  • With Apple Vision Pro now available for pre-order, there's a lot of new information going around! Today I want to cut through the narrative and show you why I'm taking a chance on Vision Pro, why I bought 1tb Vision Pro, and why I think Apple's vision of the future is more likely to succeed than other futuristic devices like the Humane AI Pin and Rabbit R1

    • @jackdominiak445

      A developer would be stupid to develop anything for less than 5 million users.
      There's the problem, not that developers are miffed with Apple.
      Luke is right, it's a product for people that want to do what they do now, in a different way, but that is a niche market and the P3 issue might be a huge problem for content creators, which is the biggest market for this product at the moment, the mirroring at 720p is also a huge issue.
      I suspect a lot of these 1st gen VP's will be going back within 14 days and Apple will only have themselves to blame for launching a half cooked product 😏

      ​@@jackdominiak445 As VR user I would say that VR\AR always loosing comparing to good monitor. Even if you have perfect screen in VR, it is still heavy and uncomfortable with very small benefits. It is cool novelty, but wears off fast. So if this is a use case then people will be disappointed.
      VR is good for VR gaming, for socializing, for 3D modelling

      I see the potential of AR/VR - but I don't see what the apple device will do way better than a quest 3 for 500 bucks. Yeah, resolution. Well. Is this worth 3 grand extra? And at the end of the year the "consumer" AR/VR devices will be ahead again in resolution. (and I say this as an Apple Fanboy with a lot of Apple devices at home)

      @superzero4250 4 месяца назад

      @@clark2109The main difference is a VR headset requires you to connect to a computer. Vision Pro is the Computer. Which is why it basically has everything an iPad Pro has and more. A person can buy three or five monitors and figure out how to wire and display them, or they can use the Vision Pro and have a much more streamlined experience. I personally thought about a monitor setup with a large ultrawide display and a couple of smaller 32” or 27” monitors. So instead I decided on the Vision Pro instead. No longer have to fret about rearranging my desk. Besides the possibilities will be exciting to explore and discover…

      No MMS messaging was brutal. The work arounds for texting a picture were not convenient. Couldn’t record video without jailbreak app. Stuff I was used to doing on my previous flip phone. The rest of the phone (3G) was great. The 2G network was stupid slow and imo was the biggest thorn for the 2g model. With ios 3.0, much of the issues were resolved. I hope that Vision Pro will be good enough to make it to a 2.0, I can’t wait to try it (didn’t order).

    I wouldn’t say the original iPhone sucked. When it came out, we didn’t even know that a background was possible or needed, nor a front facing camera, etc. The first iPhone was absolutely groundbreaking and blew my mind. I wasn’t picking it apart on release.had a look back, obviously, the newest technology is groundbreaking and 1,000,000 miles ahead of the original iPhone. But it’s not fair to break out that comparison at the beginning of your video. It did not suck. It changed the world.

      Wow. That's nice and low res. Having seen 720p upscaled to 4K a lot already, even with the best algorithms it's blurry and unpleasant to look at for reading text.
      This reminds me of how Apple kept using the same old 720p webcam in their laptop products for about 12 years before retiring it. No wait they're still using it! For as long as the M1 Air is on sale, it's still got a camera dating back to over a decade ago. That's some innovation and bang for your buck right there 😂

      The form factor is fundamentally flawed, correct. It's not a phone you can put in your pocket, it's not a laptop you can put in your briefcase or bag. You can't really properly interact with the outside world because it's strapped to your head.
      As someone who moved from glasses to contact lenses, I can genuinely say not having something resting on my face for day to day living is a huge boon. I used to break glasses all the time when I was playing live, which never happens, but was annoying when it did and that was £100 or so to replace not four thousand goddamn dollars 😂

    I really doubt the P3 color gamut not being fully covered is going to be an issue. I mean, are people actually going to edit videos or photos on this thing? I feel like the more important issue is whether or not using your mac on a floating screen is reliable or even enjoyable

    Ordered 512gb AVP for launch day. Nervous whether it will be great or meh. But thinking it will be similar to how I felt with iPhone 2G on day one-blown away to have full web browser in a handheld with multitouch and phone.
    Anyway, one way I am thinking about it is this…. It will probably be the BEST imaginable way to watch movies/TV (alone), better than ANY high end OLED TV home theatre. And we don’t think twice about spending that kind of money on a high end big screen for a home theatre.

