    Playing out the same way as the HomePod. Over engineered and expensive, doesn’t sell as well as they thought it would, R&D halts and reboots the product line with something much cheaper and easier to make.

    Instead of Apple Vision Pro 2, expect an ‘Air’ model.

    Their mini OLED screen is an absolute gamechanger but damn that thing must be expensive.

    Also if the battery is already external I don’t see why they didn’t put the processing off the headset too. The thing is way too heavy.

    “Okay… You win. We heard you loud and clear on pricing, so the new AFFORDABLE (I mean as far as we know - what’s a gallon of milk cost these days anyways? Like $27?) Apple iPod VR is only $2000!! Wow. What a real savings. You’re welcome. Brave. Also, minor thing, it doesn’t come with internal or external screens. But of course, you can purchase an additional subscription to unlock the ability to consume the audio of select limited content at 50% audio volume compared to original model!”

    Made your daddy proud… Proud.
