> AVP wasn't released early (late, if anything), and it wasn't a dud because of Tim Cook's disinterest.

Depends on what you mean by early.

WAs it released before the market was proven? yes.

Was the whole user experience up to scratch before it was released? no.

As someone who worked on the Quest pro/3 ecosystem, We were shitting our selves, because we knew that apple would only release something when the user experience was right.

Oculus just shat out features as and when performance cycles needed juicing.

Sure the UX was good, but it was less good than I expected. The headset was bulky and surprisingly off balance. It wasn't an all day wearable (i mean the quest pro was actually comfortable by comparison)

The resolution wasn't that great and the only thing you could do with it was either look like a twat recording video or have spreadsheets pasted everywhere. I was expecting an OS where we could put things on work tops, create augmentations to my room, decorate or be creative. Instead we got OSX XR.
