New Delhi: Mahindra Group Chairman, Anand Mahindra’s tweet on Apple’s new VR headset, ‘Vision Pro’, has sparked a debate. Mahindra reacts to Apple’s ad showcasing the use of the innovative VR headset.
Anand questioned whether this development could potentially signal the death of the large-screen TV display.
