The Future Of Apple Vision Pro: What Went Wrong?

Ғылым және технология

It's been a few months since Apple Vision Pro was released and the most surprising thing about the release is how quickly everyone stopped talking about it. Let's discuss a few reasons why the Vision Pro failed.

    Still love their phones and the iPad is still the best general purpose tablet. They nearly lost me in the Mac space until the M series chips just took it to the next level. I don’t like the price of this at all. As JT said, I’d be looking for a much bigger value equation. Devices that allow me to work better. My Mac, Phone are those.

I stopped using iphones in 2018 because of the X... and finally, I never had an apple watch, and stopped caring about ipads even before macs. Maybe I should thank apple, coz they pushed me to other possibilities outside of their Dome.

    I think the Vision Pro is a starting point, not an ending point for Apple. I expect it will have years of runway left and we’ll see how it does during that time. I am deep in the Apple ecosystem, but a headset is not on my radar now. When it’s twice as good and costs half as much, maybe then. Right now it’s a low volume niche and essentially beta product, which is totally fine. I didn’t get an iPhone until the 3GS launched either.

    She got a unit from Apple and bought one for herself. No idea if she kept it, but if the first one went back, then that is what she is using. As for her milking it, nothing wrong with that. She's an apple completionist. Her audience already knows that and carving out an AVP niche where her peers have moved on is not bad business decision.

    Like. VR is a technology that can't replace phones or computers. The reason why smartphones overtook most computers for basic users is because of being EASY and SMALL. Yeah even the 7" Galaxy Note were small compared to a PDI or MiniPC from the early 2000s. VR requires not just the helmet but also all the trackers and sensors to work properly. It's blocking your eyesight. And if people with phones already have problems imagine with something bombing info right to your eyes.

    While I agree about iPadOS, but I wholeheartedly disagree about the iPad itself: it’s a great product that can actually replace a computer for most home users, for professionals who only require word processing, presentations, etc. or for those who have access to some type of remote computer (such as VDI solutions); especially with the keyboard. I couldn’t stand going back to an actual computer for my home private stuffs, granted I couldn’t do •my• work with it. But the iPad is still a great product. Regarding to the Vision Pro, although I haven’t tried it myself, I feel like you are mostly right about it. While I love the technological step ahead of the device, I cannot find any proper usage at this stage. Technology hasn’t gone far enough for that just yet.

    After years in the tech industry and becoming obsessed with technologies (from a creator's POV, not a consumer's), Vision Pro is a masterpiece, both in terms of hardware and software. As I understand from your words, you are sad about why this product is not mature, which the answer is obvious, but it's 100% future. At least the project currently Im working on is an AR/LLM base app on Vision Pro. It wasn't possible before, but now it is due to the massive power of M3 + R1 and Swift (writing for other platforms is a pain in the back). I disliked the video as soon as I heard "at best at best a fun single-person entertainment device and, at worst, an expensive accessory for devices that don't really need it to be fully functional..."

    Looking at what they do with SE phones, and looking at Metas ray bans, it will be the exact same basic functionality but probably less immersive and with a phone sided ssd chip instead of a laptop sized one like on the pro. It will just be glasses, so it will give you the screen real estate, but it wont totally block light like a headset would, so it will be “less immersive” and more “functional”.

You can use an app called Cinephile to watch movies on an 80ft screen. How could I have done this before?... And how would I have done this on an airplane?

Actually, I could play some of the Arcade games directly on my Apple TV if I were to get a wireless controller and that alone might enhance the experience a bit (w/o the need for a Vision Pro).

    I can’t lie, the high price point coupled with the bad head strap situation means I won’t recommend the AVP to anyone except my tech nerd friends. One thing I have to disagree with, though, is the killer app situation. I’ve come to realize that VisionOS itself is the killer app. This headset all but replaced my iPad and even some of my Mac usage due to having so much crossover in the realm of apps that I use. The kicker is that I can have my desk/setup literally wherever I’m at. I stream my games and access the internet in every way I want to all while watching TV in the bed with my wife. My house chores have now become things I look forward to because I can still watch your videos and my twitch streams while elbows deep in the dishes or vacuuming the house. And now that PCVR works through ALVR, I don’t even touch my Rift S any more. Tl:dr when Apple finally manages to put VisionOS on a pair of maybe slightly bulky glasses, I will be throwing my money at them because having my phone floating around me means I’ll never have to look at my beloved tiny glass rectangle in my hand again.

