๐Ÿ‡ Grapevine Scoop: Apple Vision Pro's Quick Exit! Whoa, hold the phone! Tim is kinda cook(ed) Apple is reportedly pulling the plug on the Vision Pro by the end of 2024โ€”talk about a speedy exit! At $3,499, this headset just couldnโ€™t find its groove in the U.S. market, with demand plummeting faster than you can say โ€œTim Cook.โ€ ๐Ÿ˜ณ Looks like itโ€™s time for Apple to rethink its game plan or maybe swap out Tim for an innovator? I kinda knew a $3,500 price tag would be a buzzkill โœจ My thoughts: 1) First principles matter. The core question isn't "Will people buy an expensive headset?" but "What fundamentally transforms human-computer interaction?" Apple usually gets this right. 2) Price is a red herring. When iPhone launched at $499-599 in 2007, many claimed it was DOA. The real question is value creation. Vision Pro's issue isn't the $3,499 price tagโ€”it's that the delta between price and value isn't clear enough yet. - i could be wrong.
