Күн бұрынWhy Everyone is Wrong about the Apple Vision Pro. Use code UNDECIDED50 to get 50% OFF First Box and free wellness shots for life with any active subscription at bit.ly/3UlAohG! The Apple Vision Pro has a lot of hype, a lot of negativity, and a lot of snarky hot takes on social media surrounding it. Depending on who you listen to, it’s either the AR/VR headset that’s going to revolutionize the industry and the way we work, or it’s going to be Apple’s biggest failure. The truth is that it’s neither of those things. You might not have noticed, but I got my hands (or more like my face) on the Apple Vision Pro to experience it for myself. My take is that _everyone_, including Apple, is a bit wrong about the Apple Vision Pro. The age of spatial computing is coming, but is that future now? How will it impact our lives? And what’s it’s REALLY like?

I've been through 5 different VR systems and they all have the same issues. But the result is that it's a shiny new toy for 6 months and once the luster wears off, it gets dumped in the corner. Then a year later it stops getting supported. It's not there yet. Things they are going to need to do is make them the weight and shape/size of racing sunglasses. AND wavefront rendering. Eye damage is real with these VR sets. Basically you mess up the nerves controlling your focus in your lenses of your eyeballs. The jury is out on the medical studies because people never wear them long term, remember, they end up collecting dust and sitting in the corner after 6 months. If they make them lightweight and small as sunglasses but they don't make them wavefront, people will start reporting eye damage at some point. Though I believe they have a user agreement that you promise not to use it for too long at a time. So they are probably covered legally.

Due to symptoms of multiple sclerosis, my left eye turns in by a couple degrees. What I need in a VR or AR headset is a setting that will allow me to tell the device where each eye’s visual field is. Maybe there could be a red circle and a blue circle and I’d move them until they overlap into a single purple circle. Then I’d repeat the process for looking left, right, up, and down, so the device knows how to adjust its displays so what I see is aligned properly. All the tech specs are meaningless if I can’t even use the thing. Devices that don’t let you adjust such aspects of vision can’t really claim to be accessible. People vary in their ability to receive the signal so the devices need to have a lot of adjustment options.

I don't know the name, but at CES this year a company showed off lenses that work like the sets at the optician only managed by software. So it watches you watching stuff, works out how long/near sighted you are, then focuses in. Meaning no prescription necessary and multiple users can use the same thing. It seems a short leap from that to other types of movement and adjustment, that would enable them to deal with your needs, as well as other less common issues than near/short sight. I hope that you get to enjoy some of this at some point in the near future.

As someone who's been buying and trying VR headsets since the DK1 was released, this is the 3rd of three major milestones that I've witnessed: Valve figuring out accurate room-scale tracking (enabling VR gaming as we know it), Facebook/Meta figuring out how to make a cost-affordable wireless headset, and now Apple figuring out an actually intuitive VR-based operating system and controller-less input method while eliminating the screendoor effect. This is not an incremental improvement, it's the biggest leap since DK1.

I work as a nondestructive test engineer and I do a lot of industrial x-ray CT scans and a lot of ultrasound inspection work. What I would like is to have AR capability allowing me to overlay our test results (CT scan data, models, ultrasound c-scan or tomographic models, ultrasound s-scans, etc.) with the actual hardware we're evaluating. Being able to "hold" data like that, especially if you have the physical part to go with it, would go a long way in a lot of the design/dev/RCCA/other investigations we do. Especially since I do end up spending a lot of time converting the information into other modalities, since a lot of people REAAAAAAALLLLY struggle with some of the data presentations.

@@beayn Promo videos tend to be highly curated, so who knows what the actual status of that is. At the end of the day, implementation is key and some consensus between Microsoft, downstream groups/corps implementing the features, market conditions, and hardware maturity would have to align for that to happen. I could see some implementation finding its way into an open source tool like Paraview or into an upstart company like Lumafield that it trying to further differentiate itself in the market before it gets implemented en masse. More likely, I see this trickling into medicine first and then into industry, as that seems to be the more common route for tools like CT and ultrasound. However, Microsoft, if you have something in the background related to this and read this message... I'd be happy to test it for you.

