June 5th, 2023 will be remembered as the day when Apple introduced the future of computing, the Reality Pro mixed reality device that has appeared in countless reports ahead of its official unveiling. The AR/VR headset will not be perfect; it’ll be tethered to a battery you have to carry, and it will reportedly cost $3,000. But, as I explained already, that’s the compromise I’m ready to make to experience Apple’s transition to the post-iPhone future.
That said, I’d be excited about the Reality Pro regardless of my intention to purchase the headset. The Reality Pro headset will set new standards in the AR/VR world, forcing everyone to adapt. That might mean blatantly copying Apple, which many companies will do. Or it could mean employing similar tentpole standards.
One of Apple's top rivals in this space is Facebook's parent company Meta, which soft-launched the Quest 3 headset just a few days ago. And the Reality Pro headset might just save us from the Metaverse that Meta has been sinking billions into.
The post Apple Reality Pro headset might make Meta’s terrible Metaverse appealing – hear me out appeared first on BGR.
