Just How Deep Is Mark Zuckerberg’s Metaverse Money Pit?

[ad_1] When it comes to measuring the progress of Mark Zuckerberg's metaverse, big numbers have been in short supply. Only 20 million of his Quest virtual reality headsets have sold since 2019. Only 200,000 users are reportedly active in Meta Platform Inc.'s flagship virtual reality experience, Horizon Worlds. Oh, actually, there is one big number: $21 billion lost on creating the Metaverse since the start of 2022.All this prompts an obvious question: Just how much money is Zuckerberg prepared to spend to make his Metaverse successful? Luckily for him, he doesn't have to answer that just yet. Meta's legacy business — selling online advertising — is roaring, with double digit revenue growth for the first time since the end of 2021.

WWDC23: What it’s like to try Apple’s new Vision Pro headset

[ad_1] Apple Inc on Monday let analysts and media, including Reuters, try its $3,499 Vision Pro headset.What is immediately clear is the device is not yet meant for a mass market: a test drive requires a setup session with Apple staff and a quick visit with a vision specialist to ensure the headset fits and functions as intended. And the price tag is likely to keep all but the most dedicated Apple fans and business users away. Instead of starting with a consumer version and working up to a "Pro" model, Apple is starting with the premium tier and hoping to bring prices down as the technology matures, said Carolina Milanesi, an analyst with Creative Strategies. Apple released the Vision Pro in an attempt to wrest the nascent headset category away from Meta Platforms Inc, which has already...

WWDC 2023: From iOS 17 to Apple Vision Pro, Know the BIGGEST announcements from the Apple event

[ad_1] Apple CEO Tim Cook began the annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2023's keynote session with a line that will be in people's minds for a while. He said, “Today we're going to make some of our biggest announcements ever at WWDC”. And big they were. In a show that ran for a little over two hours, Apple presenters were rushing as they showcased software and hardware products that were simply superb and could have headlined any event in a different year. We saw iOS 17 with a journal app, a standby display and customization features, the new M2 Ultra chip, Mac Pro getting Apple silicon for the first time, and more. And the reason for the unseemly rush became apparent by the time the second hour of the keynote session began. Apple gave almost an hour to the announcement of it...