I'll be honest, on the subject of the "ready player one future", I don't think that's ever happening in the way that some companies would have us believe. Stories like Ready Player One, fall into the very common trapping of thinking that a new technology won't be a part of the future, but the entire focus of the future. We've seen this time and time again within loads of fields, people assumed that Reading would replace Memorization, Radio would replace Reading, Television would replace Radio, Games would replace Television and so forth, but these things never replaced what came before, they just took over a niché that they did better in, but none of the other areas. So I think that this is certainly going to change the world (though to be honest, I'm not sure if this product will be the one to do so), but not as thoroughly as some techies would have us believe. Personally I probably won't get this specific VR/AR headset, mostly 'cause I predominantly use Windows products, but even without that caveat I still don't think I'd get it, as it's just still too early I believe.

It will inevitably make the experience somewhat less social, which defeats the purpose of the social experience in the first place. I think they will be used for things like learning, VR team meetings, analyzing product chains, visualizing people being in places we can't irl, but I can't see it being used in scenarios outside this in reality.

And yet a lot of people live their entire lives online. Instead of bars they’re meeting partners on dating apps. Instead of grocery shopping they’re ordering from Doordash. Instead of talking to their friends in person they’re on Instagram or FaceTiming. They’re attending virtual concerts, socializing in video games, and working from home. Instead of reading a book to learn something or grabbing a newspaper to read the headlines, they just pull out their phones. My phone is now my flashlight, alarm clock, measuring stick, level, calendar, camera, notepad. It’s where I learn and read, play games, make friends. It’s where I apply for jobs. It’s where my relationships begin and sometimes end. It’s where I store all my memories. It’s scary to think about how much of my life I have on this device, how dependent I am on it. I think if there ever is a future where people live in some kind of simulation, it wouldn’t happen all at once. It might take like another century to get there and would be a cumulative result of a bunch of technology advancements, not just a single headset or device. But doesn’t it feel like we’re slowly inching closer to that?

As I move towards retirement, I think of how I might have wanted this when I used to have to do site visits of large construction projects like public libraries & multi unit residential projects. Even now on the smaller projects I take on, I have to have set of drawings, a red pen & walk through a project checking & making notes & taking photos. I've tried doing this with an iPad, but I found it lacking so I've gone back to paper & pen. I can imagine having this strapped to my hard hat, taking photos, making notes on a drawing & perhaps starting to work on the site visit report. One caveat; a construction site is a dangerous place, I've seen plenty of injuries & close calls in 30+ years & having to rely on a set of camera lens & low light being an issue could spell trouble.

I didn't expect a commercial. Ugh... I expected a lot more from you. If you're after utility from a VR/AR headset, both the Quest 3 and the XReal Air 2 are going to better meet that need. It's not even close. The Air 2 can easily add two or more additional screens to any computer, not just a Mac. It also looks and feels like a pair of sunglasses. You can even wear it on a plane without anyone noticing. The VP gives you ... just one screen, a mirror of your Mac. The Quest 3 will give you as many displays as your computer and network can handle. If you're interested in "spacial computing" the Vision Pro is a non-starter. The Quest 3 delivers on the productivity promise with a surprisingly polished experience. With the right apps, it's everything people want from the Vision Pro without the compromises. The Air 2 is clearly the future, but it's very much a beta product at the moment. As the software improves, I expect it will get more use, not less. When Apple announced an AR headset, I fully expected something like the XReal Air. It seemed strange to me that they went with an ordinary VR headset. To now see the software limited the way it is really makes me wonder if everything is ok in Apple land. Even the Vision Pro case is oddly designed. If you haven't seen it yet, it's absolutely massive. Where the Air 2 will easily slip into a carry on, the VP case must become your carry on. What were they thinking?

I guess that depends on how you thinking about it. You can easily buy TVs that cost more than double the AVP, which the AVP is arguably better at watching content on. That's assuming you don't give credit to the AVP for doing anything else. I think value for money is highly subjective, and the "consumer" space does get pretty expensive at times. A first class ticket on a commercial airliner is still a consumer offering. This point is even further underlined when you consider most companies won't pay for first class tickets, meaning only consumers are buying them, and one of these tickets can cost you as much as an AVP. Also, first class doesn't make you rich, it's not like that's anywhere nearly as expensive as owning a private plane, or even chartering a flight.

