Choose Your Reality Budget

Description

The image is a three-column price comparison table with blue headings, product photos, and bold prices. The left column says "Apple Vision Pro" above an Apple headset image and "$3,499"; the middle says "7-Day Costa Rica Ayahuasca Retreat" above a pot of plant material and "$1,999"; the right says "Meta Quest 3S VR Headset" above a white headset image and "$299." A faint watermark appears over the middle image area. The joke compares expensive spatial-computing hardware, a psychedelic retreat, and a budget VR headset as competing ways to alter reality, poking at AR/VR hype and the cost curve of immersive experiences.

  Having had both a 2 and 3 the price point makes it ideal for anyone who only intends for extremely light usage like watching Netflix or playing VRC. There's no reason not to just get a 3 unless money is a roadblock, which is the whole point of this new model
