    Instead, the top strap is being considered as an optional extra purchase. It is perhaps telling that when Apple announced the Vision Pro’s price at WWDC, it said the headset would “start at $3499” leaving room for optional upgrades and extras.

    Damnnnn that price point is brutal

        This literally has Pro in the name, it IS the Pro model. I imagine they want to get some devs working on this and sell it as a high-cost proof of concept, with more mass-market models further down the line.

    Imagine charging $3500 and leaving out a strap that probably costs 20 cents to make?

          I had already stopped buying their products a few years ago because of similar moves. I didn’t write that I would stop buying ar future, not yet launched product based on this specific article.

    At that price, I expect it to come with extra bits and bobbles. But Apple will just justify the omission by claiming it’s better for the environment or something. Deep sighs.
