MCU fans can’t resist having a laugh at Apple’s expense over the astronomical $3499 price tag on its upcoming mixed reality headset, Apple Vision Pro.
Apple CEO Tim Cook posted a triumphant tweet announcing the company’s new prohibitively priced spatial computing technology.
True to form, Marvel diehards took to social media to poke fun at Apple, joking that its virtual reality headset must meet Iron Man’s cutting-edge standards to justify its astronomical price.
One fan joked about the striking similarity between Apple Vision Pro and Tony Stark’s state-of-the-art virtual computing system.
Another fan toyed with using Apple’s groundbreaking technology to fulfill their fantasies of living large like Tony Stark.
Still, another fan basked in the notion of being part of the generation gets to take a small step towards living in Tony Stark’s shoes.
The highly anticipated mixed reality headset promises to revolutionize computing, entertainment, and gaming with immersive experiences. Per TechCrunch, Apple is displaying considerable confidence in consumers’ anticipated reception of the Vision Pro as it will compete with Meta’s $499 Quest 3 Virtual Reality headsets due for release in fall 2023.
One user honed in on how Apple could leverage a combination of its infrastructure and virtual reality to surpass Meta and other competitors.
All jokes aside, while fans insist that Vision Pro would have to be Jarvis to make it worth the asking price, it’s clear from its marketing campaign that Apple believes it can deliver a product along those lines. If true, they will have successfully created one headset to rule them all.