Yeah, it makes more sense if the headset itself is treated as a display and sensor array that can connect to nearby compute "bricks" wirelessly. That might even be how we get to replace phones, instead of a phone in your pocket you just have a compute brick that can interface with whatever HMD you have. That would allow them to make the headset itself vastly lighter and smaller, which is important as many people want something extremely light and non-obtrusive. Talking something the size of an earpiece. Would also be great if it could connect to larger sources of compute power like your desktop as well.

I appreciate the thoughtful dissection and contrasting between what it is, isn't, could be, should be, and will be. I only have one major point of contention: comfort of the solo knit band. It's completely false that it's only wearable for 30-45 minutes. I wear it all day with that band and it works just fine with only minor discomfort which I think would apply to having any AR/VR headset on your face all day. More specifically, the dual loop band is a more of an inconvenience if you have a good amount of hair than the weight distribution or compression introduced by the solo knit band. Hence why Apple includes more than one light seal cushion thickness with it. It seems more likely to me that such a complaint stems from the light seal or light seal cushion not being sized correctly. It's also possible that some people need to exercise their necks; no joke. As someone with actual diagnosed cervical spine issues, I can attest to the issue more likely stemming from improper fitment/strength/anatomical features (yeah, how your face is shaped). It's nearly impossible to create something that fits every face shape. Just think about how certain styles of glasses or headphone styles don't fit well or are uncomfortable for certain people. So, I wouldn't be so quick to write-off the solo knit band.

I always appreciate how you leave the decision up to us, Matt. You deliver on both sides of the argument in every video that I watch of yours. It's an interesting take on the Apple Vision Pro and I think you nailed it with the connectivity of Apple devices pushing this headset into a realm of usability that no other headset can offer. As a follower and user of these HMD's since the Oculus DK1, this has been the first that has the ecosystem built around it. At the end of the day though, this is still a mixed reality device, not an AR device as they wish to market it under. My Meta Quest Pro can technically deliver the same concept of this augmented reality future Apple wants to promise, yet it still collects dust with the rest of the collection. At the ridiculous price point for an item that will quickly lose its novelty, I personally believe the investment would be better spent on a device with an actual transparent display like a HoloLens or Magic Leap, although their consumer ecosystem may not be nearly on par with Apple.

I think the multiple virtual displays are interesting to explore. Yes, I can have a dozen tabs on my browser. Yes, I can have virtual desktops on my Windows PC. But they require me to look and click, and look again (- assuming there is no shortcut). With multiple screens, it becomes a turn of the head. For example I might have Spotify running in the background: a song comes up that makes me want to change the playlist: when I‘m on the PC, that means I Alt-Tab to Spotify from the game I am playing: alternatively I have Spotify running on my tablet, and I literally look down. With VR multiple screens are just a turn of the head away. When „Elite Dangerous“ came out, people made literal cockpits at home. Turn your head and look at the screen that controls one of the subsystems, then look ahead again. I bet it makes for pretty realistic flight sims, where you actually look at different instrument panels.

That is the most impressive experience I think I have ever had on a computing device. My question was, at the price could this be your only computer? Could it replace your iPad and your tv as well? If it could then the price is more palatable. Right now, I concluded no, but it’s not as far away as I would have expected. Maybe version 2 or 3. This would also be a price linked issue of course. If they bring out an SE version for half the price with the vast majority of the functionality for, say 60% of the price then it would be very tempting.

I am still not convinced. Comfort wise, I work 100% from home and I have a setup computer system with multiple screen but when I am off, I am off... I don't want to be able to work from everywhere at all times and as much as I can understand the concept, I am not willing anyway to carry the charger/battery with me all the time (which is similar to carrying a computer around anyway). I rather prefer having a comfortable working space INCLUDING good furniture! (nice chair, bicycle desk on the side so I just don't sit but also work out a little bit while working etc...). Cat wise... I feel you! We have 6 at home and it can be challenging on ANYTHING dangling here and there. Definitely being able to work from a virtual keyboard might be helpful when you have cats competing to sit on your laps. Still I wonder, if the cats see you moving you hands around, might they think you want to play with them and jump at your hands? To me the only real missed experience might be the movie experience but being in a theatre adds also the public reaction. I know we tend to ignore this or even dislike some customer's over the top reactions but still, to me it is part of the experience, there is a human connection and energy in a theatre I enjoy too. Not to mention that it is so easy to consume video contents now that we don't always appreciate the work to produce it, making the effort to go to the theatre and doing it less often makes it more enjoyable to me too. Nowadays "let watch a movie" doesn't sound anymore like a privilege but like a way to pass time without effort, which I do all the time but still I am worried also that such shared time will become a personal time only and will decrease even further people real life interactions.

