    That already existed on psvr 4 years ago and I think take up was minimal. Again, it could be something that apple can popularise, now the technology is better, but it won’t be ground breaking.

      Psvr has the issue of having to buy a console and the headset. Though they may be cheaper compared to vision pro they have the gaming stigma around it while this has the luxury brand on it.
      How many billionaires will buy a vision pro vs how many would buy the psX + psvr?

      This is a device suitable for the masses.

        Yes, but many millions of the kind of people that would be interested already have a ps5. For those that don’t, it’s still cheaper to buy both twice over.

        It’s designed for vr, not at, so the video pass through is sufficient rather than great. It’s still a huge step up and hopefully, so is the apple headset.

          The psvr2 is geniunly interesting. Alone for the adaptive resolution scaling.
          Too bad it only works on PS for now

      The groundbreaking part is to take that tech, refine it, and sell a metric fuckton of hardware. Groundbreaking is seeing all these disparate, unconnected technologies come together into something new.
