Unjerk for a moment. How much should something like this cost? Serious question. Seems like it can do things other devices really can’t. Saw a video yesterday from a programmer who said it could replicate an impossible physical setup. I don’t have a need for it but maybe someone else can see the value.
Every single reviewer is saying that the quality of the VR and specially the AR blows any competition out of the water. I highly doubt your comment is true.
%20-%30 would be better imo.
Yeah, it’s the best headset for certain tasks, and can do alot of enterprise stuff, but why does it cost %50 more then what it cost to build? Most users won’t use any of the high level features for more then just flexing to friends.
But oh no, they claim we need to pay more because of “research and development”
Like what? Why is that our problem? People who buy apple products are them paying for the research and development of new apple products. We already pay for shipping, why do we have to pay more for apple to make new stuff that most of us can’t afford anyways?
I didn’t pay for that, and it wasn’t even mentioned when I bought my Honda civic. Should I have to pay %50 more because the civics have been researched, and redesigned several times over the past 50 years?
Seriously, Apple keeps gouging it’s users/fans because for some reason apple users keep defending and praising them for their anti consumer practices.
bill of materials” for the headset at $1,542, and that doesn’t include the costs of research and development, packaging, marketing or Apple’s profit margin.
The reason: Apple.

The Quest 3 is capable of the same stuff and is only $500.
Adding the Valve Index is a another high end model that does all this and more for $1000.
The big difference is the Apple’s AR features

Maybe not %50 of what it costs to build?
