Apple's Vision Pro has a familiar fatal flaw: They are nerd goggles that will make most people look uncool
: It's another pair of nerd goggles that will make most people look decidedly uncool.
Scott Galloway doesn't always make the best calls on the future of technology, but the NYU marketing professor hit the nail on the head when describing the magic of Apple products back in 2017. ."An iPhone is saying to the opposite sex or to a potential mate, 'I have good genes. You should mate with me.'"A green text from someone from an Android phone, on the other hand, can elicit judgment, as Android devices are generally cheaper. The response may not be honorable, but it's often the case. It's a big part of what the most profitable computing device in history and helped Apple's market valuation skyrocket to $2.8 trillion.
Now, imagine that same person wearing the Pro Vision headset at the airport. They are going to look either silly or disconnected from reality. At best, wearing this device on your face will suggest that you love video games and Apple devices intensely — so intensely that you may not have much love left for other humans. There's a market for that, but it's a lot smaller than the one created by the iPhone.
