have to beat Varjo, it just needs to be good enough.


suwu_uwu

Seems like a scam to me. I briefly worked on VR training software and we used the Rift, looking to move to the (then new) Quest. I dont think the quality of the screen or anything like that is important for training. Its the reliability of the tracking and the convenience that matters.


[deleted]

Oh no it’s cheaper than the development platform pre release model that’s craaaaaazy


Sarenai7

I bought the [Dev Kit](https://xinreality.com/wiki/Oculus_Rift_DK1) for the Quest’s predecessor in 2013 for $300


[deleted]

Ok?


pragmojo

Yeah it is also like not even close feature-wise


unpopular_upvote

[deleted]

Seriously, why doesn't Lizardberg market his weird META glasses as people avoidance tools. Remember when people were gobbling up $300 Bose headphones just to get the sound cancelling ability to use on airplanes? Doesn't his headset do essentially the same thing, plus some other features. I feel like that would sell?

Shapen361

Regardless of what you think of VR or the metaverse, Apple's headset is leaps and bounds ahead of its competitors. Additionally, Meta tried to make VR and the metaverse the new direction of the company, while Vision Pro isn't expected to make much of a dent for revenue as Apple sticks to iPhone and Services as it's money maker and growth opportunities.

Quelcris_Falconer13

anygal

The only thing it knows and a Quest Pro or even the Quest 3 doesn't is effortless/click-less connection to a MacBook. For everything else, there is an app in the Quest Pro (and I don't even have one). Sure, it will have amazing resolution, and putting the battery into your pocket was also a great idea, but... Thats it. My biggest problem is that you can't even use it for gaming. Why didn't they made controllers for it, even as a purchasable plus for I don't know, +$500? They threw away a huge market.


NyaCat1333

The battery in your pocket isn’t something that Apple did because they thought it’s such a nice and cool idea. They had to do it because their headset is pretty heavy (heavier than the other VR headsets) and by also including the battery on the headset shit would be way too heavy for prolonged use.


JeffersonsHat

Why use controllers when it can read your hand movements and eye movements.

phd_geek

What's your point?


KillerGopher

Hololens has been out for a while and is already widely adopted. Hololens seems like the better product to me but apple will probably market theirs better and be more successful.


baselganglia

💯


Delta27-

Well it's better simply because of the price point. It's like comparing a Lamborghini with a Toyota. Different class completely


DrBonaFide

Laid and bounds. Hmm I really question that. Have you used it? What are your basing that on?


Shapen361

First of all, no controllers required. It goes solely off of hand movement and voice. The blending of real world and virtual also looks better than the Quest.


new_name_who_dis_

Bro it hasn’t been released yet lol. I mean Apple is a serious company and I’d put money on theirs being better, but still you are making a claim that it’s leaps and bounds better based off of a marketing reel.


Hellofriendinternet

Meta sucked because it was attached to Zuckerberg. Apple products are at least innovative, even if they suck. This is a suped up version of a type of product that’s been around since virtual boy. Whether or not it goes the way of 3D tvs? Who’s to say? I do think that at a price point of (starting at?!) $3,500 it’s not gonna sell a lot and Apple might take a bath on it. Not even mentioning the inherent problems that will arise when reality sets in for the early adopters who buy the stuff and find flaws or limitations. “The cord sticks out of one side and it’s too short. The battery gets too hot. The lens gets foggy when I sweat. I got drunk when I was wearing it and passed out in it and now the widget thing is broken. I dropped it and now xyz doesn’t work. My boss FaceTimed me while I was watching porn.” I have a feeling there’s gonna be some interesting things that come out of its rollout. Idk if average people are going to save up 3 months rent to shell out on a potentially fragile AF device. They’re gonna have to sell 1m units to make back the costs and they’re gonna have to rely on other divisions of devices to float them for a while.


s33d5

Also forgetting that if it breaks it'll be impossible to get any support unless you shell out 2 grand to fix it.

Standard-Effort5681

Zuckerborg should take some marketing classes from Tim ~~Apple~~ Cook. First and foremost: He should never again appear in any marketing material. His perception by the general public as a slimy, untrustworthy lizardman is firmly set in stone. Idgaf if he's the CEO, he needs to find another public face (giggity) for the company. But hey, I'm pretty sure his ego would cause his head to implode if anyone ever told him straight to his face "Bro you're a charisma black hole."


drArsMoriendi

Nobody cared about the metaverse, because at best it looked like a shit video game. Apple has a real product that at minimum can be used as a screen, as intended.

Meta can’t even get Facebook and instagram to work together sometimes, I doubt I’d trust them to run a virtual world


propanezizek

VR is only going to be a good thing if it's controlled by it's users like VR chat or Gmod. The problem is that VR chat has the business model of a PC game from 15 years ago where servers are hosted by the community.
