    I want to wait until google releases their AR headset to see how well it competes with the vision pro. But by the looks of it, meta got punched brutally in the face by apple.

      I’m waiting on Apple realizing it’s an insane price for anyone other than developers, but hey, first generation of a new product. Hopefully if Google does release a competitive alternative, everyone will have to start competing again and we’ll see massive movement in the VR / AR space.
