Apple Vision S Lite Mini
I was really thinking that EyeSight would be the first thing to be touchbarred but it looks like I might be wrong.
Anyway, we got plenty of time before the headset’s release. Original iPhone was announced at $1000 but rapidly saw its price go down to $500. Let’s hope for the best
Had this same conversation with my wife. Vision Pro is the “throw it all at the wall and see what sticks” model with all of the bells and whistles. If they find stuff is over-built or not utilized, they’ll target those areas for future cost savings.
For example, right now (without having used it), I’m skeptical if the finger-tap/pinch movements with their specialized tracking and cameras is more valuable than a more economical input method.
It’s the beta test that people will pay $3500 for to be beta testers for Apple and claim “first!” status. Then they’ll come out with a $1000 to $1500 “regular person” model.
It’s not really surprising, it’s probably the best way to develop something when you’re unsure what the market is and what the technology requirements are. Making a cheap product first just means doomed to failure because all people will see is cheap. Make something good first, and people will remember that.
