Though Apple's expensive headset was been praised for its cutting-edge technology, the device is expensive and hasn't yet been widely embraced at either home or work.
I feel like that’s saying that my computer monitor needs a “killer app”.
It seemed like a straight forward AR/VR device to me. There’s plenty it can already do… virtual displays and apps in 3d space, privately and on the go is just a start… it’s just WAY too expensive for people to want to do so.
Having a monitor at all has plenty of killer apps: Anything that it displays that you want to use that you wouldn’t be able to do otherwise without a monitor.
But your particular monitor? Well, it looks like the Apple VR thing is about 10x to 20x the price of a basic VR headset. Is your particular monitor 10x to 20x the cost of a regular monitor? If so, there probably is some killer app that made you get a fancy monitor. And maybe it’s something that no other monitor can do… otherwise, why spend 10x to 20x as much?
If the Apple VR thing also has a computer built in (and its own specialized software), then comparing it to a monitor isn’t accurate. It’s not a peripheral when it’s a standalone device.
Your computer as set up has enough killer apps to justify its cost. The Apple Vision Pro doesn’t have a killer app that justifies its cost over alternatives.

That’s the thing though, it has piles of them. Steam is absolutely jam packed with them. Additionally things like, video editors, photo editors, browsers, spreadsheets, word processors, code editors, etc, etc. All of these makes a monitor (or laptop screen) something almost everyone owns. All of these apps are best on a monitor.
What is best on a Vision Pro?
It’s just WAY too expensive for people to want to do so
Yep, the price can make or break a product. And the price makes this product…not good. Particularly when people don’t see much of a point in the product in the first place. VR headsets are niche as hell, the Vision Pro is a niche of a niche.
Yeah you’ll computer does have killer wraps it’s all of the programs that you can install. There isn’t anything the headset can do that you can’t do better on a desktop.
Is it trying to push the the computing angle they need apps that actually make use of the VR capabilities. As far as I’m aware they still don’t have a YouTube app. Even though YouTube has VR and 3D videos

Youtube discontinued their thing for SteamVR, and yet people still use SteamVR.
My monitor only runs its firmware
