AR / VR Headset - APPLE vs META. It's A Buy?

When $Apple(AAPL)$ announced its Q2 2023 quarterly earnings but did not follow up with an announcement of its augment reality (AR) headset, there was a bit of a disappointment. Why ? Becos it would’ve been the “next” new product for the world and its fans (of course!).

When Apple Does It, It's Different

Apple has finally unveiled its long-awaited Vision Pro, a mixed reality headset that has been the subject of speculation for many years. We now have a glimpse of its appearance and pricing, although the exact features and functionality are still unknown. This uncertainty surrounding the new device is reminiscent of past technological transitions, such as the shift from horse carriages to automobiles. During that time, many people were unsure if they truly needed cars. Similarly, when mobile phones without keypads evolved into smartphones, there were concerns about their bulky size and the lack of mechanical feedback for button presses. I personally started with an iPod Touch, which my colleagues didn't initially see the value in. However, I found great utility in the apps and functionalit

With the spring breeze of artificial intelligence, this graphics card giant has stepped into the "trillion market capitalization club".

My $Apple(AAPL)$ has grown to a sizeable portion of my portfolio formally within Tiger. Double digits to be certain. Then come the recent hullaballoo about Vision Pro and the surge in the stock price. Should I buy or sell Apple? Optimism Abound I am optimistic after watching the introduction by Apple on the new Vision Pro. If widely adopted, it seeks to consume the movie, streaming, hardware (think no more TVs) and gaming scene, plus totally render mobile phone obsolete on a long run. The price of $3,499 USD is indeed a premium but hey, this is Apple that we are talking about. Having the pricing power is good for a shareholder like me.

Vision Pro Is A New Milestone for Mixed Reality,but Not Next IPhone

Apple unveiled its long-awaited “mixed reality” headset on Monday. The gadget, called Vision Pro, will be available “early next year”. It combines virtual reality with augmented reality, which overlays digital images on top of the real world. Apple said it would sell for $3,499, even more than most analysts had expected and nearly 12 times the price of Meta’s Quest 2, the biggest-selling VR headset.Apple shares hit a record high ahead of the announcement, as the headset was unveiled, the shares ended the day 0.8 per cent lower at $179.58. How many people will actually buy this $3,499 device?

It's not just a boring old desktop or laptop or even a mobile device. It's spatial, which means your screens can appear anywhere in your view. Wah, like magic sia! But wait, is this product going to shake up the markets? Judging by the stock performance, I don't think the markets are very impressed leh. I mean, $3499 for something? I don't think it's going to be the next big thing with mass adoption, you know? We want everyone to buy it so Apple can make a lot of money.

Apple’s Revenue Could Get a Big Boost From AR/VR. Here’s One Estimate of How Much. Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference kicks off Monday, and expectations are high that the focus of the company’s keynote will be a widely anticipated and speculated about AR/VR headset. Near-term sales expectations for the device—which Apple $Apple(AAPL)$ has said nothing about—are modest. But there’s an argument that such a product could turn into a substantial business for Apple over the long run. Morgan Stanley analyst Erik Woodring made that case in a research note Friday, in which he reiterated his Overweight rating and lifted his price target on Apple shares to $190 from $185, entirely based on future augmented reality- and virtual reality-related reve

$Apple(AAPL)$  Apple Vision Pro will retail for $3,499, and it will be available for purchase in early 2024. For comparison, Meta announced its Quest 3 last week at the price point of $499, while its Quest 2 is retailing for $299. But Meta’s high-performance headset launched with a $1,499 price tag, though it seems like it’s available for $999 at a number of retailers. Unlike Meta’s headsets, the Apple Vision Pro uses augmented reality rather than virtual reality. The difference is that augmented reality is less immersive, allowing users to take advantage of the technology without being completely divorced from their surroundings. Plus, the Apple Vision Pro uses hand tracking as a control, eliminating the need to have separate handheld devic

After watching some $Apple(AAPL)$ Apple Vision Pro hands-on media and Youtuber reviews, the common point is to praise its high degree of completion. Eye tracking and empty-handed clicking technology is very similar to magic, which can make the interface interactive experience very easy and intuitive. Everyone thinks this It is definitely the best AR/VR headset on the market. As for the price of $3499, everyone knows that this is not a popular product. The first generation is a toy for developers, professionals and rich Geek players. As for what problem Vision Pro solves, or what value it brings, it depends largely on the software and applications developed in the future. I intuitively think that the most superficiall
