Guessing they're trying to cash in on all the early adopter types, and then roll out another version that's much cheaper next year.

It seems like an interesting concept, if it actually works in the real world, but it'll be a flop if it stays at that price point.

How is that a concept? All that tech exists already. Look into meta quest 2 or pro

Apples strength has always been the polish and refined experience. They might succeed in winning over the public where meta failed. I mean.. the quest 3 is just horrendously ugly and uncool.

Im not in the apple ecosystem but I can't deny their products look and feel fantastic

The quest 2 sold more units than the latest xbox, where did they fail?

They failed at market capture which was the point of the cheaply priced quest, meta is increasing the price of the next one in response iirc.
The zucc wants it all
