As Apple prepares to unveil its all-new mixed-reality headset, enthusiasm for the project among some staff has given way to skepticism, a new report claims.
Apple is expected to launch its first mixed-reality headset in the next few months, but a report by the New York Times on Sunday suggests that some at the company have doubts about its potential for success.
Related Videos Concerns include the reported eye-popping price tag of around $3,000, as well as doubts about the usefulness of the device in a largely unproven market. Three people with knowledge of the matter claimed that some employees walked away from Apple’s headset project because they had concerns about its ability to succeed, while others have apparently been fired after failing to make significant headway with certain features linked to the device.
The Times’ revelation comes as Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reported on a recent top-secret event at Apple’s California headquarters where the new headset was shown off to the so-called “Top 100,” a group comprising Apple’s most senior executives.
