Apple Vision Pro

Expensive.

I have an old Oculus Rift that attaches to my PC and its video card. It works ok but the long cable is irritating, and it does not have augmented reality since you cannot see through the visor. There have been improvements and I thought about getting the latest Oculus Quest 3. It is self-contained and costs $500.

So, when Apple announced its VR headset, I was very surprised at the $3,500 price tag. Is the headset actually worth that much or is Apple exacting an early-adopter tax on a bunch of rich people?

I think I will wait for the inevitable Apple Vision Pro 2. Hopefully the pricing will be more reasonable.