Having worked on VR during the 1990s, I think strapping a device on your face causes so many problems that it rules out a lot of use cases. I especially tend to sweat in these things, and while I can spend 16 hours in front of a real screen, with an HMD I tend to remove it as soon as the task I use it for is completed. I have not used the Apple Vision Pro yet, but it is still a device hugging my face strapped around my head, and a pretty heavy one. Another problem I have is that all objects appear optically at infinity, and I had hoped headset technology would get to the point where the lens focus is adapted to the distance of the objects you are looking at, but even the Vision Pro does not have that feature, and I don't like the strain this puts on my eyes/brain.

I've tried nearly every consumer HMD (head-mounted display), and some that are intended for commercial use only, and they all have one thing in common: The issue isn't the hardware, it's _everything you need to support_ the hardware. 1) *Computer chips* simply aren't fast enough at a small enough form factor to support high quality content on a headset that isn't tethered to a computer. 2) *Tethering to a computer instead* always feels awkward, and bad, and you inherently can't do a lot with a huge cable attached to you. 3) *Batteries* die, for controllers too, and for some reason, none of these manufacturers have tried to make a _hot_ swappable battery. 4) *Locomotion* simply doesn't work, and it _won't_ until we have an extremely heavy duty omnidirectional treadmill or something like it. 5) *Content* that uses VR in a meaningful way is shallow and lacking because the things above limit development 6) *Money* isn't being spent on this tech because the content is missing, so consumer demand is deemed to be low Really issues #5 and #6 are a vicious cycle, if we could get past that and have a company really sink time and money into amazing VR content and hardware on a consistent basis, that might solve the whole thing.

Meta and Apple are both sinking tens of billions of dollars into it, if that doesn't break that cycle nothing will. I think the issue with your framing though is that these are problems for different use cases, but not all of them are problems for every use case. Take VR fitness. I don't care about controller or headset battery life to a point, and I don't need advanced processing. Supernatural has pretty much solved this entire use case for me, and it made buying a quest worth it alone. For office work, I just need external displays, so the screen tech is all that matters. Tethering isn't an issue, nor is on board processing or controllers. I'm excited for the Immersed Visor for that reason, and the vision pro seems like it's also at the level where I'd use it if it supported multiple displays (and if it were cheaper). For other use cases, AR in particular, I think something like Google glass would suffice but it's not ideal, and we need better tech for it to be really usable. It's not like there isn't anything that's actually ready now though, or that any of these are completely intractable problems.

Matt perfectly articulates the many very useful functions for something like this, but as someone that lives overseas away from friends and family, often works remote and also enjoys things like live sports, I can see SO many great functions for this.

In ten years the tech will be cheaper, better and much smaller, seamless and last longer, however, that is not now.

For me, that seamless integration with the Apple ecosystem is enough to make it worth it. Being able to mirror my MacBook and have VP apps running beside it while I’m in a hotel on travel for work is a game changer for productivity. But that’s specific to me and my needs. When I’m at home, I’d much rather hop on my Mac Studio with dual monitors. I can totally see why this isn’t worth it to most people. But to me, it checks a bunch of boxes that other devices don’t. For example, I love 3D movies and wish that the tv industry didn’t abandon the tech. This brings it back in an even better way. As someone that has had one, I can attest that buying a high res 3D home theater setup costs much more than the $4k I paid for this. One could argue that this alone justifies the cost, assuming you don’t mind watching content alone.

