Apple Vision Pro review: magic, until it’s not - The Verge (www.youtube.com)

This seems like a decent, even-handed review, despite the title suggesting it might fall into the Apple marketing a little.

Also wild to me that even with its integration into Apple's systems it can't handle multi-monitor setups (currently anyway), which seems like a dead obvious integration with this headset.

Just gotta point out how dumb it looks in use...

Par for the course with VR/MR headsets tbh. Beyond these finally getting down to a glasses form factor, which is still a fair way off it seems, I don't think there's much that can be done to improve the look of the current form factor when in use.

regardless of how small they make it. they have to block out all the external light so it will always be goggles not glasses and if people knows your glasses have a screen they will never trust your giving them 100% of your attention. so it will always feel isolated.

I think the biggest flaw with this wear VR 24/7 is computing works best when you share it with others. People want to share with people in the real world. I would rather see your real face than a video game character no matter how good it looks.

Though in fairness, the dudes looking a little scraggly and it's an unflattering angle.

It’s worth noting the production quality, thoroughness and insightful copywriting of this video review. This video is an outstanding bit of tech journalism. Bravo, the verge!
