Seems slightly more refined and seamless compared to other headsets.
Not sure exactly what I think to be honest... It's pricey, but looks good in theory.
I'll be interested if text really is as sharp as they claim it to be and if the latency is noticeably better than the Quest.
Also how they adjust for different IPD is extremely important, but I'm not sure they mentioned that at all? The Quest 2 has 3 three fixed IPD positions you can select from, but none of them are quite perfect for me and that makes the depth experience tiring and a little blurry.
For anyone who's used Quest 2 the idea that you would use it has a productivity device is absurd because although you can create virtual work spaces the resolution isn't even close to a high-res monitor and the whole experience gets tiring to the eye after a while. If Apple has solved this then it's 100% worth the price imo, but I think this is something I'd need to try before I buy because I'd personally not be spending this amount of money without knowing it's a significant step up from what Meta is offering for a much much cheaper price point with the Quest 3.
There's nothing that revolutionary here in my opinion. It just looks like a more refined Quest 3. Which isn't to say it's bad. I mean there's a reason I'm writing this on a Macbook.

Pretty much the same story as the iphone and apple watch, both of which have been massive hits. If they can actually execute on a standalone headset good enough to replace physical displays without significant compromise, I think people will be lining up to pay $3500 for it. My only reservation would be the lack of a "real" operating system.
I wanted both when they were announced. This looks looks like a thousand dollar aluminum monitor stand to me…basically something for Apple elitists with more money than good sense to buy to show off.
