People dismiss this as an expensive toy, but the Immersion Mode I experienced while demoing this blew my mind. It gave me goosebumps. The football demo where you get to watch a match hovering above the goals, and a demo where you're in a recording studio, face to face with Alicia Keys was simply incredible. I think ultimately this is where the product will live or die in the consumer space, content that justifies ownership, and a more affordable option.

It's an extremely good headset, hopefully the software improves but you get to see the future. Obviously it's expensive but they can charge that price because Meta Q3 is a superb headset but we get rubbish resolution and no oled so Apple are ruling the visuals at the moment. Relatively I think it would have been decent at just under £2000 but for the money it's certainly a better headset technology wise than any Pico, Quest or Varjo which costs much more. If they want large adoption they need to release a lite version next year but so far I am impressed with the VP. It's the first time I have been truly impressed with the visuals of a VR headset. My old Crystal was pretty decent but it wasn't close to the VP quality.

Plenty of reasons to use this while trying to get work done while sitting somewhere in public. You’ve never had a better portable multi screen setup. Beats just sitting with a laptop by a lot… that said I’ve never allowed myself to do that because the current stigma is deep. People viewing public use with contempt like dude here

One great thing Vision pro can do is we can watch our favourite show laying on the bed or couch and the screen will be on ceiling. Similarly, we can do multiple chores in the comfort of our own orientation.

I’m sure it’s fantastic but at $6K, it’s simply cost prohibitive for the true productive functional uses - I couldn’t make more money with this. In fact it’s so expensive that I’m not interested in trying it - a rich person’s toy. Oh, and I love Apple gear. This is much the same as buying a fully spec’ed up Merc.
@davidharraway8131Ай бұрын
Fair enough on the cost benefit equation. I have a few US based techie friends who love their VPs for Producutivity - extending desktop infinately from their Macs. I think the main use current case is for in the field virtual support by specialist technicians though...where downtime for complex systems is very expensive. I work in Assistive Technology and one of the less commented on features of this is the implementation of advanced eye tracking. At the moment Apple haven''t made an API for the eye tracking available for devs but if they have Eye Tracking built into the next iteration of VP OS (like it kind of is in iOS18....not so good though) then this could be used by people wth MND/ALS as a communication device.

@@davidharraway8131 there is no question that there are uses for it and with those willing to lay $6K on it, sure, you’d want to make it productive. Still, I also get the impression that many early adopters are frustrated by the rate of progress and I doubt many developers will make a living making apps for it. I’ll come back to it in a few years when the product line evolves.

I've watched an obscene amount of videos about the Vision Pro. It’s nice to finally see/hear an Aussie talking about it 😅 The pass through is something I’m a bit disappointed about. The degraded quality is purely because you’re looking through a camera. I wish it used better cameras. For 6k you’d think it would. I’m taking this Friday off. Picking up my headset at 9am. Very exciting 😄 Thanks for the vid
@AriSanXАй бұрын
The cameras can be used to take high res photos and videos so i assume the low passthrough is not due to the cameras themselves but rather the vision pros ability to send such a high res video in realtime at high refresh rate straight to the screens. From all the reviews ive watched the passthrough is the best in the industry at the moment.
@James-lw3giАй бұрын
@@AriSanX You make some good points. I’ve read the camera used for pass through is 6.5 MP, which isn’t great. I’ve also read it’s the best in the industry atm. I pick mine up tomorrow and own the others, so I’ll finally be able to compare them 😄

@@AriSanX I've owned many headsets, but currently, I only have the Quest 3. I don't get into VR gaming much, so the headsets always end up gathering dust. The Quest 3 screens are much better than the previous versions, but still not good enough. I wouldn't watch TV with that resolution. The VP will primarily be used for multimedia consumption. I hope to use it for productivity, but only time will tell if that becomes a reality. I have a mate who works at Apple; I'm getting a good discount on the device. Plus, if I do use it for work, I can salary sacrifice it. So while it is expensive, it's not that bad. Especially when compared to buying a 100” OLED TV 😄 I'll try and remember to come back here and let you know how I go tomorrow 👍

@James-lw3giАй бұрын
I have the Quest 3. It’s an excellent product for its price but doesn't compare to me. The Quest focuses more on gaming; the Vision Pro seems to be primarily a media consumption/productivity device. The marriage between hardware and software sets the VP apart; in my opinion, the UI in Meta is dated and clunky. Vision OS is the opposite. Plus, the Quest's screens, while better than their predecessors, are pretty bad. If my work PC looked like the Quest, I'd definitely complain. The OLED screens are so much nicer in the VP. So I guess you get what you pay for. Some people will compare the two and feel the extra $$$ isn't justified. I look at my quest and know I don't use it very much as its not a great experience for what I want to do.

Honestly, this comes across as a review by someone that hasn't tried a wide variety of VR/MA/AR headsets - from someone that has, its not that effective, uncomfortable, staggeringly limited and over priced. I just went for a Quest 3 for $1000 and with V67 OS installed it is little different from the AVP and yet has multiple social functions, endless games and can be used as a productivity tool - the AVP does productivity marginally better and with less friction - but the difference isn't huge.
