I don't mind cheaper headsets as impulse purchases to just wait for better games and experiences to come out. But at this price I need to feel like I'm missing something and don't feel that way, am I missing something?
Assuming the Apple headset has similar features and quality as Varjo XR-3 ($5,995.00) + better ergonomics, I will definitely consider buying it for that price. https://varjo.com/
Thinking apple would ship a first version that maxes out in hw specs shows a lack of historical understanding of apples past behavior. Given their history we can expect: nice form factor, minimal features, easy to use, minimal specs, priced higher than what the specs would suggest
Whatever they do, they must not call it iSight. It’s a painfully bad pun.
Regardless, there is 0% chance they call it iSight.
Why would I want this by the way? I don't mind cheaper headsets as impulse purchases to just wait for better games and experiences to come out. But at this price I need to feel like I'm missing something and don't feel that way, am I missing something?

He also has been saying there is some insane tech partnership with the NFL to bring an immersive viewing experience to the headset.
it should look like glasses if it looks like a giant face mask like the VIVE or the other one from facebook, then it'll flop, meaning it will stay as a niche market VR/AR should be an evolution of glasses, not a downgrade, not something else Something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R95olc9iQE4 I'd buy this instantly, and i don't even wear glasses

While there maybe a 2K version, I would be very surprised if that were the starting point. Rather like their other products they will offer higher-end versions. There is a lot of tech going into these that will make the base price a bit high since most people we consider this an accessory like a watch that's for fun, rather than something required like a phone or computer. I'm sure Apple will be able to condition peo…
> when competitors are $300 Something tells me Apple doesn't consider Oculus quest much of a competitor. The Quest is 99.99% used for gaming. Essentially nothing else. I doubt gaming will even be much of a focus for the Apple headset.
Besides, what other stahndslone headset is being shipped in any real volume but the quest? Meta has hinted at future AR updates to the quest so that should compete even more with apples goals.

I don't think low specs work with VR/AR market. IMHO technology is still not good enough and still developing.
I’d wager the current iPhones chip is more than capable to exceed an oculus quest type experience.
