NO ONE talks about the durability of that lense/glass. what happens if you drop from 2 feet to 6 feet or even 7 feet for taller people? Is it scratch-resistant as you know kids or pets might their hands/paws on them? Is it water-proof when you drop into the tube or sink or someones spill the water/drink over it? How much to replace the lense/glass? So many questions. I’m sure Apple will answer them next year. You’re welcome people

Vision Pro, Vision Poor
I once fell in love with a story about Steve Jobs. I have no way to confirm it actually happened, or happened this way, but it is a rare instance where I am happy to perpetrate the myth over facts since it is such an important story for how Apple got to where they are, that the narrative caries with it so much more weight than the truth.
The story goes that some engineers showed up in Jobs’ office with a one-off prototype for the iPod. It was bulky, about the size of a Sony Walkman, and could not fit into the pocket of Steve’s Levi’s 501 classic fit jeans.
“It needs to be smaller, thinner,” Steve said.
“There’s no room left to make it smaller!” Decried the engineers, at which Steve replied by dropping this device, which was the only prototype and represented probably millions of dollars in R&D, into his office’s fish tank.
“You see those air bubbles…?” Steve asked of them.
In the 80’s, Steve’s behavior was barely tolerated, and in that era, a lot of CEO’S and “pre-social influencers” most likely got away with a lot worse. It is exactly that ability, to create a space so toxic, and so full of pressure, that it absolutely wrings every bit of ingenuity out of you, as if it were necessary for continued survival. This is exactly what Apple needs to take the so-called vision pro to where it needs to be, and to take its place as the rightful heir to the iPhone throne.
In the face of out-of-control size, both the bulk on the device and the hefty bulk of its price tag, apple has invented something that cannot do what it is supposed to, and needs to do. Put simply, the size, mass and price tag, get in the way.
One might be forgiving of Apple, since it is not often that they will go to market with a first gen product like this…. But then apple gave us all the finger…
Everyone agrees that Google was ahead of their time when they tried to develop the Google Glass. Everyone. Truly, they could’ve taken some time to go back to the drawing board and relaunch, but they didn’t. So forever they are tainted by the advent of “glass holes” in this arena, and apple is well on their way to follow them into disgrace.
I’ll cut straight to the chase: if it is on my face, I don’t want to interact with it. Google glass suffered from eye twitches and gesture navigation at a time when people still had confusion over if you were talking on Bluetooth or to yourself, and while the bare-hand pinch navigation is a def improvement and would be handy in some kind of setup, customization, or calibration menu, it has no place in everyday use. I want to look at an automobile and just SEE the specs on it, year make and model. Hell, give it a few years and a small computer onboard newly-produced cars could prob feed to you liquid levels, mileage, and engine diagnostics. This is how I use my eyes. I just look at things, examine their details. This is exactly what vision should aid me in, be a tool for. I shouldn’t have to “pinch its buttcheek” to entice it to do better the work it is supposedly ascribed to do.
And then there is the form factor. Geeze, I’d pay serious money I do not have (millennial, duh) to be a fly on the wall in an alternate timeline where some hapless engineer brought that massive, gigantic eyesore into Steve Jobs’ office. I suspect there’d have been great turmoil for all parties involved, Steve included.
To summarize what i think about the new Vision Pro? It needs to be dropped into a fish tank. And not for any reason other than this: do better, Apple.

That was 10 years ago! and $1500 and it did not do the same thing. It's funny how sure of themselves they are.

The fact that some people are willing to pay $3499 for Apple's vision pro, is the living proof that Phineas Taylor Barnum was right when he said : ''There is a sucker born every minute! ''

All of this has been tried by other companies, many times. And all of it failed. And all of it was at a much lower price point. This is apple showing up so very late to a game that is already over that they can seem innovative to the fanboys that weren't paying attention for the last 15 years.
