Well one thing is for sure, Apple won't have to worry about anyone else trying to build a similar product. I think most still think VR is a very niche market and $3500 Vision Pro won't change that.

$3,500 for phone apps, vids, pics and other media to float around you, all that with 2 hours battery life. Pretty much only Apple would be happy to claim as a big selling point that their device will work all day if it's plugged into a dedicated power source (wall plug). Truly revolutionary.

How? Who is the target audience here? Couples? Families/parents with kids? Any living being who lives and socialize with others? How is isolation yourself at home going to work exactly and be tolerated by others around you? Or are you going to spend $7,000 for two headsets so you and your partner can enjoy together a dumber way to spend a movie night?

Sure some very small amount of people able to afford this and being totally alone will actually enjoy using it and lying to themselves while watching their porn content but for everything else... yeah, no, lol.

They go as far as to say how this is going to replace iPhone; yeah, let me put my headset over my head to check a message or call a taxi, far faster, simpler and easier than just taking a SMALLER phone out to do so, yep 👍 Not.

There are many unique, useful and creative features in this device and there are many compromises, this is the cutting edge of the state of art for VR today. Of all the offerings in the market this devices makes the most sense, evern with its compromises and limitations, thanks to Apples ecosystem and ethos. It will be a slow burn, but being in the field means Apple can mature their offering over the next decade and potentially lead.

Now that VR is ticked off the list, how about some serious AI integrated products, the hardware is already backed in the Apple Silicon.
