Not a bad deal for those who pay for those services.

What does Apple bundles with their Vision Pro for $3500?

I don’t think either sound like a good deal to be honest

I thought the same. They're throwing in a ton of extras to try to sweeten the deal. Those ones you listed are probably $50/mo in total. Plus it says something about a bunch of sports subscriptions too, which are probably very pricey.

(also they want you hooked on those services so they can rebill you after 12 months)

I guess that's what, ~$600? But the odds of using all that on the same account and caring about the savings seems pretty niche.

Support for over 5 years, unlike google who'll kill this in around half that long?

3 months of Apple One I believe? (iCloud+, Apple TV, Apple Music, Arcade, Fitness+ and News+)

That the device you strap to your face isn't tracking your personal data.
