  • Why the Apple Vision Pro is so expensive?
    So at first you might think this is just about profits. But there are headsets that cost 2 or even 3 times as much, so Apple could've made it more expensive. $3,500 is actually a carefully chosen price, based on 3 factors.
    The last one might piss off iPhone users.
    3. Familiarity. So before Apple, Microsoft actually released a headset for the same price. Now while tech should get cheaper overtime, Apple went the extra mile. 2 processors, 12 cameras, and even a knob to filter out poor people.
    2. Gamers. So companies like Meta make more profit on games, than the headset. But Apple is avoiding gaming, so has to make almost all their profit on the headset.
    1. Confusion. Apple could have released a non-Pro product under $1,000. But then people would compare it to existing products, and realise it has way less apps and things to do. That's

    By April, Apple was also attempting to attract developers to make software and services for the headset. Apple filed over 5,000 patents for technologies which contributed to the development of Apple Vision Pro. Those 5,000 patents make up a lot of the price set at 3,500 for the base price. Without the patents, the Apple Vision Pro would cost about $1,542.

    "there are much mote expensive headsets"
    ...that's because those headsets are enterprise headsets marketed towards companies who can afford those. Apple Vision Pro is an overly expensive consumer headset
    Apple made it so expensive because
    1. They thought people would buy it (they didn't)
    2. To make it less accessible to the general public. It's basically a prototype in beta testing, not a finished product
    3. To raise the demand for VR. The general public now see Apple made this really expensive headset, they want it but they can't afford it. But when Apple releases a new Vision headset that's cheaper and addresses a lot of previous complaints, everyone will buy it

    Your points highlight that apple didn't put much features but still needed to make it expensive.
    1. Your first point isn't even valid.
    2. If they didn't put any games so they made it expensive to make profit. Doesn't it means that they didn't gave a feature and even made it more expensive.
    3. You yourself said that if it was cheap then after comparing we will see that it doesn't have much feature compared to others. So increasing the price doesn't make it better than others so there's no justifying the price and your points are random nonsense.