    I wouldn't have problem dropping $3,500 on it if I had a use case for it. But I really don't.
    I also wear a helmet 2-3 hours per day for 5 days+ a week. A heavy and hot full face helmet in tropical weather and I am OK with it.
    But half an hour in a VR headset in an air conditioned room, and I feel like I want to die. I also had a Sony HMZ-T1, which is much smaller than a VR headset. Absolutely miserable experience for me as well.
    A use case would be if it was a REALLY GOOD, light VR headset that worked on PC and PS5, with a wide peripheral vision with no unfocused spots on the side. Even though I use a Mac (Studio, M2, Macbook Air, iPad pro), there are no games or apps I would use, and 100% sure it won't work on PS5, and 99% sure it won't work on PC, so for me it's completely useless.
    If it was an AR device, and it would be the size of the Google Glass *thing*, then I would take it with a monochrome display if it was able to put useful information on my vision ...... how about speed, or people's names (I never remember), or directions to a location .... no missed call notifications please :) or every spam I get from my own service provider daily ....
    Just my 2c .... again ... cool, nice, I have ZERO use case for it.... maybe movies, but lately I barely get interested in a movie as much as sit down in front of a big screen... I just end up watching mostly everything on my iPad (12.9) with headphones... or my desktop 32'' ProART displays.... (though the HDR is horrid crap on them)

    To me it seems like "vision pro" only has 2 valid use cases where it is actually objectively better than a traditional screen. 1. When flying/taking a train. 2. When you want a home theater, but you're renting and/or cannot afford a 150" TV

    Hot take: The OG iPhone only sucks if you compare it to where phones are today. All the short comings you mentioned are valid but what the iPhone did better than anything else on the market was ease of use. No stylus, fluid scrolling, big easy to select buttons and intuitive gestures. 🤔 you could also use all of that to describe the Vision Pro for those that have used it. It feels magical. I know that sounds like hyperbole, but it’s not all you have to do is look at what you want and tap your fingers together. So if AR/VR is going to be a product category for the foreseeable future, Apple Vision Pro is the product that’s going to make it accessible to everyone not just hardcore people. As far as the price goes, there are three factors one everything at Apple is expensive, to there are zero compromises when compared to other headsets, that’s going to cost more, and finally this is just an opinion but you’re basically getting a MacBook Air M2 and as many pro display XDR as you want for 3500 bucks sounds like a deal to me.

    I honestly think the most exiting thing about the Vision Pro will be seeing you review it . Small ears , not to tall and enthusiastic about many things Apple . For me as a tall chap with large ears this particular item is just another way I can bang my head on low lying structures , scrunch my ears up for far greater wrinkles than an air pod pro or the likes and pretend that vision is a superior sense than sound . Having said all this if it wasn’t for such tech I probably wouldn’t now be sitting on the greatest collection of music play list compilations , specifically tailored to my own tastes and bye my own hand along with many new musical appreciation techniques , only possible in the Apple echo system .

    "The iPhone when it came out, sucked." - Disagree. I was there, it was mind-blowing - futuristic even. In hindsight - sure, I agree 100%. VP is a different beast entirely. Nothing screams innovation rather than iteration. AVP is an iterative product, it's not innovative in the way the OG iPhone was. That's not a bad thing, per-say. But IT IS different. The AVP is better compared to the Apple Watch. It lacked features, it was iterative - in that it was a big step (not a leap) above the competition. With luck, AVP will be the same. To me, this is the difference between Steve's and Tim's approach. Steve would have swapped in a M3 Pro (imo) and gone for the wow factor. Steve launched the iPhone with as much tech as possible (up to the last minute), Tim takes the longer (safer) path. Both likely end the same, but the "magic" isn't there to the degree it would have been with Steve. Don't compare this to the iPhone, for that reason alone. Compare it to the Watch.

    Great video. I must admit I find it difficult sometimes to understand some tech journalists. You spent almost $4k on a device but used 7 out of 12 minutes discussing your reservations and anxieties about the device. Every possible or potential negative that could exist was covered. I’ve been a consumer of various goods over the years of “top selling” products and only Apple devices have reviewers reading scripts that feel like “terms of service agreements” within “CYA” videos. No other company, not with Tesla cars or Sony cameras, Dyson vacuums or DJI mics can leave reviewers acting like liability lawyers nervously babbling about real or imagined potential downsides like Apple.
