Apple unveiled the $3,499 Vision Pro on Monday, its first-generation mixed reality headset. It's truly a full-fledged computer that mounts on your face. If you only heard the name and price of the gadget rather than watching the presentation, you might draw the wrong conclusions. Some people who didn't bother to learn about it actually think that Apple is overcharging for a device that you can buy for around $300 from competitors.
That's nowhere close to being the truth, however. The Vision Pro is "the most advanced personal electronics device ever," according to Apple. It's a device so rich in innovation that Apple patented more than 5,000 inventions while developing it.
All that futuristic tech can't be cheap to manufacture, especially in a first-gen device. And Apple showcased many of the innovations required to make a comfortable head-worn computer that looks just like a pair of ski goggles and packs the power of a bleeding-edge desktop PC.
