I never knew so many people would buy an AR headset of apple.

I'm not surprised so many would buy it, but it surprised we reached this number before the first reviews. That a brand new line of product and I'm not even sure what people will use it for 😶

I thought the same thing when the Apple Watch first released. Smart watches had been around for a while, but they didn’t become prolific until Apple joined the party.

I don’t think Vision is going to be as prolific by any means, but I expect to see it fairly commonly in 5 years. The price will come down, the ecosystem will grow, and it’ll find its niche.

I think smart watches had a few iterations before they found how to sell them. Now it's mostly marketed around health, which I don't recall being the case a few years ago?