Agreed. Computing on board is great. But when you already have to holster a battery pack, linked by antiquated Lightning cables of shame and degradation, why not just chuck the video through that and let me put it on a backpack or one of those mini-bandolier style ones people use now when they absolutely want a bag, but don't want ten litres of free space in it so have to have a Peak Designs 4 litre bag slung across their chest. You could also then have your choice of batteries and not be limited to a brief useful life. I'm convinced this is a developers only, office chair and desk product and they're just not brave enough to say it. Anyone who isn't a developer is just a beta tester paying for the privilege and they're hoping to get feedback from those people which would inspire actual developers to create a use case for it. At which point, you'll see the industry boom. Apple literally don't have a clue what it's for.

I am a big early adopter of everything tech, from screens to drones to home automation and pretty much everything else you can imagine. While I have and use an iPhone and iPad, half of the apps I must use are PC only and the other half are available on PC, so I use a PC. That isn't really my choice and I can't change it. As it also is now (though, with smaller screens) I can have my iPhone, iPad, and PC with multiple screens all accessible and usable simultaneously. As it also is now the VP would get me half the way there, with no practical way to get the other half, which would be at least maddening, and in reality a deal killer. Cost is not my greatest concern, but until I can reasonably tap into a PC (even with the use of a physical keyboard and mouse) the VP just won't get me there and would end up just being a large personal TV

Even if you look past the luxury price, the biggest problem with these is the fact you have to always have to wear something very, very unwieldy on your head. For me, I still haven't found anything that even comes close to a keyboard, mouse and lots of physical screen real estate, and I started my computing experience in 1979. Also, even with a touch screen you get physical feedback. You don't get any of this when tapping against air, and this type of feedback (without yet another unwieldy add-on) just isn't possible with our current technology and may never be so.

I expect haptic gloves to be introduced (5+ years down the line) which will solve this, since many prototypes already exist. But besides, most of the input is done by tapping your fingers together, not tapping on the air. Tapping your fingers gets you similar "feedback" as tapping a surface... and instead of having to constantly move your arm/hand around, your pointing device is your gaze. The input method is hands down the strongest feature of this, just like the input method on the iPhone was its strongest feature back in 2007, and the input method on a Macintosh was its strongest feature back in 1984

I honestly don't think "spatial computing" is going to be a big thing. Sure, VR is cool for games and videos, I just do not see the utility beyond that. It's replacing hardware with software, essentially, where I could have physical buttons, screens, and the like; instead it would be emulated by software. This might be fine for some but if you're actually serious about doing anything then you'll know that physical things almost always work orders of magnitude better than virtual things, for example touchscreen keyboards compared to mechanical keyboards.

The director over our area was always thrilled because it looked impressive on paper, but the level of user effort to "navigate" a virtual 3D learning environment which literally only brought you to static HTML content was very much "style over substance." The idea of limiting my engagement in the real world in order to immerse myself virtually is, quite frankly, a recipe for a panic attack.

Great video. Hits on so many of the same thoughts I've had. I've been using the AVP for a few days now, and as a non-Apple ecosystem person (all my other tech is either PC or Android), the promise of the AVP is still plentiful, and for me, that "spatial computing" era is here. I think another factor that often gets left behind is the evolution of audience. What was deemed interesting or novel years earlier, becomes desired as the concept matures. So while folks experiencing the AVP of today may not want what it offers (or want to spend that sort of $$$), I think the promise of what is to come is being seeded, and eventually at some point, matches what's delivered. Suffice to say, we need to be here before we can get there.

The 'Halo' strap design, first popularised by the PSVR, but subsequently used on many Windows Mixed Reality headsets and the Meta Quest Pro, is almost certainly more comfortable than either of the 'clamp to your face' designs offered by Apple for the Vision Pro. With the weight carried on the forehead, it feels like something you're wearing, rather than something you're clamped into. The after market Halo strap that I have for my Quest 2 was an absolute game changer in terms of comfort, and apparently the same strap can be easily adapted to the Vision Pro. I'd highly recommend trying one, mine only cost about $50. One trick that I use to improve the accuracy of both hand tracking and inside-out tracking in a dark room with my Quest 2 is a simple 5W infrared flood. It means that a room that's dark in the visual spectrum can be flooded with more than enough IR light for accurate tracking. Since the halo strap means the headset is suspended in front of my face, I can remove the facial interface entirely, giving me a real life view of my keyboard, mouse and/or HOTAS, which all light up themselves.

