One scenario in the clip might have been a misstep.
Apple's ideal use case for this product is working first thing in the morning while you make breakfast for your kid. Bleak.

For $3500 I will personally come to your house and move your couch closer to the TV

The apple headset looks nice but $3500 for a headset that lets you have like really large iOS apps seems about $2000 too expensive

instead of paying $3500 on giant Apple Goggles you can simply give me that money and I will follow you around all day and hold your phone in front of your face so you no longer have to look at your children

For $3500 you can get a Quest 3 and the beefiest gaming computer possible to make all of your VR tasks a reality, or you can run iPad apps real big for two hours and speak to your coworkers with a synthetic face. Sure feels like a flop. https://t.co/VqN45gnnKZ
