If anyone needed another reason to avoid Apple Vision Pro, this video is it.

[profX-]

not the guy in the top hat saying that facetime in a vision pro is “too weird.”

[SmithfamilyCLT]

Last guy’s quote was the kicker. ”I’m not ready to have this on all the time. Physically and Socially…they are not prepared for a cyborg to enter the room.”

I’ve had it since launch and still every time impressed. Entertainment is a most case but mac pairing has been game changing and looking at your photos and videos is pretty next level. I just feel sooo dumb wearing it by people. Doing the dishes has never been the same though lol

[FFCVenom]

All the hate comments haven’t even seen the video. They’re mostly positive about the device. Only price and certain features need to get better. Wait till this thing is in the third version. You don’t wanna know how good it’ll be.

Apple made a nice VR headset and people think it’s some amazing new tech. Way way cheaper options available, VR is cool for about 1-2 days then it’s like blah. Our VR head set is somewhere under the bed I think, not really sure where it is.

6 months later no one cares and you realize you should have got a quest 3

I’m an Apple fan but this is next level weirdness of Apple fanboism. I think each and everyone in this video convinced themselves to buy a Vision Pro and are still trying to find a use for it.

If it doesn’t come with that dude’a top hat as an accessory, I’m not interested.

[Armando_Aranda]

It’s still worth it to see how ridiculous people look when they wear and use these things in public.

[mangodoc]

Two things kill it. 1) price 2) DORK factor. I’m a DORK (and all in on Apple) and I’m self-conscious about wearing the Oculus near the windows in my own home. In public… LMAO.

[Jayden-lrmm]

Funny how this started out being phenomenal and now starting to quiet down and not mentioned at all

[jjbonta]

I'm all for the future of XR and I love that Apple joined the space even though this headset is questionable at best for the average consumer. I just don't understand why technological improvements get so much hate, even with a company like Apple.

[MVIVN]

For me, as someone who’s been using VR headsets for years, I liked the hype around it because I thought it would result in an explosion of new VR apps and experiences for ALL vr headsets, but it hasn’t had any noticeable impact at all. Meta and the Quest 3 still seems to be the epicentre of all things VR at the moment, no one even talks about the Vision Pro at all anymore. Plus, they’ve taken way too long to launch it in other countries so people around the world who were eagerly anticipating it have lost interest.

[oiausdlkasuldhflaksjdhoiausydo]

The cringe is off the charts. Do they want to tank apple on purpose?

[kjw-vwxr]

Just a fancy, expensive, and experimental accessory for Apple Echo system users...😮

[smittyvanjagermanjenson]

The best part of this video is that guy who was wearing Meta Ray bans and saying he'd prefer something more like them. Thats Apples competition 100%. Thats actually the product that gets produced because of these Quest and Vision VR systems: AR smart glasses.

[Thrivetribe]

This new crew is weird for the lack of better words

[sashogs]

Got one, love the vision os but I'm going to return the face brick!

It's like a fancy looking brick on my face, vision os (Vision OS 2 even better) is great which is what these people are really talking about but I can't get immersed or remain immersed because of the weight of a brick on my face unless I get a nerdier headstrap like a halo. So going to return it until we get a vision air or vision pro 2 without some of the gimmicky tech like the front lcd display and hopefully using lighter materials. The battery brick and it's cable is annoying but I rather have an annoying brick in my pocket then on my head! So I'm ok with that surprisingly.
