Comment on Apple Rumored to Be Working on AirPods With Built-in Cameras

This doesn’t say that the Vision Pro is abandoned at all.

In fact, it implies the opposite. They have paused development of a Vision Pro 2 and are instead accelerating development of their planned lower-cost headset.

Seems to me that they will be having the Vision Pro (1st gen) as their supported flagship for longer than expected.

the tech giant has suspended work on the next Vision Pro and is looking for ways to cut costs for a cheaper model that could ship by the end of next year

It absolutely does not. Which non-shitty version of their currently absolutely shitty headset did you think was going to be the magic one that actually works the way describe and advertise? Lolol

  Why do you think the headset doesn’t work as described or advertised?
  
  Its price is the main complaint I’ve seen.

    If you haven’t read or looked into this, it feels almost wrong to just boil it down for you.
    
    Watch one of their stupid commercials about it, then see if it works at all the way they delict it working. It does not. All it is now is a wearable monitor for desktop viewing. Things it does not do while clearly depicted as such:
    
    gaming
    
    multimedia presentations
    
    stream to other headsets
    
    have ANY sharable user positioning data (local or GPS)
    
    collaboration with other headset owners
    
    wireless anything (it’s got a heavy ass battery pack)
    
    literally has NONE of the apps that it had depicted it had in some presentations at initial dev announcement (Netflix, YouTube…etc), though they are usable in browser
    
    Anyway, you get the idea. There’s more, but why bother.

    You can play steam games on the Vision Pro via a PC.

  It absolutely does. I’m not sure why you’re trying to spread misinformation, but Apple clearly hasn’t dropped VR or the Vision Pro.

    I never said that. WTF are you talking about?

    Yes you did.
    
    I doubt it’s for their fun headset since they’ve already abandoned it.
