    I mean 3-4 different videos on the same day of people wearing them in public. Probably paid off influencers. Just a way to bring the product out there (It’s the first time I actually saw it, I don’t care about Apple products) and to normalize seeing them around. As if a normal guy would use a crosswalk, standing in the middle of the road while interacting with his Apple Vision, lol.

      Probably paid off influencers.

      Without having seen the videos, my thin-slice reaction is influencers using Apple as a kind of keyword stuff.

      Super-exclusive product at extremely high price point with enough interest to get searches/upvotes/likes. Ripe for influencers to get views for themselves, the publicity for Apple being a happy secondary effect.

      Wow yeah that is ridiculous lol. I have only seen MKBHD and Norm from Tested talk about it, and I sought those out. Marketing aside I think once they refine the product and price point it could be pretty compelling! I hope nobody is crossing streets with it in the meantime…