Your point about movies - 3D should look better on these headsets because there's no need to halve the resolution or refresh rate. The best 3D you can get at home is not as good as theatres, and theatres by virtue of frame-packing into one screen cannot be as good as having two high-res screens strapped to your face. That said, I think Zuck would be really smart to release a 3D movie store on Meta Quest. The market was not ready for that before but 3D 4K/8K HDR is to me the obvious next thing and Meta @ $500ish (not $4k) could own that and sell headsets until AVP is more accessible. (ETA: pretty sure the Quest doesn't have the contrast for HDR but if it had OLEDs like version 1...)

If it wasn't for the high price tag I'd be using a Vision Pro today just for the virtual giant screen(s). I sometimes travel to visit relatives interstate and have to bring my home office with me: that's a 27" screen, along with a bunch of other stuff. With the Vision Pro I'd be able to ditch the screen and not take up valuable table space wherever we're staying. I'd also be able to get stuff done in the motels we stay at on the way to where we're going and it's not going to be the same effort as unpacking the car to get the screen out, set it up, use it, then pack it away and repack the car. I'm also a fan of "virtual desktops" on Windows, Mac and Linux where the Vision Pro would give me all those desktops visible by just turning my head. Let's see where this tech goes. The obvious iterations on this immediate version are putting the battery and some of the electronics on the headgear as a counterbalance to the screen, and eventually cutting down to a "Vision Air" which is pass-through all the time and ideally with a transparent screen, much like what Google Glass was intended to become all those years ago.

I'm glad vision pro is here. isee it as Apple wanting to replace the laptop.. or be a different option. so i think it's a good chapter in the technology but to say the future is here? too excited. looks good overall but I'm not an apple user and 3.5k usd is too much for simple curiosity & not using apple computers. but i hope this succeeds cause it'd be great if this form factor keeps improving!

My best friend recently died of ALS. As the disease progressed, she became 100% dependent on eye trackers to be able to communicate or do tasks, such as banking. This left her in a pretty limited world, which was often far more limited than it needed to be, because medical caregivers kept placing the tracker in the wrong place, so it couldn't see either her eyes or the small laptop positioned in front of her on a tray. Worse, she couldn't both watch TV and have access to communication, and she would have to wait for someone to come along to move things around if she wanted to switch activities. Something like this would have been game changing - though after she reached complete paralysis, there would have needed to be an eyes-only option for controlling click actions and switching screens. Moving her fingers or turning her head was impossible in the last year.

Very fair observations. Objectively it's the best hardware spec in a headset. Not just double the resolution of the Quest 3 and even more than the MicroLEDs of Big Screen Beyond, but also the first to have 10-bit HDR panels, so you're getting true HDR 1-billion colors, that's like 5x the color depth of other headsets, even Big Screen Beyond's MicroLEDs, which are NOT HDR.. You always have to pay for ultra high-end specs. On the bleeding edge, on the high-side, even a 10% boost in quality can cost you 2x the next tier down. Compare the features of a maxed out Toyota to a Lexus, etc..... The bottom line is a lot of people spent $3500-$4000, expecting more than what was advertised. I suspect a good 15-25% of those purchases by VR enthusiast. VR has up until Vision Pro has been focused on gaming and a device like Vision Pro and it's very casual gaming, is never going to appeal to that group

This is the same - it fits into my world for some work and entertainment. And my travel is going to be so much more enhanced. The other thing most reviewers ( including yourself ) don't mention is reading. I love reading on this and stuff like comic books or graphic novels come to life in ways no other medium before can do.

Best review so far! I’m a long time Quest user and agree with most of said, except the toy aspect of the Quest. I get it, but I think that’s doing a bit of a disservice to the Quest because of its price and being plastic. The utility is very much there. I’ve used my Quest3 for a full 8 hour work day just to see if it could be done and to see if it brought any benefits to the table. Using Virtual Desktop over WiFi 6 with a wireless keyboard, I was able to work with 4 desktops all day while I roamed around to my couch, bed, and front porch (on a cloudy day). A facial interface fan is essential, and swappable battery packs too. In the Quest world these things are possible. Apple might get there, but I don’t think they will because of their thumbing their nose at many established VR conventions. I think they’ll refuse to adopt things like 4 desktops for “apple reasons” for example. I’ll be interesting to see how it goes though.
