re: The VR & AR Thread | Virtual Reality & Augmented Reality One of those tech products I'm truly excited about. I've dabbled with VR and MR/AR headsets in the past and they have always felt off. Slightly, almost imperceptibly, but definitely off.
I'm hoping Apple's psychotic attention to detail (not sure it's still the case) helps deliver a really good experience here. Blown away by some of the demos so that's a good start. The $3500 price tag will probably be $6000 when it lands on our shores so that's a bit of a nuisance for sure, specially for a gen 1 product that's sure to be riddled with niggles and compromises.
Will likely end up getting the next gen though once they iron out the launch issues. The screens definitely look leaps and bounds better than the Oculi and mixed reality headsets I've tried. Readable, crisp text is the holy grail and this seems to have achieved it. |
