TECH FAILS of 2024: Apple Vision Pro - Why $3,500 VR headset flopped?

Today, we're diving into the Apple Vision Pro and why it’s one of the
biggest tech flops of 2024. You know, Apple hyped this thing like it
was going to change the game, but after all that excitement, a lot of
people are returning their headsets. Here's why.

First off, let's talk about the basics. You'd think a $3,500 VR
headset would come loaded with cool apps and games, right? Nope. The
Vision Pro is seriously lacking in content. There's no support for
popular streaming services, VR games are basically nonexistent, and
you can't even connect it to your iPhone or iPad for a seamless
experience. It's like Apple launched a Ferrari without any roads to
drive on. It’s all shiny and impressive, but totally useless without
the right infrastructure.

And let's not forget the complaints about the hardware itself. A lot
of users are grumbling about the fit issues with the light seal. It's
not just about comfort; we're talking about light leaks that ruin the
experience and give you headaches. Apple is supposed to be all about
design, so how did they mess this up? You can try swapping out the
light seals, but for the price you paid, that should be the last thing
on your mind.

And let's be real—the price is ridiculous. $3,500 for a VR headset is
already steep, but with accessories and AppleCare+, you're easily
pushing over $4,000. Compare that to Meta's VR headsets, which are not
only way cheaper but also come with a ton of apps and games. Plus, you
can actually connect Meta's headsets to your phone or computer, making
them far more versatile. It’s like Apple’s trying to sell you a luxury
yacht when all you really need is a speedboat.

Finally, some people bought it just to try it out. Apple's return
policy is pretty generous—you can return any device within 14 days as
long as it’s in good condition. So, a bunch of folks got the Vision
Pro just to take a selfie or two for social media and then sent it
back. It's like renting a Ferrari for a weekend, posting a few pics,
and then returning it. Not exactly a ringing endorsement, right?

So there you have it. The Apple Vision Pro seemed like it was going to
be the next big thing, but it turned out to be a total flop. From
light leaks to eye strain, weight issues, lack of apps, and that
insane price tag, it's no wonder people are returning it. What do you
think? Did Apple drop the ball, or is this just part of the growing
pains with new tech? Let me know in the comments, and don't forget to

Can't believe they thought they could sell a VR headset for that much, especially when there are more affordable options out there that do pretty much the same thing.

@Herteldn 1 month ago

Should've included more groundbreaking features for that price tag. 😕

@zeynepkayiran919 1 month ago

The tech is cool and all, but even in 2024, it feels like companies still don't get that VR won't take off until it's accessible to more people. 🤷‍♂️

@egegur9959 1 month ago

I got to test the Apple Vision Pro, and while it's sleek, there's no way I'm dropping that much cash for VR. Not yet.

@emretasdelen3541 1 month ago

Should've seen this coming. A $3,500 headset in an economy like this? No way.

@mustafaxreall 1 month ago

I feel like they aimed too high for a market that's still warming up to VR. Needed a middle-of-the-road option maybe?

@isminazbadak5815 1 month ago

The price killed it.

@mesudecevik232 1 month ago

I thought it's a scam first, but when I saw it in person, the build quality is impressive. It's just too expensive for what it offers.

@nanina1337 1 month ago

I literally thought it was a scam first, but dang, Apple really did try to push the boundaries. Too bad they missed the 'affordability' part that most of us care about.

@Kadirtrhn49 1 month ago

VR is still a niche, and Apple misjudged how willing people would be to invest at such a high price point.

@gonulpural 1 month ago

i was skeptical at first but gave it a chance during a demo, impressive tech but not at that price point, no way.

@munirelkoca6336 1 month ago

Honestly, I'm not surprised it flopped. It was overpriced from the get-go, the market isn't ready for a $3,500 VR set when there are cheaper and equally good alternatives.

@intizar_1666 1 month ago

I was unsure about the Apple Vision Pro at first because of the price, but after trying it, I can't say it's worth the cost. Other headsets offer better value.
