Summary

Tech giant pulls the plug on its much-hyped VR headset, admitting the market wasn’t ready—or the price too steep. After years of hype, developer partnerships, and ambitious ecosystem plans, sales fell short, forcing a strategic retreat. While critics debate whether VR is too niche or if the company’s execution failed, the company isn’t quitting VR entirely—instead pivoting toward enterprise solutions and integrating immersive tech into existing products. A sobering reminder that even groundbreaking tech needs a compelling reason for people to adopt it.
