For more than seven years, Apple has been working secretly on spatial computers. In June, the fruits of that labor were finally unveiled to the public: the Apple Vision Pro.
One of Apple’s most controversial design decisions was to have an external battery for the device to reduce form factor and weight. The downside is that users have to plug the headset into the wall or carry a wired battery in their pocket. This is an atypical Apple design choice that Meta now happily exploits.
Let both companies lose, they are both very anti-user.
I honestly worry if that both Facebook and apple lose, it means VR is dead. They are the largest companies pushing the R&D of these devices, and without them, I could see VR being so niche that it basically does.
