Apple Vision Pro — here's how big analysts think it will be

www.tomsguide.com Apple Vision Pro — new report says 20 million users in 5 years

This is where the Vision Pro could go

I just wanted to hear what everyone's thoughts are on Apple's new product line coming out in 2024. Will this be the new iPad/iPhone? While the price is certainly prohibitive, from what I can tell from the keynote and promo, it really does seem like the real deal; a different way of interacting 'in space.' I think this is the step in the right direction for AR/VR to be more mainstream.

They are betting on it being the next big thing, but I don't think it is. One side note the images shows clear googles, I'm pretty sure their model has no clear through vision, isn't it a black opaque front with camera? So if battery dies you lose external vision. For a product to take off it has to fill a use-case and a buyer's need. Why is wearing a goggle needed, it is cumbersome and limited. Workplace use woyld be fatiguing. Google Glass had a better idea (you could interact with the world normal and have AR as a bonus. The cost of apple product is also a barrier to many, and so you would get poor people with no access to functions. Just seems like they will share the fate of Metas AR googles.
- I think that might actually be an external screen.
  
  So outsiders see your face from inside?
  
  Yeah. I guess two screens was easier to make work than one dual-purpose window-screen.
- The problem with see through AR glasses is that the actual VR view looks like ass because the tech to do it well is not there yet.
