I’m really curious how the visor headset gets reviewed and performs. Their subscription pricing model is interesting.
VR has had some interesting success in the last few years but it feels like a tough job to strike the right balance on cost and performance.
I am sure the senior managers and executives at Facebook are an arrogant bunch, but they still have a long ways to go before they can compete with Apple.
Or perhaps it was the recent fuckup with the "metaverse" that has made them a bit more cautious...
Didn't they cancel a different headset because the vision pro released, to develop this thing? Is it cause the vision pro isn't doing so well?
I wonder how much actual planning went into this.
Corpos are stupid, greedy pigs - but it should have been obvious from the go there isn't a real market for such expensive hardware yet.
The hardware isn't good enough for that price. Same with software.
And doubley so for Meta because pc gaming is an after-thought to them. Why would I spend multiple thousands of dollars to esentially play nothing but mobile games on a closed ecosystem.
I don't even want to spend $500 to upgrade to the Q3 from the Q2 for those reasons.
