    I doubt it’s for their fun headset since they’ve already abandoned it. I’m sure it’s going to be taking data for mapping or some other dumb bullshit with AI to describe what’s around you because you can’t fucking use your eyes.

    Apple is so bad now. Ugh.

        They’re just stopping development of the Pro to focus on the cheaper model so not necessarily abandoned

          I was trying to call out that dude as an idiot without getting flamed for it. Seems like they’re doing a great job of flaming themselves though. I knew it wasn’t abandoned.

          Remove the unnecessary outwardly facing “eyeball screens”. There, cheaper.

          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

              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, and your own source proves it.
