    it should have been dead on the water day one.

    Wait, it wasn’t? I haven’t seen the balance sheet or anything but the number one thing anyone mentions about it is that it’s absurdly expensive.

        Next to nobody bought this one – who the hell is saying no one buys apple products period though? The problem with apple is that they are too big, so yes obviously most everyone buys their shit (I used to myself but never again) and yes that’s why they are a monopoly. What exactly are you on about?

          My snarky point was comparing the “nobody goes there it’s too crowded” joke to this.

          My actual point is that literally every Apple product has people who don’t buy them complaining about how expensive they are.

          Elsewhere in this post’s comments someone claimed that iPhones are raising in price and staying there (which is only true if you ignore inflation basically).

          The XDR display and its stand had gamers everywhere furious, because their monitors were much cheaper and came with a stand included in the price!

          If Apple were giving out free ice cream people would complain about how much it costs to add sprinkles.

            I’m unaware of anyone complaining about Apple in a way that is unfair to Apple. Their shit is expensive, so much so that even a well-established cult mentality can’t always overcome that sticker shock. Such as in the case of this stupid VR headset.

              You are literally on a community called apple_enthusiast where all of the comments on all of the posts are negative towards Apple and you can’t see any unfairness in that?

              Perhaps you’re just really biased?

                so it’s unfair if it’s common? defending a $3500 headset seems like “bias” to me.

                  Tell me you haven’t used a Vision Pro without telling me that you haven’t.

                  You are on the apple enthusiast community. I am pro-apple products but I don’t tend to go to android forums and spread misinformation about their products, so perhaps you could give the same courtesy.

                    lol

                    “people think $3500 is expensive, also people have good reason to criticize apple”

                    “that’s misinformation!!!”

                    what
