Norm from Tested on yt had good things to say after his hands-on with the headset iirc a while back. This is just the price of a flagship VR device ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

For $3500 it better be good. But I doubt the value is added linearly since you get a pretty decent vr headset for under $800

Totally agree.

Relatedly, I think people would be surprised how little the Apple Tax really is when accounting for specs and performance. That said I'm sure the margin is quite a bit higher on this device than an mbp. It's very clearly not positioned for consumers but for businesses and bleeding edge enthusiasts