    Except, odds are good that they are already close to break even on it. If a product is profitable, how are you failing? How much does one unit cost to make? Maybe $1500? 200,000 units sold x $2000 profit = $400,000,000. Designing it for 8 years with a team of about 500 people, plus standing up the factory, you probably get somewhere close to $1 billion dollars sunk into development. This is hobby grade money for Apple. Now factor that it’s going on sale in 5 European countries now and anticipated sales are 450,000 units this year. It should be profitable by next spring…. Without any other sales of apps, accessories, or entertainment content that will come. $ Not a failure $

    I bought two 1tb models and I'm enjoying incorporating them into my music and video work flow. Moog has some nice programs just for it. I love the Vr Model Mini D, so much fun, I can even take my synth to the park and get inspired. Gaming on Steam is great and FaceTime is awesome. Vision Pro just made me Breakfast. This thing was cheap considering the hardware quality was perfection. It's not for everyone obviously, but I wouldn't say it's a failure.

    AVP is projected to sell 400,000-500,000 units by end of 2024 globally. Multiply that by $3500 (avg price going to be higher but let’s make it simple) that’s over $1.4 BILLION in revenue for a brand new product category and a VERY expensive product at that. At full Apple margin I might add. Granted, I am sure Apple still losing money because of marketing cost, R&D cost etc, but it just started FFS. But sure,… a “failure” 🤡

    Apple iOS integration is the magic sauce though. I actually bought a new quest to compare and it only seemed like 20% better than the quest 2 I sold. Once I’d played all the games, my quest just sat for a year- quest 3 is going to be returned as well. To be fair, I’m deep in the Apple ecosystem, so quest just doesn’t hold a candle to Vision Pro for the following reasons: - My whole movie library is readily available - Disney plus movies in 3D are amazing - 4k screens on AVP aren’t even comparable to the quest displays for video Lastly, it just works- it’s insanely enjoyable to view decades of media captured on iPhone through this headset. No effort or transferring required on my part. It’s all just there, ready to enjoy. I would never argue that it’s a perfect or even worth the price, but honestly, I have enjoyed the Vision Pro far more than expected.

    Failure may depend, because this is the first time Apple releases a new product category starting with the Pro. Which means, it is not ready for Mainstream consumption. Also, it is not produced in massive quantities, so they were expecting not a lot of sales. I think this is a gadget that will excel in the FUTURE, NOT NOW.

    It sounds like you are not the target customer. You bought one and tried it out and ended up returning it because it wasn't worth it for you. Which is fine because you should not keep anything just to make videos on. However your take just sounds very basic without any real depth beyond, price is too high, no killer app, and no one cares because of low views on your channel. I guess you could say the VP failed to maintain the hype

    If it was the Microsoft Vision Pro, or the Metaverse Vision Pro, or the Google Vision Pro, that would be all that we would be hearing.

    Yeah it was a pretty poor review. Lacked any insight into the purpose of the product. Just watch FPT’s review if you want an understanding of Apples mission here. This guy is just a typical tech reviewer where if he doesn’t like something, you shouldn’t either. I learnt nothing from this video. The fact he returned it just weeks after owning it shows he doesn’t care enough about the product to waste our time watching a review about it. The best way to show your disinterest is to say nothing and let the viewers get the idea. Just bear in mind, the thumbnail to this video was very different originally. It gave me major Steve Bullmer vibes when talking about the original iPhone.

I buy most Apple products, but I wouldn’t splash as much money on something I just couldn’t use much.

    Was always a dumb idea. VR and AR remain niche as hell. I knew this would most likely fail because 1) They can't even convince gamers to mass adopt it. And gaming is really the one area where you can most make an argument for its use. But just look at sales figures of the Meta Quest or the PSVR......they are not huge. Not at all. They too are niche products. So how were they ever going to convince the mainstream...the average person...to strap a device onto their heads to do regular stuff? 2) The failure of 3D TVs. They failed because the vast majority of people simply were not willing to wear 3D glasses while watching TV at home. Now if most people wont wear those thin and light 3D glasses to watch TV at home.....what on earth makes Apple think that most people will be willing to wear a large pair of uncomfortable ski googles to watch tv and movies at home? And humans are social animals and 3) It is a solution to a problem that does not exist. No one using a screen in front of them thinks to themselves....."you know what would make this better?.....a large bulky device strapped to my head".
