Yeah see, this is the exact comparison I’ve been dying to read. If Apple managed to pull off cost-reducing that grade of hardware then they’ll probably carve out a nice niche for themselves. They never designed it for mass-market adoption.
It was the same with everyone complaining about the cost of the XDR display. Not a single one of them were in the target market for it. People that were, were all talking about them pulling off matching the specs of an $8-10k reference monitor for $5k.
Also, Varjo charges a €1495/year subscription for their high end XR headset that already costs €6495. If the VP truly is close too or as good as it, then Apple are definitely going to sell a lot to professionals and creatives.
No One is going to be using a bloody Meta Quest for creative or professional work.
