I've seen a few ideas that seem really interesting, just not at the price point Apple is offering. And honestly I'm just going to wait for these headsets to be smaller and lighter too before buying one. I don't think anyone at Apple is under the impression this device is going to be a money maker, but more of a gen-1 device to provide a place to start from for further work.
- Learning instruments in a guitar-hero way (Piano, guitar, drums)
- Cooking with timers and recipes right in front of you (will be even more doable with better internal displays in the future)
- Coding with virtual displays on-demand. This is another thing where we still need more resolution to make it really doable.
- Watching movies. Obviously a solo way of doing this but I could see it being big.
- (once these are much lighter and less intrusive) I could see these being huge for virtual workouts like Yoga, weight lifting, etc.
Also regarding your question, I'm trying to think of the "killer app" is for a currently successful device - iPhone. I mean, camera? Texting? Most people use tiktok a ton but I wouldn't consider that a killer app. I think it's more of the device providing a home for a bunch of different apps.
