I really hope they won't cut the quality of the screen for the cheaper model. If the experience gets worse people will start having the same issues as the Meta Quest, where text on screens will be hard to read. If things become less fluent users will start to feel dizzy and it will feel less natural to us the device.

I was looking forward to getting one, but the $3,500 price is just way too expensive and if not many people get the device, developers won't care about the device. And that would be really bad for external app support.

I think that is largely why they are introducing it at this price.

If they didn’t hit a certain level of screen quality/ resolution, it wouldn’t be useable as a head-mounted PC.

So my guess would be that a cheaper model gets introduced with similar specs and features to the AVP as we have now…. But launch it alongside an Apple vision pro 2 that has even better specs.
