Bloomberg says Apple was developing augmented reality glasses powered by its Mac computers, but it canceled the project before the company could even announce it.

        I mean, it’s still really cool tech. It’s just useless except for some very niche uses and it’s far too expressive

          Is why it’s a flop. Without the ability for people to buy it, it’s a paperweight, or at best, a cool science project from the smartest kid in class.

            Definitely true. I will say that the sheer amount of high tech crammed into the Vision Pro package necessitates that price tag. Not to mention the R&D and testing to do so. Like I completely understand why it costs as much as it does.

            Still not going to buy it though.

    Yeah, I’m not going to spend $3,500 to look like that in public, especially when I can look even dumber for free.
