So great to hear more stuff from this "reliable" source. He either is plain wrong or just says what is 100% naturally expected or already confirmed by multiple other sources. I don't understand why this website still pays attention to his words.

      Nobody but Apple fanboys with hefty pockets will buy it, others will just buy Meta Quest 2.

            AR for some gimmicky applications, otherwise these goggles will be tied to the Apple services like TV+ and FaceTime, so essentially a phone glued to your eyes and little else (but Apple's marketing will make it magical, no doubt).

              This is Apples biggest product launch since many years ago

              The big questions are;
              1.will the technology be a game changer compared to Meta?
              2.will the whole thing be a tech fail?
              3.will the technology be nothing special but just saved by APPLE's brand influence?
              4.will Apple be able to implement it right?
              THESE BIG QUESTIONS AND SO MANY MORE

                Can they outsell the Virtual Boy 🤔

                  Blocking your vision is necessary for VR, though. Otherwise it causes motion sickness & screen glare
